Preparing for the cold...

October 13, 2010 5:40 PM

I want a women's burgundy-colored hat, scarf, and gloves set. Please hope me.

I'm looking for a solid-colored set in fleece or wool or something wintery to go with a plaid wool coat. I need it to be available online in the US. Separate items are cool with me as long as they appear to go together fairly well. (I don't know why I'm having such trouble finding what I want, but I think the problem is that there are so many words for "burgundy" that I'm probably missing sets with descriptions like "merlot" and and "wine" and "dark red.")

Try the Lands End teaberry color. I ordered a set as a gift for my sister, and they look burgundy to me. They seem to be a decent quality.

Will berry work? Macys Calvin Klein Set

Calvin Klein set "Pomegranate"

Check out Lands' End. They have a lot of matching scarves, hat, gloves in "rich red" and berry colors that might work.

gloves

scarf

I was just looking at these and wishing I didn't already have a perfectly serviceable set.

If you have trouble, do you know anyone who can knit? That way you can have some choice over precise shade and style (depending on your or their skills).

I sympathise with the matching - I am a big fan of green and for some reason green shades jar more together than other hues.
