Here I am again, outside my comfort zone, but we need to keep the conversation going. And, if you read my post ” I don’t usually do this, but…” you’ll know that being controversial is definitely outside my comfort zone. I always left that to my mother.

My new animal print scarf is the ultimate fashion #musthave. Oversized, silk georgette fabric, this animal print scarf is #ontrend and the perfect fall fashion accessory.
