Blogging can create some weird moments. It creates real friendships that span the globe, business opportunities and some funny fashionable moments, like this scarf. A scarf that went across the pond for swap it and wear it.
See it peeking out underneath the rubber gloves?
I received this ridiculously pretty and fun Christmas box from a blogging Secret Santa group I joined last year. Turns out my Secret Santa was an actual friend and she sent this beautiful scarf from California with some other fabulous items. It was such a joy and surprise to open up the box.
Then, a new blog friend Angele The European Malteser in Germany asked if I wanted to swap and style an item together. Absolutely! I immediately styled the scarf my favorite way and sent it off to Angele for her take on it.
The Reveal….
