If I was doing a gift guide (which I’m not), this organic cotton scarf by Rubyzaar at Totokaelo would be top on the list of things I’d like to receive ;) Love the colors, love the price ($58), love the company’s ethics…

Must Have: cmarchuska Dyed Scarf

by grechen on December 9, 2009 | SUBSCRIBE | TWITTER | FACEBOOK |

If there’s one thing I’ve learned recently, it’s that even if I think I have enough scarves, I don’t. I’ve gotten in the habit of wearing the same couple of scarves all the time recently, and I love them, but I do sometimes wish I had more colors or styles to choose from.

I found this hand-dyed organic cotton scarf by Cmarchuska at Kaight NYC today, and it was love at first sight. I must admit an irrational love for all things tie-dyed (although I do prefer single-colors over rainbows…), so understand that first, but these are fabulous scarves, ethically made in NY, and affordable at $45 a pop and available in other colors:
