Scarf it up
While scarves have been rocking the runway for years, they are gradually reemerging in a unique ready-to-wear trend. More recently used as bag straps, purse accessories and even as ankle straps, it appears the classic scarf is undergoing a reinvention. So, if you’re looking to grab some attention by wearing a scarf, why not use a square one as a headscarf or allow a longer cashmere number to fall in front of your outfit and pair with a thin belt to hold in place. This will allow your scarf to take the focal point while sculpting your waist. For those summer days, accessorise your outfit with a delicate scarved wrapped around your wrist.
