Neckerchief with ROG inspired casual outfit

Joy

Veteran

The outfit (1/2) is mostly ROG with s neckerchief added inspired by Angie's Blog. 3/4 is the way I mostly wear bandanas. I think I started as an attempt to reduce the openness of wide summer necklines. Suggestions and comments welcomed.
ETA: please excuse the shower hair and no makeup

The outfit is great and the scarf really ups the outfit to "wow".

Lovely, Joy! I really like the dark paired with faded denim and plenty of skin. VERY striking. And I gotta say, the wet hair has some fun rockin' texture. Have you ever tried popping some salt spray in your hair to rough it up? Neckerchief looks perfectly at home on you. I prefer it as in your outfit in #1/2 over the tied necklace look in #3/4.

Thank you all so much for your comments and suggestions.
Aida, I would love to give my hair a different look. Is there a brand of salt spray that you would recommend or do you actually mix salt with water? I would like to try this.
Bonnie, Texstyle, thank you for commenting on the scarf. I'm glad I'm not alone in thinking it adds something.
Angie, you are so kind.
Chris, the shoes were a favorite for me last summer. They are DV brand and very comfortable. My custom find is below.
Thank you, Shedev, Avemaria, Shannon, Jane and El Cee, for your encouraging words.
Suz, being called hip made my day!

Hi Joy --

The cowboy knot version really suits this look! I feel like this is more skin than you usually show and boy does it look good on you. Sass + class!

I use the one below, though it's a little pricey. Most of the salt sprays out there are too drying for me -- fine, thin, and curly doesn't work well to add too much dryness! This one is less "salty" (and actually is a little hydrating) than many, so the texture it adds is less noticeable. My sis has straight hair and it was more noticeable in her hair than in mine, but still not overly tousled looking. I like it best when used on dry or almost-dry hair; I spray a little aimed at the root but far enough out that it gets hair too, then do a quick blow dry (like under 30 seconds quick) angled up into the hair and finish with a good shake.

Vic, I could have posted this under Angie's blog post on our summer body. Thank you. At almost 70, I don't expect that showing more skin looks good.
Aida, thank you for posting this product and how you use it. This sounds pretty easy for summer
Torontogirl, I'm smiling. I don't think anyone has ever thought I looked edgy before.
Smittie and Robin, I'm so happy that you think the scarf looks ok.
Deborah, ditto what I replied to Torontogirl. I doubt anyone thinks I look cool very often, but I like it. It is especially wonderful coming from you, who always looks cool.
