I'm glad you did the challenge! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/day-3-4---the-scarf-challenge#post-1905975 Mon, 09 Apr 2018 09:58:10 +0000 Bijou 1905975@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Katerina </b>- thanks for you post on twin scarves. It is definitely inspiring me to up my game when wearing scarves.</p> <p><b>Janet </b>- to be honest, unless I was doing the challenge, I would not have bothered wearing it. However, it did give me a happiness factor, which is great when doing a less than fun job. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/day-3-4---the-scarf-challenge#post-1905623 Sun, 08 Apr 2018 12:49:32 +0000 Janet 1905623@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All fab! Especially the skull scarf with the pearls. That is inspired! </p> <p>I usually end up taking off my scarf if my day gets active, so kudos to you for keeping yours on while helping your dad. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/day-3-4---the-scarf-challenge#post-1905569 Sun, 08 Apr 2018 08:39:19 +0000 Katerina 1905569@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Bijou, I will post some of my twin scarves later today. It’s not advanced, but it’s fun to play </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/day-3-4---the-scarf-challenge#post-1905512 Sun, 08 Apr 2018 00:26:33 +0000 Bijou 1905512@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Toronto Girl and Smittie - glad you liked the skulls and pearls mixed together.</p> <p>ChrisM - thankyou, it is nice to have completed the challenge and I will wear my scarves more often.</p> <p>Katerina - you are too kind. Now I would really love to see how to wear the twin scarves together. I think that qualifies as advanced scarf wearing. </p> <p>Cardiff Girl - yes I prefer those outfits too. I seem to like to wear colour more now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/day-3-4---the-scarf-challenge#post-1905451 Sat, 07 Apr 2018 20:55:08 +0000 Cardiff girl 1905451@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love your outfits. special mention must go to the plaid dress and the cream blouse both very pretty. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/day-3-4---the-scarf-challenge#post-1905442 Sat, 07 Apr 2018 20:08:17 +0000 Katerina 1905442@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look very beautiful on Day 5 too. I am utterly impressed with the super stylish outfit for moving and cleaning! </p> <p>Have you tried to wear your twin scarves together? I have some twin scarves in different colours and wear them sometimes tied together. It makes an interesting effect. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/day-3-4---the-scarf-challenge#post-1905436 Sat, 07 Apr 2018 19:54:25 +0000 Anonymous 1905436@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your dress is fab! Also, it is funny the juxtaposition of your classic face and pearls with the skull scarf! So fun! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/day-3-4---the-scarf-challenge#post-1905432 Sat, 07 Apr 2018 19:32:02 +0000 ChrisM 1905432@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All good looks. Well done!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/day-3-4---the-scarf-challenge#post-1905287 Sat, 07 Apr 2018 11:25:42 +0000 Helena 1905287@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fabulous Bijou, well done on the challenge and great learning. It's amazing how much variation a few scarves can give you. The cream and black looked so fantastic with your light hair and dark eyes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/day-3-4---the-scarf-challenge#post-1905273 Sat, 07 Apr 2018 10:27:10 +0000 Bijou 1905273@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Angie</b> - you are very kind. I find pearls very easy to wear and need to get myself a shorter pearl necklace.</p> <p><b>Efbgen</b> - thank you! Looking forward to your scarf posts.</p> <p><b>Carol </b>- I would normally not put pearls and a scarf together, it is only because of the challenge. My phone is old, an LG AKA, but I don't want to upgrade it because I love having a pink phone.</p> <p><b>Katerina </b>- thank you for all your support.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Brooklyn</b> - funny how the pattern mixing of the plaid and leopard sort of worked, and it was only because I was too lazy to swap out my previous day's handbag! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/day-3-4---the-scarf-challenge#post-1905265 Sat, 07 Apr 2018 09:09:17 +0000 Brooklyn 1905265@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the first outfit. Especially when you are wearing the scarf wrap like with the cross body bag. Lots of colour, pattern and texture.</p> <p>And the skull scarf and pearl combination is dynamite! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/day-3-4---the-scarf-challenge#post-1905258 Sat, 07 Apr 2018 07:52:41 +0000 Katerina 1905258@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Bijou, you look fantastic! Both outfits are really great. I couldn’t choose a favorite. The dress is amazing and the combination with the scarf, boots and bag is smashing. The Moschino scarf is fabulous! The second outfit is also great. LOVE the combination of the cool scarf with the pearls and the elegant colour palette. You are nailing this challenge! