Fashion Trend: The Head Scarf—Start Practicing Now
“THIS PRODUCT IS NO LONGER BEING SOLD”
What: According to The Telegraph’s Style Page (and thanks to designers like Jean Paul Gaultier and Dolce & Gabbana) the head scarf may be poised for a return this fall.
What We Say: To return, the headscarf would have had to have been popular sometime in the last 20 years or so, which, in mainstream circles, it has not. Does that mean it should be avoided? Not necessarily, but it’s not an easy look to pull off. Even The Telegraph’s Celia Warden is afraid of looking like she’s wearing a Babushka. Let’s just say this—we love, love, love a beautiful silk (or silk-like) print scarf. If you want to give the head-shrouding look a go, we’re not against it—but if you’re not feeling it, go ahead and just tie one around your neck and you’ll still be super-fab.

Best Scarves on a Budget: Reader Advice
Wait a minute . . . scarves? Sounds a bit wintery, doesn’t it? But we’re not talking grandma-knitted wool mufflers here—we mean something more along the lines of oh, say, Grace Kelly and Jackie O. Scarves, in our humble opinion, are a great style note that can add a little personality to any outfit without adding a huge charge to your credit card bill. Last fall, the graphic print silk scarf started to take hold, and we expect it to be back this year. Meaning you’ll want to get one, for less. But where? We really love Banana Republic for a quality silk scarf (like the scarf pictured here for $39) and for something even less expensive? Try Forever21. But that’s enough from us—where do you find great scarves for less?
