I hate scarves! They look fine on other people, but I just can't stand to wear them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-advice-from-my-father#post-670134 Mon, 16 Jul 2012 18:03:40 +0000 JR 670134@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love scarves. LOVE. But I can't ever see me shelling out for a Hermes either. Beyond the Rack is selling them used right now and they're still $150-300. Not happening. I can get gorgeous silk scarves for way less than that. And I'm not above wearing scarves that aren't silk. No pride at all here. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-advice-from-my-father#post-669222 Sun, 15 Jul 2012 16:55:37 +0000 Anonymous 669222@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You never know Anna!

He sounds like a generous man when you have spoken of him so you never know!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-advice-from-my-father#post-669047 Sun, 15 Jul 2012 07:02:13 +0000 jayne 669047@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>hmmm, my opinion is that the street style photo are the exceptions to the general rule....when I look at any of the street style photos I am rarely seeing these types of clothes as the norm. SO I suspect scarves are everywhere in Paris, but not in these pictures where the photograph found the different outfit interesting. Here in Norway the scarf is over the top in being part of everyday fashion, the long infinity or light long ones. It is hard to find a person without one in certain age groups...serious conformity issues around here! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-advice-from-my-father#post-668906 Sun, 15 Jul 2012 00:26:53 +0000 K.

I know my dad would have gone out and tried to buy one too, only to find not really in his price range. I can always tell a Parisian woman by the way she wears a scarf (so much better than I ever could). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-advice-from-my-father#post-668895 Sun, 15 Jul 2012 00:07:18 +0000 Amy 668895@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Haha Keep at him, Anna.

You need to keep working on your dad, Anna! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-advice-from-my-father#post-668873 Sat, 14 Jul 2012 23:20:19 +0000 nicoleb 668873@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well it's very bright and shiny </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fashion-advice-from-my-father#post-668871 Sat, 14 Jul 2012 23:19:53 +0000 annagybe 668871@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the star is something Greg gave me when I was having trouble loading the site.

For those of you that don't know he's a American who has built a mini-empire on travel advice for traveling in Europe. He has books, radio and television programs.<br /> So I guess there was a radio segment on dressing like a Parisian woman. He said scarves are the key to the look. So I tried to convince my father for me to look Parisian I need to have a (an?) Hermes scarf as a present. He was agreeable until I told him the price of their scarves. Then he changed his mind. Oh well. </p>
