I am an official Yorktown Road fan. The materials are well chosen and the designs are simple and classy with a subtle modern twist. These soft-washed natural linen mini-zip purse and tote are very sweet with a thick and thin pleat touch and natural canvas lining.

If you need a bit more color, they also come in this rich golden yellow, deep orange and dark teal.

Recent unpredictable weather calls for a little thinking ahead. I have a weakness for scarves and you can always find one in my purse, but since one can never have enough accessories, I’m always on the look-out for a new neck jewel. Here’s a great raw scarf by Yorktown Road that I found this weekend while browsing through Etsy (my latest obsession). I like its asymmetrical shape and raw finish. It is made out of fulled, loosely woven wool, which gives it that ribbed texture and soft edges. Black thread is woven together with brown, creating a chic smoky matte black.
