Scarves.

How to Tie a Scarf...

Scarves are one of my favorite accessories that help to tie an outfit together. They add personality, color, flavor, spunk, and creativity to any outfit. They are an outfit enhancer. Scarves can be used for warmth during the winter, style for the spring, excitement for the summer, and flavor in the fall. However, scarves are most common in the winter so I thought a how to was suitable. Here are a few ways to tie a scarf to the way you like it...If you like the tie, click on the name of the tie for a how to then leave a comment...AND if you try any of the ties, take a picture and email it to me cambriairene@gmail.com

Have fun!

P.S. The names for each tie I made up, I don't know if they really have names but for distinguishing purposes (and for fun) I made up a name for each.

*All the ties can be done with any scarf

1. Grab your scarf















2. Drape around your neck








3. Sling one side to the back. You can wear like this if you want, the asymmetrical sling.











 





4. Sling other side to the back. You can always tie it loosely in the back and wear it like this.




5. Bring both dangling ends from the back to the front. Adjust to the way you like it and look fly! :)

Quick tip: having the knot around the neckline of the shirt tends to be most flattering.

Up and Running.

This blog is my take on fashion, trends, and things that just look stylish. Please feel free to leave any feedback, as that always helps to make a blog more interesting. My goal in this blog is to help men and women to be creative when it comes to fashion, be daring, don't be scared to express yourself. Try that boot you've been eyeing or that jacket you felt you could never pull off. Ultimately I hope that people can gain confidence when reading this and hopefully try new things. I am LDS (if you don't know what that is click on the link) so everything that I post will be modest but stylish at the same time. I love fashion. Fashion is is a way to show who you are on the inside by the way you dress, it's a way to express yourself. Fashion, to me, is a way you can respect and love yourself!

What you can expect from this blog:
  • Outfits put together
  • Accessories
  • Deals at local and online stores
  • Fashion on a budget
  • New outfit ideas
  • How to put an outfit together
  • How to wear...
  • Hopefully a confidence boost
  • And maybe a few contests and give-aways
What I hope to get back:
  • Feedback on if this blog is helpful, fun, dull, anything!
  • More ideas 
  • If you have anything you'd like to share, please don't be shy!
