When I first got into thrifting (back when I was just a wee girl of 14 or 15) I came across the Minnesota travel scarf in a thrift store and fell in love. I was smitten and became obsessed with finding more travel scarves. They’re fairly common for thrift stores and it’s pretty easy to come by them, but I just adore how unique they all are. I just love the idea of women collecting these scarves as they traveled back in the 50s and 60s.
P.S. did you see this photoshoot on Elsies blog for Red Velvet? so cute! Maybe someday I’ll make it out to visit the shop:)
it’s always funny what you start collecting while thrifting- I am obsessed with broaches 🙂
I love collecting these scarves, too. Any tips of how to care for them? Some of the have got quite marked over the years. Yours look bright and lovely with good, saturated colours.
