What Should I Look For In A Scarf?

When shopping for the perfect scarf, Gurls, there are a few things to keep in mind. First, think about the material—lighter fabrics like silk are great for adding a touch of elegance, while wool and cashmere offer more warmth for the colder months.

The size and shape also matter; whether it’s a silk square or a cozy blanket scarf, you want something that gives you plenty of styling options, like tying it in a French knot or draping it over your shoulders. Don’t forget to consider the color and pattern—neutral tones work with almost any outfit, but bold patterns like floral or plaid can add that perfect pop of color to your look.

Also, keep in mind care instructions and durability, especially if you’re picking a delicate material that might need hand washing. Choose a scarf that suits your lifestyle—something versatile enough to be worn in numerous ways, whether as a headscarf, neck wrap, or even around the handle of your handbag. Most importantly, pick a scarf that reflects your personal style and can easily elevate any outfit.

This blue and gold scarf from Ann Taylor is a classic choice. The silk fabric would drape beautifully, instantly adding elegance to any look. I could totally see this styled with jeans and a simple white tee for a pop of color, or even wrapped around the handle of your handbag for that little extra flair. It’s perfect for those days when you want a timeless accessory to pull your outfit together without too much fuss. Plus, it would be a great way to add some warmth during the colder months.
