How to Wear a Scarf – Part 1

I have to say that I was quite shocked to discover how many fabulous images I managed to find of men wearing scarves for my How to Wear a Scarf – For Men post. Who knew there were so many men I would shag wandering aimlessly around London? There were even more women! Wearing scarves I mean, not women I would shag.

Here is the pick o’ the litter…

I love a silk scarf tied around like a roll-neck. And the pattern and colours give it an unusual twist.

I strongly believe that shawls are in the scarf family. Or scarves are in the shawl family. I don’t know which one but there is some serious in-breeding going on there. Anyway how beautiful is this girl? A shawl with serious fringe doesn’t look at all Nanna-like when paired with a funky haircut and a dapper little beret.

Skinny scarves are too cool. I like to wear them and drink Frappucinos and pretend that I am Kate Hudson.

Always play with texture. Okay the jumper is a little scary but the scarf is divine.

Wear a red scarf with red lipstick. Seriously just do it.

A loose extra long scarf gives snuggle-factor like nothing else. Only attempt this look if you want people to cuddle you excessively.

A fur stole with big-arse bow. Need. This. Now.

I don’t know if this is technically a scarf or just some fur pompoms on a ribbon. Lets just call it the Pommy Ribbonator (distant cousin of the scarf… It may have had some babies with a necklace and a rabbit) and admit that it’s rad. Is anyone feeling a DIY kind of thing here?

Block colour is splendid. Lined with black and thrown over a leather jacket is just scarf heaven wouldn’t you say?

Casual plaid with matching heels. How quaint!

A casual designer scarf slung around your neck and blowing in the breeze. Oh yeah.

A red scarf with straight black. An afro is preferable but not compulsory.

A marshmallow fluff shawl with a pink headband. Why don’t we all own these?

Stock up on scarves! They are the cheapest and most over looked item at nearly all thrift stores. And here is a kooky tip for you – wear them around your neck. So many people wear them as headscarves that it’s scary but a silky number tied around your neck is SO COOL that it’s practically frozen. Lame metaphor, I know but I needed to get my point across somehow…

 Stay tuned for more scarf-y goodness…
