Wrap Me Up!

When we were asked the first day of class to list one piece of clothing or an accessory we can’t live without for me it was a no-brainer…scarves of course! In all different styles, colors, patterns, and materials, they are one of the most versatile accessories. By just adding a couple to your wardrobe, you’ve incorporated a style that can be adorned with a multitude of outfits. Scarves have definitely made a huge comeback from simply being worn in freezing temperatures to stay as warm as possible. They can even be spotted being worn in the summertime! Made from silks or linens and paired with a loose-fitted tank or a tee, fashion has obviously made big twists over the years. It’s the perfect way of allowing an outfit to come alive. They can be substituted for necklaces; even the larger ones can be worn as shawls. As for me, I adore scarves with bold, colorful patterns where you can wear a solid colored blouse, that way the scarf just pops! It’s a great accessory not only to stay warm but they make an outfit complete! Nicole Richie has been seen rocking silk scarves with skulls since the days of “The Simple Life”. Not only can scarves be wrapped around your neck, but I’ve seen a lot of women wearing thinner scarves as head-scarves. Personally, I just go to G-Street and pick up a ¼ yard of silk with a killer pattern and use the material as a head scarf. As seen worn by celebrities such as Lauren Conrad, even her arch-nemesis Heidi Montag from “The Hills”, as well as Jessica Alba, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, it’s obvious wearing scarves in cold weather or not is a trend that's here to stay, and that is perfectly all right with me!
