Shawl Hassles

I guess the red plaid pattern breaks up my usually all-black outfit? I enjoy this shawl but its definitely a hassle to wear around the office – I somehow manage to get it tangled on the arms of my desk chair, doors close on it when I go to and from meeting spaces, and don’t get me started on what happens when I try to use the office sink…


shawl: ModCloth / tunic: Zara / leggings: Spanx / shoes: Aldo / necklace: Stella and Dot

I don't own any shawls, but I have the same problem with sleeves on oversized sweaters. They just seem to get caught on everything, from door handles to drawer knobs to my mail slot when I check the mail. It doesn't stop me wearing them, of course, but every time I do, I wonder when I'm going to figure out how to do it without being such a klutz...
xox,

Haha yea, shawls and capes are fun but they can be such a hassle when you try to do real life things! I also have a sweater with really big bell sleeves. Not ideal for eating, haha

Haha, I understand your plight, sometimes pieces like that seem best suited for lives of leisure, where you are only required to lounge around the house sipping cups of coffee.

Chic on the Cheap

Yes, the shawl - ponchos are a bit of a hassle to wear. The one I keep at work gets tangled in the wheels of my office chair...
