The month of June is usually associated with rain and chilly weather.
So, for a lot of people, the priority is to keep warm, not necessarily to be chic or fashionable, especially those who work and do business in air-conditioned environments.
Still, you can be stylishly warm even on those chilly days, with a little effort.
This is where the shawl comes in.
A shawl is a piece of fabric, mostly worn around the neck to serve different purposes. It could be worn for warmth, fashion or religious reasons. They come in a variety of materials such as wool, linen or cotton to suit every weather and taste.
Shawls have been used since ancient times. Originally, they were worn by men around their neck or tied to their belts. In ancient Rome, they were used to keep clean rather than keep warm.
