My hair is short and my neck gets cold. I also like how this plain color and that plain color can be tied together with a scarf. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-scarves/page/2#post-1904167 Wed, 04 Apr 2018 12:32:56 +0000 RobinF 1904167@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love scarves and the way they finish off an outfit. However, I have found that, now that I am in menopause, they often make me too hot. I often have to take them off during the day. Still love them though! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-scarves/page/2#post-1904162 Wed, 04 Apr 2018 12:15:49 +0000 jussie 1904162@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love scarves. I could never be considered a uniform dresser..... but scarves are the closest thing to a uniform that I have.<br /> Like Lisa p said; it’s about an appreciation for textiles. I just like fabric!<br /> I actually tend to wear summer scarves year round, cotton mostly, occasionally silk. I like rectangles or infinity.<br /> I find them very comforting, like an extra layer of protection, my little portable shoulder blanket.<br /> Katerina I adore numbers 7 and 8 in your scarf pics.<br /> For a while I even made silk infinity scarves and sold them in a shop- that was fun, I would like to start again sometime. I used different prints and solids within the same scarf, giving it an almost patchwork-y look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-scarves/page/2#post-1904149 Wed, 04 Apr 2018 11:29:34 +0000 lyn67 1904149@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a bin of scarves for each season and one another for dressy-so you can tell I love and wear them a lot. As lisa p. said it for me "it comes from a love for textiles and prints and I can experiment with patterns and mixes and colours I wouldn't necessarily wear in a piece of clothing".&nbsp;&nbsp;<br />I pick them up according to my curent wardrobe's colors and level of contrast (esp. love lightweight but big rectangles, with&nbsp; big watercolor florals or non figurative prints and a very little bit of sparkle) and usually wear them left long to my coat's hem-but have a few infinity scarves, too.<br />BTW loved all your quirky prints posted (the dollar, the beast etc......:-)) but the one with the chain hardware (made in a necklace) is the best-very different!:-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-scarves/page/2#post-1903913 Tue, 03 Apr 2018 18:38:43 +0000 Katerina 1903913@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Janet, I love how you use your scarves in your outfits, you have some really stunning pieces. I can’t wait to see your new number! How fun you found that pattern! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-scarves/page/2#post-1903843 Tue, 03 Apr 2018 15:21:48 +0000 Janet 1903843@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a crazy big number of scarves. I like how they can finish an outfit or pull in some color and pattern when everything else is very basic. I rely on them for travel to change up very simple neutral top-and-pants combinations. In fact, I’m wearing one right now for that very reason!</p> <p>Sometime I should take photos of my collection. I especially tend to buy them while on my travels — in fact, I just got a skinny silk one last night at the Zadig &amp; Voltaire outlet in Vegas. It’s the great tropical floral and guitar print that I liked so much that I tried on a dress in Munich (sadly cut wrong for my shape). So now I get to enjoy the print in my own small way. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-scarves/page/2#post-1903824 Tue, 03 Apr 2018 14:24:31 +0000 Katerina 1903824@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you&nbsp;<b>ALL&nbsp;</b>for sharing your thoughts on scarves.

