tie one on...


when it comes to scarves...i divide women into two categories...those who know how to wear scarves...and those who don't...for much of my adult life...i was one of the women who didn't...and then i decided to transform myself into one of the women who did...
try it...and see how it makes you feel...
i often tell my clients...this is one of the easiest ways to update an old outfit...or to add color to an outfit...
add a silk scarf to your regular blazer...or...tie one casually onto the side of your purse or your briefcase...(that style was started by babe paley...the wife of cbs owner bill paley...she took hers off and tied it to her handbag, photographers snapped the scene, and within weeks everyone was doing it.)
would you like to feel like grace kelly in the movie to catch a thief? my girlfriend seems to have grasped this moment...and lives it...tie a scarf on your head...don your biggest sunglasses...drive with the top down...and let passersby wonder, "who was that woman?"
the best silk scarves are...of course...from hermes...and they cost upwards of $300...but type the word "hermes" into the search function of ebay...and you'll be delighted at what comes up...
so are you a woman who does wear scarves? what is your favorite way?