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/day-3-4---the-scarf-challenge#post-1905193 Sat, 07 Apr 2018 00:03:51 +0000 Carol 1905193@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the contrast of pearls with a skull scarf, that's the kind of combination I never think to do, but it works so well.&nbsp; I also have a pink phone--it'd be funny if it was the same phone.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/day-3-4---the-scarf-challenge#post-1905159 Fri, 06 Apr 2018 20:50:21 +0000 Anonymous 1905159@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh Bijou- just super fantastic looks- the end!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/day-3-4---the-scarf-challenge#post-1905015 Fri, 06 Apr 2018 14:52:32 +0000 Angie 1905015@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KILLER x2</p> <p>You had me with the colour and pearls. *SMILE*</p> <p>Humbled to be thought of, and you made the red boots work flawlessly.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/day-3-4---the-scarf-challenge#post-1904993 Fri, 06 Apr 2018 14:01:41 +0000 Bijou 1904993@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Aurore - I agree, I liked today's outfit the best. I did think of LisaP with this scarf as I know this is a signature item for her.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/day-3-4---the-scarf-challenge#post-1904968 Fri, 06 Apr 2018 11:40:23 +0000 Aurore 1904968@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I find Day 3 Outfit great, but Day 4 Outfit even greater!&nbsp; I love the way your badass skull scarf and ladylike pearl necklace look together :&nbsp;different in spirit but similar in lines.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/day-3-4---the-scarf-challenge#post-1904953 Fri, 06 Apr 2018 10:25:54 +0000 Bijou 1904953@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Day 3 </b>- I decided to wear one of my YLF approved dress and boots outfits and &nbsp;I added a scarf as my topper.</p> <p>This scarf is old, purchased about 7 years ago and is something that I love because it has Olive Oil from Popeye on it. I like the colour and the softness on this scarf too and it is my travelling companion. I love to wear it when on airplanes, so whenever I wear it, I am reminded of travelling.</p> <p>Currently the temperature outside is warm to hot - today's maximum was 30C, but in the office that I work in, the air conditioning can be cold, especially when I am just working at my desk.</p> <p>Usually I would wear a cropped jacket with this, but today decided to wear my woollen red scarf / wrap instead.&nbsp;When the air-conditioning went freezing, I was literally rugged up!</p> <p>Photo 1, is of the dress and scarf worn for less warmth and Photo 2 is wrapped up.</p> <p>Dress - bought in Japan last year<br />Boots - old but by XSA<br />Scarf - old - Moschino Cheap and Chic<br />Bag - Leowolf leopard print</p> <p><b>Day 4 - Today</b></p> <p>Friday is casual dress day at work so I could wear jeans to work. I really love my Skull Scarf, but I am much less hard edge these days than when I bought this scarf. So the solution was to add pearls.</p> <p>I felt fab in this, because pearls and a scarf reminded me of Angie and given the 12th Anniversary of YLF, I needed to add an element of Angie into today's ensemble. In addition, because my husband LOVES this scarf, well I had to include it in the challenge.</p> <p>Photo 1, close up of scarf and pearls, outfit in full length (blurry photo - apologies) and without scarf, which is how I would normally wear this. I liked the scarf addition more than without it, but would be interested to see if you agree.</p> <p>Jeans - JBrand coated skinny jeans<br />Blush pink top - old<br />Boots - old<br />Scarf - Alexander McQueen<br />Bag - Samantha Thavasa - old</p> <p><b>Added Day 5 (photo 6)</b></p> <p>A day of helping to clear out my Dad's house, as he has moved. The twin scarf to Day 2 - this one is dark teal and black and grey leopard print and I tied it in a triangle at the front. Worn with denim skirt, chunky silver and leather belt, black shirt and boots. Not an exciting outfit, but practical, because I was cleaning out cupboards and moving furniture etc. The benefit of the scarf is that it added a nice colour (teal) next to my face which broke up the severe black shirt and dark column of colour.</p> </p> <p>Denim skirt - Mother<br />Shirt - Cue (old)<br />Boots - Paul Green<br />Scarf - Roberto Cavalli<br />Bag - same as Day 4</p> <p><b>Challenge Ended!</b></p> <p><b></b>I must say there is a sense of relief that tomorrow I will not be wearing a scarf. This challenge helped me to see that scarves can be worn for most activities - even cleaning out my Dad's house. The addition of a scarf is a nice touch, it can add warmth, tie the colours in an outfit together, add an element of edge to a look or even put a nice colour next to my face.</p>
