Scarf Inspiration

I love scarves as they are such a great way to brighten up an outfit and a bit like wearing a piece of art but just occasionally I struggle for inspiration on how to wear them. Lately there seems to have been a lot of interest in different ways to wear scarves.

I have been getting plenty of inspiration from the J'aime Mon Carre site by Hermes. This week I also noticed it is 'The Scarf Fornight' at Liberty. 2 weeks of scarf obsession - just my cup of tea! It includes 'how to tie a scarf videos' and a blog with people posing in their favourite scarves from Liberty. They also have the most amazing selection of scarves which is enough to get me scrawling out my Christmas list.

My favourite look was using scarves to create an eclectic mix or pattern and colour which featured in quite a few pictures. My attempt at doing so using my second hand Liberty scarf bought from Vintage At Goodwood is pictured above. I love stripes as you can mix them with almost anything. I definitely need more scarves in my life, here are some of the babies that I have spotted lately,

Do you love scarves? If so how do you wear yours?

Have a great week

Hermes Pour Liberty

The latest collaboration between Liberty, luxury department store with a reputation for it's prints and iconic brand Hermes is a match made in heaven. A Hermes scarf has always been on my must have list of ultra stylish accessories but with the release of these Limited edition Hermes pour Liberty scarves in the Tana Lawn cottons, designed by Bali Barret, Creative Director of Hermès Silk, there is even more reason to get my myself accessorised for winter. The scarves which are available in two sizes and six different micro floral prints, are screen printed with Hermès' iconic 'Ex Libris' design.

I just can't resist this amazing marriage between two such iconic labels and the limited number of them makes them even more desirable. I love the colours in this poppy daisy floral print. I think it would look amazing with a simple white top of shirt, a purple or navy dress or for a really eclectic look some clashing colours or patterns.
