I can quit my job. </p> <p>Julie, no turtle neck under a scarf like this. You need a shirt collar or knitted top. Does that make sense? I can show you at DFS tomorrow. Sweet belted cardi look :0) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/way-to-make-this-scarf-work#post-55006 Tue, 17 Mar 2009 21:05:08 +0000 julijuli 55006@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks gals - I knew you'd have some good suggestions. </p> <p>I'm going to try Bella's way today since I have a turtleneck on at the moment. I do agree with unbuttoning the last button and will do that too! And, I'm going to try Antje's muffler idea when I wear a lower neck shirt -when I tried it with the turtle it was kind of too much on my neck! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/way-to-make-this-scarf-work#post-55005 Tue, 17 Mar 2009 20:58:49 +0000 bella 55005@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Antje, great call! I love muffler style. I think it works best when the rest of the outfit is pretty simple. </p> <p>San - good catch! I hadn't realized that I left the last button undone until you pointed it out. As you can tell, I'm not aware of a rule either, but like Antje, I think it looks less formal, more casual and fun this way. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/way-to-make-this-scarf-work#post-55004 Tue, 17 Mar 2009 20:47:43 +0000 Antje 55004@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't know why, but I also typically leave at least one button open at the bottom. I think it might look a bit more casual that way, less deliberate/formal. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/way-to-make-this-scarf-work#post-55003 Tue, 17 Mar 2009 20:41:40 +0000 Anonymous 55003@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>julijuli I love the colors you have in your scarf and the sweater. I also love the way bellacville tucks the tails into her shirt or sweater, as it then doesn't fight with the belt for attention.<br /> One thing I wonder about when I button cardigans myself, is there a rule about leaving the bottom button unbuttoned? I see that bellacville does this and I thought I had read it here sometime before to leave it undone. Does anyone have opinions on this? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/way-to-make-this-scarf-work#post-55002 Tue, 17 Mar 2009 20:32:00 +0000 Antje 55002@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Is it a large square? I've worn one "muffler style", like in the pictures in this blog entry:<br /> <a href="http://youlookfab.com/2008/09/03/the-bridging-scarf-muffler-style/" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/2008/09/.....ler-style/</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/way-to-make-this-scarf-work#post-54995 Tue, 17 Mar 2009 19:47:32 +0000 bella 54995@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>As a scarf pro, my suggestion is the best way to wear such a scarf is to tuck the ends in the cardi like this:</p> <p><a href="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3378/3333022305_1e4ef37490_b.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://farm4.static.flickr.com.....7490_b.jpg</a></p> <p>or wear it cowboy style with a button down and again tuck it in:</p> <p><a href="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3501/3311163701_e981f3e29a_b.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://farm4.static.flickr.com.....e29a_b.jpg</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/way-to-make-this-scarf-work#post-54989 Tue, 17 Mar 2009 19:16:21 +0000 julijuli 54989@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I dug out this scarf I received as a gift a few years ago. I tried to pair it with a cardi &#38; belt but I think it looks too frumpy. Any suggestions on how to make it work?</p> <p><a href="http://i288.photobucket.com/albums/ll188/14jules_seattle/IMG_1142.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i288.photobucket.com/al.....G_1142.jpg</a></p> <p>Thanks everyone. </p>
