If the knitted tube scarf was “the” item to have last winter, this spring it is the silk scarf. It is everywhere this season, starting from big brands like Prada, Emilio Pucci, Gucci, and Hermes. And I mean literally everywhere, from clothing, to shoes, to accessories. Check out the items below and tell me what you think:

One of Alexander McQueen’s many unique creations was the Skull Printed Scarf. Putting skulls on an accessory that portrays elegance was unheard of until Lee McQueen did it. And true enough, people and celebrities alike went crazy over this accessory once it hit the shelves. Among the celebrities spotted sporting this neck piece were Keira Knightley, Ashley Olsen, and Nicki Hilton:
