A fashion accessory that’s notorious for its ability to transform almost any wardrobe mishap with a wrap, tie and tug—the ever-elegant scarf is the power “Mom” of your wardrobe…
A scarf can:
• Smooth a panicked do.
• Cinch in a too-big top.
• Transform a blah outfit with a splash of color.
• Cover-up cold shoulders
• Disguise a less-than-smooth neckline
• Tie back curtains for a glam home décor option.
• Dry tears after a break-up
• Become a makeshift turniquet (ok, maybe only in the movies…)
• Secure arm sprains in a stylish sling
Zipper break? Scarf to the rescue! Tie one through your 2 front belt loops and knot together: then drape down and secure it across your pant front with safety pins—it will look like a fashionable tunic sash over your slacks.
Beach wear gets a beautiful boost from a sheer scarf tied sarong-style around the waist.
And what looks better draped over shoulders at weddings than a whisper-sheer, ultra-stunning scarf?
Scarves have the effect of making anything you pair them with look just a little bit French—Tie one on your purse or swirl it around a chignon (the French word for bun, ma petite!) and you’ll have friends and admirers greeting you with “Bonjour!” before you stroll off for some baguettes.
And let’s not forget that drag-racing scene in the movie Grease. Danny never would have gotten his car into gear if there hadn’t been a scarf on hand to start the race!
