which other scarf?

My ylf posts document that I’ve been favoring the pink paisley heavily; it’s time for some others!
Is either of these silk scarves better than the other? Before going out, I did change my socks to match my pants and I readjusted my jacket so it didn’t hang so strangely when zipped.

Also what more do I need here? I’ve got
Color—the scarf
Pattern—scarf & boots
Texture—velvet shirt, leather jacket
Shine—the boots
I can’t tell if I need more or if it just photographs poorly. Can’t add a belt—no loops in the pants.

Like colorful scarf in pic#1 - it has some purple/berry that is so you !
The yellow/gold on the end of scarf is probably playing well with shiny boots - very nice.

This is great. Love it with the scarf tails showing, so you see all the colour. And the hair! The hair is so good still

You look super cute in #3! The boots bookend your new hair beautifully,

So first, your hair- amazing! This is clearly a great cut for you, because it looks just as great today, as fresh out of the salon. I like the scarf in 2 the best, but only by a smidge. You look cosy and comfortable.

Either scarf works, but I like the way you tied it in #2, without the loose ends. #3 is very eurochic and ‘up there’ with that excellent combination you wore on haircut day. What Kathie said, re your hair.

Great finished look, both scarves look good to me.

slim cat, thanks for that analysis of the colors. I hadn't picked up any of that consciously, but you are right on the nose.

Thanks, rachylou, Angie, and Kathie, for the compliments on the hair. I have been enjoying it; it feels so much thicker now! Angie, I think the boots and my hair have the same colors--quite a few colors.

Thanks Runcarla. I'll play around to see if I can tuck the ends and still have the gold showing for the effect slim cat describes. And Eurochic! Anything "chic" to describe me makes me say WOW.

Thanks shevia. You're the queen of multiple looks in the same style, so I appreciate that coming from you.

Seconding the "great finished look" comment. Everything fits beautifully (one of my own personal struggles). The first scarf is stunning!

I really like the scarf in photo# 2...very polished and chic. The hair is fabulous and, looks wonderful with those swoon-worthy metallic boots!

Love those boots!

Thanks Bennett, no new pieces here, so pulling it together is what it’s about.

Thanks nuancedream! The haircut has been fun—free papodams today, from a place I’ve been picking food up from for half a year.

Thanks Dana! I had them over a year before I wore them, but they moved into my wardrobe fast.

I love the haircut and have always loved those boots of yours. The new hair gives you a real lift. Both scarves are great- maybe I like how the second one sits better.
Those boots must be racking up wears!

You don't need to add anything - both scarves work well and why not enjoy wearing both? Your hair looks beautiful!

I like it more how it's tied in #2. In #1, I'd like it more with a different backdrop color, navy or purple or such, since the print doesn't have black in it to tie it together.
#3 looks very rock and roll!

I have a slight preference for no. 2, but both ways are great. The complete outfit is awesome!

Thanks Suntiger and Gigi! Wore it again yesterday with the first scarf (I hadn’t seen Suntiger’s post yet, but I also like the black/jewel tones contrast). When I took the jacket off, I kept the scarf on, ends hanging down to make a vertical line.
