For this week’s scarf giveaway, we’re doing something a little different. This scarf wasn’t sent to us by a sponsor but instead thrifted (with love!) by S. in Munich, Germany. We would like to show our appreciation for all your support and thoughtful input during our scarf month (and always) by sending one winner a little package with the above vintage scarf from Germany. This little beauty measures 32 inches on all sides, is a large square, and 100% silk.

If you would like to enter the giveaway, leave us a comment telling us what your favorite item to shop vintage is. For a second chance to win, leave a separate comment telling us how you would wear this scarf or what scarf tying technique you might try on it. This giveaway is open until Sunday, Midnight Central time, after which we will randomly select a winner.

Many of your responded so positively to E.’s and A.’s use of the Neck Scape by Etsy seller BabyEtte, that we are “tickled pink” to be able to offer you this fleecy pink version as our second scarf giveaway. We are Neck Scape converts here at Academichic and we know you will be too, once you give one a try!

To enter the giveaway, leave a comment telling us how you would style this Neck Scape (for ideas visit BabyEtte on Etsy).  For a second chance to win, leave us a separate comment telling us what item of clothing you would like to see us celebrate next month (belts? shoes?). Contest is open until Sunday at Midnight US Central Time. We will randomly chose a winner to announce on Monday.  Be sure to check back, as we will also be offering a “consolation prize.” Good luck!

For our second weekly Friday Study Break Giveaway enter to win one of these versatile Ripple Scarves from Blue Onion Marketplace. We have two scarves up for grabs, and to make things extra special, both of them are colors that have sold out at Blue Onion!

The Scarves:

The ripple scarves are made of a loosely woven acrylic with slightly gathered bands running parallel down the length of the scarf. They can serve as a great light layer and an easy way to add an interesting texture to an outfit.

Putty:

Scarlet:
