SCARFING YOUR WAY THROUGH WINTER: 5 BEST PICKS FOR THE SEASON

The scarf is without doubt, the most effortless and elegant fashion-statement-making accessory for any woman. Functional, practical and versatile, it can keep you warm or protect you from heat, it can be carried in your daily bag or just tied around the strap… and there are a million creative ways to style this simple cloth. It adds panache and grace where needed yet spices up a dull outfit in mere seconds.

Here are 5 scarves that should definitely be a part of your current seasonal wardrobe, and of course, since they are timeless and ageless, last you for the next decade at least.

1. PRINTED AND PRESSED, TRENDS COME FIRST

In my opinion, a scarf livens an outfit like a great lipsticks brightens the face. Especially with one of the biggest trends this fall, being the resurfaced leopard print, that is eye-catching and attention drawing. This scarf works best on dark solid colours – maybe an LBD or a navy shirt and jeans, the options are limitless. However, with trends like these, don’t think long- term; think flashy, fabulous and glamorous!

2. SEASONAL BEAUTIES

Let the weather dictate your outfit choices, it’s a smart way to avoid conflict every morning! A classic piece that can transform a simple winter ensemble into a chic runway look is the woollen wrap-around scarf. This particular beauty in off-white can be paired with a sweater dress and suede boots. Just remember, a scarf is the key to perfecting an outfit!

3. TASSLING AWAY

Tassels have been spotted quite often lately, as an emerging trend, either on boho bags with ethnic motifs or in fusion earring and pendant sets. So why not flaunt them on scarves. This particular design is great to add a pop of colour to a winter outfit, simply because it’s plaid. And plaid is universally synonymous to fall and winter fashion.

4. ETHNIC AFFAIRS

Are scarves and dupattas interchangeable? Not quite. But, this new collection of ‘pendant scarves’, sure does make for a fabulous ethnic addition to a western outfit; especially with fusion fashion being all the rage these days. The best thing about scarves is that they draw attention to your outfit, without trying to be the star of the show!

5. A COUTURE ESSENTIAIL

They say: a scarf is often enough to gain you entry into an elite crowd. While I agree, that the scarf is the  ‘chicest’ of all accessories, it is also important to invest in some couture pieces that really stand apart. A designer scarf in silk or satin with vibrant unique prints will not only add zest to your attire but also a touch of class to an otherwise regular ensemble. This Satya Paul piece should do the trick.

Now, if you’re not already a scarf person, then become one! There’s no excuse not to, either; because one size fits all and it’s only a single strip of cloth! So, just choose your knot, pick a style and flaunt the ultimate fashion accessory: scarves!
