I Love a Good Scarf

I love a good scarf. They can add just the right amount of splash and color to a drab winter outfit, or tied around a dress or skirt ensemble to tie the whole thing together. You can wrap them, knot them, belt them, tie them like a tie — pretty much anything your imagination can come up with. My favorite article of clothing is a scarf I found at a department store at a deep discount, with a red, yellow and orange Middle East-inspired pattern. I’ve worn it with dresses, or over my collar in the winter. And I’m proud to know it was a great bargain besides.

Funky Scarves are in for Fall Fashion

This fall try using a lightweight scarf to spruce up an old outfit. Printed and colorful scarves work best. You can often find these at thrift stores.If you cannot find the scarf you like, try making your own out of vintage fabric.
Loosely tie the scarf around your neck or let it hang loose. You can also let the scarf double as a belt.  If you need to upgrade an outfit for work or a night out, pick a scarf with a hint of metallic threads in it. For the ultimate casual look, use a light knitted or crochet scarf. Pair it up with a blouse and a flowy skirt for a pretty hippie chic outfit.
