The Red Scarf

I have a confession to make: I have a deep, growing obsession for scarves. I dream about wearing scarves to mix and match with my outfit. I want one of every color and pattern. I would normally frown at this idea because I wanted to keep my shopping expenses to a minimum. But when you buy something that you really like and know you have plenty of use for it, there is no place for regret. Such is the case with this new scarf that I got.


Have you noticed how I've overloaded on red lately? From scarves, to dresses, to nail polish, and of course, lipstick... what can I do? I just love it. The color is bold. Hard to pull off but when you can, it makes the whole look stand out.

For this look, I paired my red scarf with a basic leopard top. I find that red works well with leopard prints. Hence, this pairing was a no-brainer for me. I paired the top with basic black leggings so as not to mess up the harmony of the colors. Adding too much bold colors in one outfit will make it look like a total mess, I can imagine. I think it worked in highlighting the red scarf, which was my main goal here.







Are you as into scarves as I am? Come on, spill the beans.. xx

  4. Gorgeous! I am not really a scarf person, although we are heading into Autumn here so I might need to invest in some.

  5. I like how the red scarf makes the whole look stand out.I love scarves! They're my obsession, I have a bunch of them for all seasons. Summer, where I live, is very very hot this year so lately I'm not having a lot of chances to wear light scarves, but everytime I can I throw one on. A good scarf makes an outfit stand out. Check out my blog to see some of my scarves :) http://myobsessionsdiary.blogspot.com.ar/
