There’s something about the color burgundy. A very deep red that resembles blood. Close to purple and a cousin of red. Besides deep, deep blues, burgundy has that closeness with black that I like, that I vibe with it. I prefer all black looks but sometimes I nudge in a pop of color.

A good opportunity to wear my other Burberry cashmere scarf. I have it in black also. I wanted to actually sit somewhere and drink a cup of coffee, but it was actually chilly and my little feet were frozen by the end of it. Nature prevails by the end no matter what. And we as humans will get out of this.
