Marc Jacobs seems to have unleashed the animal– or animals– within with his latest scarves. The fashion genius is clearly inspired by beastly shapes, colors and sensibilities while featuring the biggest trends of the season: texture and print.

Running Impala Scarf, $178, Marc by Marc Jacobs

The Running Impala Scarf comes in a beautiful chocolate brown color with hints of orange and green to depict the vast savannah landscape, the playground of the graceful creature. Fringe detail adds a rough yet chic character to the scarf.

Le Mouse Cashmere Scarf, $178.00, Marc by Marc Jacobs

Le Mouse Cashmere Scarf comes in a mouse grey color and features calligraphic sketches of a mouse– squiggly and concentric circles that depict its tiny, scruffy, and bustling nature.

Panthera Scarf, $178, Marc by Marc Jacobs

This Panthera Scarf has a dress version and features the same neo-mod feel to it. From a distance, it looks like a rather childish print but on closer inspection, one realizes that the line of panthers seem to be walking carefully, as if ready to pounce.

Wonderland Scarf, $178, Marc by Marc Jacobs

The Wonderland Scarf, on first glance, doesn’t seem to have any animals in it. It features a rather medieval-type pattern of flowers and fleur-de-Lys– that all conjure a repeating appearance of the proud and beautiful peacock.

The featured scarves are available on Revolve Clothing.

Check out these dazzling extras we’re featuring today. These are not exactly scarves made of fabric, but they do function the same way as scarves do. For instance, the T. Cyia Scarf Necklace from ONE By (as featured in our sister blog, YourNextJewelry) is essentially an open ended multi-strand jewelry that you can wrap around your neck like you would a scarf. In a way, it is like a scarf, only more glamorous and made of two tone plated metal. Can you appreciate?

Now  the other glittering piece we have for you today is from Haute Hippie. It is what it says it is, a fully sequined and fringed scarf belt. You basically wear it around your hips like a sarong; except of course, that it’s too small to be a sarong and is really meant to function as a statement accessory to an otherwise plain outfit. You CAN also wear it around your neck if you want to. What do you think, pretty or pretty useless?

So what do you think of these extras? Would you wear them? Do you think they’re useful, or would you say they’re simply a waste of money? Which among the two would you go for? Both pieces are available at Shopbop if interested.
