Jacket can be a star or a support role but a scarf will always stand out - unless it is a very neutral and discreet one.<br /> Saying that I will play anyway! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/next-weeks-plantheme-scarves#post-466710 Mon, 14 Nov 2011 02:40:02 +0000 qfbrenda 466710@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sounds like a fun challenge! I want to combine it with being a lemming at least a couple of times. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/next-weeks-plantheme-scarves#post-466608 Mon, 14 Nov 2011 01:24:11 +0000 Suz 466608@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi, Ornella -</p> <p>I'm in for this week, too, but will be quite limited for three days by what I happen to have in my suitcase. (I am currently away from home.) But that should be interesting in itself! </p> <p>Thanks for posting your idea, and also the lovely scarf photos! You have a beautiful collection! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/next-weeks-plantheme-scarves#post-466554 Sun, 13 Nov 2011 23:57:20 +0000 Amy 466554@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm in!</p> <p>Jjsloane - scarves can be very inexpensive. Just the other day, I bought two at a discount store and they're very pretty!</p> <p>Check out this site for scarf-tying tips:</p> <p><a href="http://texeresilk.com/main/cms/scarf_tying_guide" rel="nofollow">http://texeresilk.com/main/cms/scarf_tying_guide</a></p> <p>There's also the "Angie knot"</p> <p><a href="http://youlookfab.com/2009/04/07/tying-scarves-with-the-angie-knot/" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/2009/04/.....ngie-knot/</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/next-weeks-plantheme-scarves#post-466546 Sun, 13 Nov 2011 23:50:50 +0000 Jjsloane 466546@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sounds like a great idea, but oddly I have only outerwear scarves (but I have more than enough of those since my SIL gives me one for every birthday and Christmas and they are too nice to donate). I always admire their beauty and the many looks with them, but it is a definite hole in my wardrobe. Also I'm a total dunce at tying them and not looking like a boy scout. I think that's what I should ask for from Secret Santa. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/next-weeks-plantheme-scarves#post-466480 Sun, 13 Nov 2011 22:21:44 +0000 Ornella 466480@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Janet, it's not a challenge as such, certainly not in the same sense bella does Picture Perfect ones.</p> <p>But, after posting my summary thread about what I've learnt from combing through my wardrobe using the themes as filters, Suz and Carol suggested I post what I plan for some weeks and others may join in.</p> <p>I need to get dressed every day and such approach works *for me*, I've found a way to make the most of my wardrobe. It may be too restrictive for others. If anyone can have any use of it though, that's great.</p> <p>Last week I posted that I had planned to do a week of outfits around jackets and Amy and Sveta did it too (so did Suz, she'll post hers later).</p> <p>I found it very interesting and educational to see in which ways people style jackets.</p> <ul> <li><a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jacket-week">Amy's thread</a> </li> <li><a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/taking-ornellas-challenge-to-heart-wiw-jacket-week">Sveta's thread</a> </li> <li><a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-wearing-the-jackets">my thread</a></li> </ul> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/next-weeks-plantheme-scarves#post-466478 Sun, 13 Nov 2011 22:15:11 +0000 Janet 466478@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice idea. I haven't joined in a weekly theme yet, I should play along this time. I certainly have enough scarves... I should post a pic of all my scarves and shock everyone with the sheer number of them! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/next-weeks-plantheme-scarves#post-466475 Sun, 13 Nov 2011 22:05:39 +0000 Ornella 466475@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Care to join me?</p> <p>In the spirit of giving myself themes for the weekly outfits, the next week will revolve around the scarves. This one should be a lot less restrictive than the week before around the jackets :)</p> <p>The idea from my side is as before - to use different things and possibly the ones that haven't been in rotation recently, and try to be as creative with them as possible. There are specific ways I tend to wear scarves, but I'll try and see what other ways of knotting them I can put in practice..</p> <p>Photo 1 are the scarves I plan to use, they haven't been whittled down to the final selection yet. There are long silky ones, 'regular' silk square scarves and casual, both oblong and square scarves.<br /> Plus, there are some in the shop in town I haven't had a chance to check again, but will possibly one of these days.</p> <p>Photo 2 are the scarves that featured in my recent WIWs quite a lot and I won't be using them. </p>
