The Eclectic Scarf

I was browsing the mall (Somerset Collection) recently and noticed so many women wearing really chic scarfs.  Some were large shawl types, squares, or rectangular with vibrant colors wrapped at the neck, and a few were tied around the waist.  I also noticed how understated their clothes were before the scarfs were added.  This further illustrates my belief that accessories are the key!  Clothes can often have sticker shock, however a beautiful scarf will actually earn its keep.  Even the most minimalistic wardrobe can be blended  with a wild color or gorgeous print to inspire both classic and street chic.  For instance, put on a black top, matched with black or white slacks (or skirt) then grab the most beautiful scarf you own and add it according to your personal style....then wait for the compliments!

  1. I completely agree with this post! The scarf is the most overlooked accessory that can instantly change the look of an outfit. Great personal collection which of course wouldn't be complete without the orange box.
