The Scarf – what, why, how?

Post image for The Scarf – what, why, how?

Some people love them, some hate them and some just don’t think about them. To me, scarves have the ability to put the umpf on every outfit. The great thing about scarves is that they can dress an outfit down or dress an outfit up.

The Scarf Makes a Difference

Especially the larger scarves are very hot. They give your outfit a very edgy look and with a couple of jeans and a shirt a shiny scarf can give you a completely different and more stylish look. The scarf not only keeps you a bit warmer – it also accentuates your colors; your eyes, lips and hair. They can also be used to hide something you’d rather not other people see. If your blouse is too low cut, and you don’t want it too seem vulgar, wear a scarf.

It will definitely make the blouse less provocative. If your neck is too pale compared to your face (yes, sometimes people make the mistake of buying a foundation that is a bit too dark even though it, unfortunately, doesn’t give you the complexion of Jessica Alba no matter how hard you wish for it) the scarf can be used to lessen the difference by hiding parts of the neck.

There are many different ways how to put a scarf on. Experiment and you’ll see the many ways a scarf can be worn. Don’t go for the safe, and just try what feels and looks best. You want to set trends – not follow them!

Let your self be inspired by these pictures and try out what looks best on you.