Such a playful, chic and retro component of your signature style. Unique, interesting and polished.</p> <p>I love scarves, and have always worn them (some seasons more than others). I love Spring and Summer scarves too - cotton/linen/silk gauzy looks. Here's my current collection across the seasons: </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-scarves/page/2#post-1903535 Mon, 02 Apr 2018 13:41:28 +0000 Katerina 1903535@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jessikams and Amy Isabella, I am honored that you would like me to teach you some ways how to tie scarves. However, I am not so good at explaining it. </p> <p>There are some very good online tutorials for example by FryeWilly showing many different ways to tie a scarf. I think somebody has previously already posted a link, but here it comes again:</p> <p><a href="https://youtu.be/OPqUQegZGI0" rel="nofollow">https://youtu.be/OPqUQegZGI0</a></p> <p>Hope you find some inspiration there! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-scarves/page/2#post-1903507 Mon, 02 Apr 2018 12:10:38 +0000 Toban 1903507@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Katerina, thanks for sharing your summer weight scarves! They are lovely. My favorite is the purple and teal. Their lighter weight fabrications make sense for summer and I appreciate that your summers aren’t as hot as mine. While scarves remain infrequent for me, it is a rare day for me to be without a necklace. I bring back necklaces and scarves as gifts (including for myself) from my travels. My mother-in-law still wears a purple scarf I bought her in France 22 years ago. She likes having her neck covered. Your summer weight scarves remind me that scarf. I enjoy the memories of many of my accessory purchases. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-scarves/page/2#post-1903496 Mon, 02 Apr 2018 10:38:31 +0000 Karie 1903496@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love scarves and wear them a lot. We get ultra cold and long winters so outdoor scarves are a must. Indoor scarves provide extra warmth since I run cold. I typically don’t wear them during the summer months, but I will bring one along if we are going to an outdoor spot for dinner and it’s a breezy evening. I always bring a scarf when traveling since trains and planes can be drafty. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-scarves/page/2#post-1903494 Mon, 02 Apr 2018 10:17:24 +0000 Katerina 1903494@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Toban, I took some pics of some scarves I wear in the summer. Summers here are usually not extremely hot, so most of the time it works with thinner silk, cotton, linen and other light weight materials.</p> <p>The first two are silk pocket squares. No 3-4 is silk chiffon longer scarfs. No 5 thin linen, no 6-8 are cotton or cotton blends and no 9 is silk twill (that is the heaviest material of these). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-scarves/page/2#post-1903485 Mon, 02 Apr 2018 09:45:01 +0000 Mainelady 1903485@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love scarves and wear them frequently. I pared down my collection about a year ago, but still have about 20. Most are large squares or oblongs. My favorites are two that belonged to my grandfather. Those are both short silk rectangles that he wore over his dress coat. My new favorite is an LV that my daughter gave me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-scarves/page/2#post-1903479 Mon, 02 Apr 2018 09:26:56 +0000 Jane 1903479@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm a scarf lover too and wear one most days. My favourite one is a deep red silk with a very light wool backing, which drapes beautifully.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-scarves/page/2#post-1903475 Mon, 02 Apr 2018 09:14:21 +0000 Katerina 1903475@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a treat to look at and hear about all the great scarves - so many beautiful styles! Thank you all for sharing your realationship to scarves! Very inspiring. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-scarves/page/2#post-1903474 Mon, 02 Apr 2018 08:39:39 +0000 Amy Isabella 1903474@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I adore scarves of all types and used to wear them a lot, but stopped when my now 5 year old dogs were puppies. They were far too much of a fun temptation for two tiny fur babies with sharp little teeth! For some unknown reason, I never got back into the habit of wearing them. Thank you for inspiring me to bring them out of hibernation Katerina. </p> <p>Like Jessikams, I would love it if you would share your tips on the different ways you tie your scarves! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-scarves#post-1903471 Mon, 02 Apr 2018 07:54:03 +0000 tulle 1903471@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love seeing all these scarves!&nbsp; Most of mine, except for two Hermes scarves that were gifts from my husband, are thrift-shop finds.&nbsp; I look for vintage Italian silks with hand-rolled hems, in colors that look good next to my face. The scarves I buy new are usually cashmere or pashmina mufflers in soft pastels, but the one I reach for most often is my Acne "Columbus" scarf, a thin cotton/silk blend printed with an antique map of Scandinavia.&nbsp; It was black on white, but I dyed it pale blue, so it goes with almost everything I own. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-scarves#post-1903462 Mon, 02 Apr 2018 07:10:42 +0000 CocoLion 1903462@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't always wear my scarves but I don't get rid of them either. &nbsp;I have a box full of them, but they don't take up that much room. &nbsp;Sometimes I like to unfold them, touch them, and think about the memories the scarves can conjure. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-scarves#post-1903432 Mon, 02 Apr 2018 05:12:47 +0000 Irina 1903432@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love scarves, perhaps too much. I have too many Silk and linen for summers, wool for winters.<br /> The floral one is thin wool, 2 years old. The black one and grey are recently purchased. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-scarves#post-1903427 Mon, 02 Apr 2018 04:33:59 +0000 Bijou 1903427@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I enjoy scarves and wear them from time to time, usually to provide warmth around my neck. It is not a big part of my style as I can feel a bit overwhelmed by scarves. My most complimented scarf is one that has a matching dress, the grey floral one and I enjoy wearing these together. The red scarf with Olive Oil I have had for a long time and it is very big and warm, fun to wear on cold days and works well with my red boots.<br />The last two scarves are my more recent purchases and I like the pop of colour that they add to outfits. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-scarves#post-1903405 Mon, 02 Apr 2018 02:36:10 +0000 Jaime 1903405@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>As a dedicated thrifter I of course have some scarves! I wear them in spurts and will take some pictures of my favorites later and add them here. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-scarves#post-1903401 Mon, 02 Apr 2018 02:23:41 +0000 ChrisM 1903401@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@Smittie - lol!!!

I can only wish that I could wear them as well as you do. Probably my favorites are silk or rayon as I can wear them year round. I also really like cotton bandana type square scarves for casual wear, especially in summer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-scarves#post-1903392 Mon, 02 Apr 2018 02:01:26 +0000 Anonymous 1903392@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@ChrisM: I got the scarf you recommended.

Love them .....except maybe the dog- scary looking dude- lol. Bet you paid a good “money” on that first one<br /> I just purchased a new kitty scarf. Two of my favorite scarves : a gift from a friend who traveled to Greece and is hand painted and another friend who sent a silk scarf with an embroidered heron from China. Both are around 25 years old. I too like to pick up scarves or unusual brooches when I travel. I love going into second hand or consignment stores when I travel too because you can get some great scarves and brooches that people just don’t have a clue and pitched.<br /> Thanks to Katerina for the post and all the friends that posted great looks. Nice to know I am in great company. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-scarves#post-1903377 Mon, 02 Apr 2018 00:52:29 +0000 Windchime 1903377@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Katerina, you have some really fun scarves! I wear a lot of scarves, especially with winter outfits to add a layer warmth, and while mine are all classic and/or pretty, I’d enjoy adding some that are purely fun. </p>
