Shopping Guide: Punchy Silk Scarves

My amassment of scarves is one of the most important components in my wardrobe. A good scarf changes any outfit, but it serves especially well if you’re prone to head-to-toe monochrome … and I am. If you were to sift through my closet, you’d find black, gray, more black, white, dark gray, heather gray, maybe some navy blue here and there… and a veritable kaleidoscope of colorful scarves. They’re mainly silk, which is a good indicator as to the time of year they favor: winter calls for thick, dark knits, but come March I’m busting out the flashy accessories left and right. If you don’t own a springtime scarf, now would be the time to invest in a really, really amazing one, because you’ll be wearing it for the next couple of months, right up until things start to get steamy. Here are my picks for silky scarves in punchy hues — I promise they will give any and all of your outfits an instant, seasonally appropriate facelift.

Love It Or Leave It? Infinity Scarves

An array of cute, affordable, and ethical Ts. Read More »

Infinity scarves, which consist of a singular loop of fabric, have gotten so popular that it’s actually becoming difficult to find a scarf with two separate ends. I, for one, have been loving this trend — infinity scarves are cute, cozy, convenient, and when you throw them on the ground they kind of look like a portal to another world — but the other day my friend said they reminded her of a giant bird’s nest around your neck, and now I can’t shake that visual. Plus, if normal scarves are phased out, all the fun ways to wear them will be rendered obsolete. So, what’s your vote on infinity scarves? Love ‘em or leave ‘em?

I’m slightly jealous of this video as I, the resident scarf expert at The Frisky, had planned to make my own scarf tutorial. Harumpf. I hate this girl and her scarf expertise, but I am mature enough to set my feelings aside. I would not begrudge you, stylish people of the world, the chance to wear scarves like a pro. But for the record, mine would have been funnier. [Fashionably Geek]

A Winter Scarf With An Identity Crisis

It’s 20 degrees out and you’ve forgotten your gloves again. So typical. Thank goodness your scarf works overtime. Or it would if you owned Wolf & Harrison’s knit scarf with pockets perfect for stuffing your nearly frost-bitten mitts in. Oh crap. Forgot your earmuffs too? No worries, this scarf is long enough to wrap around your ears too. You won’t freeze to death this winter after all.

Mixed Pattern Paradox

The Mixed Bouquet Infinity Scarf’s combination of different patterns creates a lovely paradox: It clashes with everything and therefore goes with everything. Throw it on to add interest to an all-black outfit, or take the eclectic look to the max by pairing it with a plaid trench coat and textured hosiery. However you choose to style it, it’s always an attention-grabber.

Liberty Of London Teaches You To Tie Scarves In Ways You Never Imagined


While we love the idea of being all French and wearing a silk scarf around the neck, in real life we feel a bit too, well, old. Or pretentious. That’s why we’re loving the instructional videos from U.K. department store Liberty of London, which introduce new ways to fashion the accessory. Watch as this stylist braids together two colorful scarves to create an awesome neck embellishment, or you can even wear it as a headband. (Lady is French, too, so you can trust she knows her stuff.) A very creative way to modernize the look! [YouTube] Keep reading »
