I Blame Grace Jones...

The Snood is back!... apparently.

http://www.fashionbeans.c...the-snood/



I never wore one first time around in the 1980s. This cross between a scarf and giant legwarmer can only really be worn if you aren't afraid of looking like a giant uncut penis with a face.

Worn around the neck, you might just pull-off a retro Duran Duran 1980s ironic vibe.



However, as soon as you pull it up, you run the risk of looking like E.T. in his bicycle basket.



Will anybody here be rocking a snood this Winter?

I was looking at them at Target yesterday...

but I prefer really long scarves instead. It looks fun when it's just draped once around and if it's really cold you can wrap it several times to keep warm. Fashionable AND practical.

I haven't bought any yet but I actually love them (the middle one mostly). I prefer it to having to tie or wrap my scarf around my neck.

I'm just not feeling the snood revival...

I think it all depends on how "striking" your face is.
