The scarf



Scarves have been important key pieces in my wardrobe for a few seasons. I use them most of the time and I just realized that I have made myself ​​a nice little collection. Nevertheless, sometimes it can be difficult to think of new ways to wear it and make it interesting again. How many different and creative techniques can we use to wrap a scarf around our neck? Well, let me offer you my 4 favorite ways to do it this winter.

1. The wraparound

To achieve this look, you'll need a long scarf, which is particularly thick knit. Start by holding one end of the scarf against your neck, then just wrap the other end around it until you run out of fabric. Then tuck the remaining end into the fabric, making sure to hide it. Here it is: your long scarf now have the cozy appearance of a donut.



2. The braided

Double layer your scarf and wrap it around your neck, as if you make a noose. Thread one end of the scarf through the loop, turn the loop once, then pass the other end through. Pull the ends slightly to tighten the braid. This trend works best with more delicate silk scarves, chiffon or other delicate knits.



3 .The freestyle

This option is becoming increasingly popular (especially on warm autumn days). It is simply to let the two ends of your scarf to swing freely on each side of your neck. This look is definitely versatile, because it works with almost all types of scarf, including different lengths and thicknesses and give an instant "glamorous" side to your ensemble.


4. The trolling

This look works really well if you go for a concept à la “Olsen bohemian inspiration - chic." Start by draping your scarf on the nape of your neck and then make a full turn with the remaining end. Nothing is more eye-catching than walking with a firm step, leaving behind a flowy long scarf. I assure you that you will certainly fell on top of your game, or at least in the wind ;-).


And you? How do you wear your scarf?

The sneaker, like we know it today, was introduced to us with great reviews and popularity by no other than Isabel Marant .

Leandra Medine of
the famous blog Man Repeller, gives all the credit to the famous designer: "I truly believe that Isabel Marant's model is a highly stylized excuse for a "street fashioner", a drug for women involved in the search of novelty, to finally start wearing more comfortable shoes , "said Medina .After years of fun and impractical high heels, it seems that the trend carries us toward something more classic and wearable without falling into the orthopedic look.The trend is so strong that even the well known sports brand like Puma have decide to use one of the coolest artists on the planet, Solange Knowles, to revamp its collections. Last night, the singer announced that she will be the new artistic director and creative consultant of the famous company .So celebrate the passing fashion by adding comfort to a classic or stylish dress with a great pair of New Balance, or a touch of pastel and a mix of neon with Nike. It was a long time ago that the ultimate look was in the form of a shoe not only flat , but extra comfortable. Enjoy it while it passes, words of a fashionista!
