scarf study

Scarves have been one of the most popular gift giving items this holiday season. A lot of people have asked different ways to wear all the great styles we've had throughout the fall & winter. Here are a few examples with some easy instructions. Stop in for a free tutorial if you need some hands on help!

Infinity Scarf: a new addition to the scarf family. It's is a connects so it has no end. Simply wrap it around twice and you're all set!

Criss Cross: This look is a twist on the knot below. Fold the scarf in 1/2 and wrap around the neck. Pull 1 end through and then wrap the 2nd end over and back through the loop.

Traditional Knot: This is a classic. Fold the scarf in 1/2, wrap around the neck and pull both ends through the loop.

street style: walt disney world

This is your street style when you go to Disney and it doesn't stop raining for the whole day with a high temp of only 62 degrees. This street style look is completed with rain coats lined with fleece, hoods on our heads tightened as to keep out the water, jeans soaked up to the knees and soggy Chuck Taylors. Was it worth it to experience the happiest place on earth, of course!

Have a great weekend, enjoy this holiday season!
