Pip Robins brings Movember without the soup catcher

Cowls and scarves are cool for cool weather

Posted by Carsten Knox on Wed, Nov 9, 2011 at 4:00 AM

Local online label Pip Robins Accessories (piprobins.com), run by Gillian Hyde, makes cowl scarves---all recycled, upcycled or reclaimed. Slip one over your head and you've got the warmth of a traditional scarf but without all the bulk, looping and tying. Men love them because they're not girly, and women love them because they can be a serious statement piece. Check out the ones with leather and studs, or the Movember-inspired Mustache Cowl (10 percent of the profits from which go to prostate cancer research). You too can participate in prostate cancer awareness without looking like a douchebag. Available now at Biscuit General Store and Love, Me Boutique and at the Halifax Seaport Market every Saturday, with prices ranging from $29 to $59.

Survey Asks

Do you agree with Halifax's school board cutting 152 teachers?

  • Yes, the board needs to meet its shrinking budget.
  • Only if managers and bureaucracy get a similar cut.
  • I don't care, I support the private education system.
  • No, giving young citizens the best education is too important to cut.

If I can save one person from looking like a douchebag my life feels a little bit more worthwhile.

I would really rather my partner have one of these than look like a douche for an entire month. Thanks Pip!!!
