A Lady Should Never Be Without One

ucky Brand Women's Sunshine Paisley scarf, $55.00
Autumn is finally arriving, and not a moment too soon!! For me, Fall means pumpkin pie, apple cider scented candles, crispy mornings and warm afternoons and.... SCARVES!!!!

 
God I love a good scarf. No, not the woolly, it's-20-below-outside scarves, but the gauzy, flimsy, lady-like neck adornments that just SCREAM "pay attention to me, I'm pretty and girly"

Of course, tying a scarf is more than just wrapping a length of linen around your neck. There is more to it, and it can quite complicated. Fortunately, there is a clever little website here that gives step by step instructions on folds, basic knots and more complicated ones. Myself, I'm a fan of the European loop. It's easy, chic and effortlessly fashionable.
A scarf is not just an accessory. Oh sure, you could treat it as one in its own right, but I prefer to wear scarves as an extension of my outfit. I like to add a vivid scarf to a more muted outfit to add lots of POP! But really, it's all about what you're comfortable wearing.

Scarves are easy to find. A simple Amazon.com search brings up pages of them. I've bought mine from Old Navy, Dress Barn and Macy's. They are simply EVERYWHERE and in every price range. So, what are you waiting for? Go get yourself a snazzy scarf, and be at the very pinnacle of autumnal fashion :)


Elegantly yours,
Nay
