REPLIKATE REVIEW

It's winter in Australia, and while I dislike the cold weather, I do LOVE winter fashion and layering! The Duchess of Cambridge loves to layer her off-duty style with a scarf and she favors the Aquascutum check scarf, so I decided to add one to my closet this winter!

I bought one from eBay. I know there are some concerns about fakes on eBay and while I cannot verify its authenticity, I am very satisfied with the quality of my scarf and it did come with original tags etc. I paid about £30 which is a fair price for a lambswool scarf. I would have loved to get a cashmere one, but it was more than I wanted to spend.
