I inherited drawers full of scarves of almost every shape and size from both grandmothers and my mama. The ones with a sturdier texture: wool, cotton…I seem to be able to figure out ways to wear, but the silky ones strike me as impossible most days! Lots of inspiration this week though. Between you and http://www.academicchic.com, I’ll be set for at least a few years! (Be sure to check out the hermes link they mention several posts down!!)

(It was farther back than I thought. MUST see these scarf guides! http://usa.hermes.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/PlayTimeView?storeId=10202&catalogId=10052&langId=-1#)

I usually wear scarfs the classic way: around ny head or around my neck =)
Loved the version on the bottom right on the first picture, think I’m going to try it! If I can manage to get that draped look to stay put…
Great photos on an indeed very tricky issue (I’m also quite infrequent in my scarf-wearing)

Thanks for this! I’m boring and always halve my scarf then put it back through the loop
