The chilly weather has arrived; icy cold wind is blowing from every angle, and to stay warm you have to bundle up every inch of your body.

When it's that cold, staying stylish is not often a priority, but with circle scarves, it can be a fashionable, warm and a comfortable addition to your cold day. It's an accessory that is easy to change up, easy to wear and best of all it's functional, making it a must-have this season!

The selection of circle scarves has significantly improved over the past couple of seasons. Now, they're easy to find anywhere and there are many different fabrics, styles and prints to choose from. Not only is it an outerwear piece, it can easily be worn with an indoor outfit while looking trendy.

Since there is so much variety of circle scarves, which one is the right one for you? I'll help break the different styles down so that it makes your decision a little bit easier.

Top Left: This is a circle scarf from American Apparel. It is long, but it's been doubled up to look fuller. This is the classic circle scarf. It's displayed in grey, but is available in more than 30 colours from American Apparel so you can just choose your favourite. Neutrals are always great choices since they can go with many outfits if you're not comfortable choosing a colour. It can be worn not doubled so the scarf just hangs but the medium weight of the fabric makes the scarf nice and warm when you double it up when you're heading out. (American Apparel, $34)

Top Right: The burgundy scarf to its right is the thickest knit of them all. It adds texture to your outfit from the way it sits. Since burgundy is a hot colour this season, it adds a trendy touch to any outfit and it always looks great paired with beige, army green and black. (Aldo Accessories, $25)

Bottom Left: This is another thick scarf that does not need to be doubled up, but the two-toned knit gives the scarf a different appeal. The cream scarf reveals glimpses of a mauve that can either give the scarf an edgy or comfy look, depending on the outfit, of course! (Aldo Accessories, $30)

Bottom Right: This hand-made circle scarf from Etsy is a lightweight scarf that is doubled to make the scarf look fuller. The scarf has a beautiful bohemian elephant print (wildlife is a hot trend this season, too) mixed with multiple colours but still wearable and balanced (Etsy seller oceanscarf, $18.31)
