Fall Daily Essential: Scarf Obsession!

A scarf is the focal point of your entire outfit, and it defines the mood of your Fall style. What is your scarf saying about you?

One of the most popular mistakes people make, is buying a scarf without considering how you will wear it.  A scarf is just as much functional as fashionable, and therefore, careful calculations are necessary.

Will your Fall coat match? Is it warm enough? It is versatile in function? Does the color compliment your face?

 Many times people just pick a scarf they like without even trying it on, but this is not to your benefit at all. You may adore emerald green, but the question is, does it compliment you? Check it against your skin tone, hair or eye color, and see if it suits you. 

These are my 5 Favorite types of scarves!

                                      ARTSY PATTERNS

A scarf is a brilliant way to add character to a rather orthodox outfit. Use it to add a pop of color, texture, or a bit of character.  Make a statement, and never be forgotten.

                                         BLANKET SCARF

A blanket scarf is "cozy" at its max. It is a relaxed casual that looks chic without trying.

 It is sure to keep you warm on the coldest days, and best of all, you can cuddle up with it all day. 

                                        CASHMERE LOVE

The look of a cashmere scarf is always luxurious and decadent. It is as soft as can be, and it frames your face with such warmth and softness. The perfect scarf for those days you just want to relax and unwind. 

   

                                       LONG KNIT SCARF

Those long wrap around knit scarves are a fun way to add texture to your fall look. The different lengths around the length add interest to the eye, and creates a casual fun look. 

                                             FUR SCARF

A fur scarf, is a glamorous way to add spice to your style. It is soft to the touch and beautiful to see. Just having it near your neck,  it is sure to light up your face and keep you warm.

Fashion Challenge Day 5: OOTD "Rainy Sunday"

Happy Sunday! Today's OOTD is my ultra relaxed style. The color palette is grey and black, but I used various textures of grey to spice up a rather simple look. The blouse is vintage, and sparkles a crystal like grey. The sweater is cashmere, and off sets the sparkle nicely. The scarf is an infinity style, with reversible black and silver stars. The boots are a mixture of canvas grey and leather. 

The entire outfit was inspired by the weather today.  It has been raining softly all day, creating a rather mysterious kind of atmosphere. The clouds are a heavy grey and there was a thick layer of mist, much depicted in the poem's of Edgar Allan Poe. 

There is something great about these types of rainy days. I enjoyed a nice walk through the park and took time to hear the birds, the trees, and my thoughts.

I hope all of you had a relaxing Sunday!
