which one would you pick? If anyone would like to share pics that would be great. This would be my first purchase of one of these. I love the way they both look but having such a hard time deciding ugh. I only want to invest in one at the moment.
 
I will be following this. I bought a shawl last month and I really love it. But I want to get another and I wonder if I should try a stole next. I wear my shawl over my shoulders with a dress and around my neck with lighter jackets. Curious what others prefer.

I prefer shawls as well. I love the softness, the smoothness, the look of it. Not as practical for cold weather, but where I live it's warm year round (plus Spring is upon us/Summer is just around the corner) so it'd be a good time to buy. Scarf/stole can come later, yes?
 
Absolutely love this scarf. This one is the SO LV Stole in noir. So soft and so many compliments. Now I want another one after wearing it out today. Now do I get another stole or a shawl hmm?? decisions lol I think it’s defintaly worth having one it’s so pretty and soft!

What exactly is the difference between a shawl and a stole?
I have two shawls and I just saw a stole I like but not sure if it’s going to be similar or different then the shawl?
TIA

I’m not quite sure what really makes them different other than the way you can wear them. There is a size difference between shawls and stoles. I can’t get my Stole in the shape I see some ladies wearing their shawls.

Yes I'd like to know the difference also.

From what I understand, the biggest difference is the measurement. A shawl is square usually 56 x 56” and a stole is a long rectangle 78 x 57”. Some stoles are thin and part silk like the shawls and some stoles are mostly wool like a winter scarf. I just wonder which would be easier to wear, I personally only need a lightweight version. I just got my first shawl, so to make it look effortless takes about 30 minutes [emoji23] I wonder if the stole is easier.

30 minutes really? I want a shawl next but I’m not sure about it. I’m not good at this stuff lol so I’m not making fun. My Stole about 10 min or less to fix it how I like it to look.
 
I really want to get this shawl and love the way it’s shown here. I’m not sure how easy is to fix this way.

Nah, not really 30. More like 10. I was being silly. That look is the easiest one, it will take you 1 minute tops. That blue is super pretty- I hope you get it.
