Anyone who’s experienced the drastic change in temps recently knows the key to survival in this weather is dressing in layers. Being able to peel a layer off when the day is much warmer than expected—or add one on as dark clouds roll in and blustery winds pick up—is imperative to you maintaining that happy, sunny disposition you’re known for. Scarves are integral to this dressing equation, but admittedly, they can trip you when it comes to making them work with your outfit and hair and, well, everything. We all want that effortlessly cool draped scarf look that models and celebs nail without batting an eye, but executing that IRL is a lot harder than it looks. Depending on the scarf’s fabric, thickness, length, and material, wrapping it around your neck in just the right way can be a real nightmare that leaves you both sweaty and static-y.

The solution? The ever-practical (and yes, maybe just a little bit lazy) infinity scarf. Placed on your neck like a necklace, the infinity scarf—a.k.a. circle scarf, a.k.a. snood (cringe)—guarantees you’re styling the fabric in just the right ways. Whether you opt for one that is drape-y and low or one so thick it looks like it’s eating your neck, you’ll be tickled at how effortless it was to achieve your that model-esque look. Check out 20 of our favorites below, all of which look high-fashion but are low-effort, we promise.
