I love scarves all year round. I think you look great! For a hotter day, try wrapping it around your wrist as a bracelet (if it’s a light enough fabric) or twisting it into a necklace that hangs more loosely around your neck – another way is to wear it wrapped in your hair – a classic look that works for all hair lengths. I *love* your “gray scale” outfit!

I love this monochromatic look on you!

As for summer scarves, it really depends on the day for me. Some days I can’t bear the thought of extra fabric around my neck, but other days it’s cool enough. They really are perfect for chilly offices though :)

Summer scarves … that’s a tough one. I like the look and the style, but it does seem kind of odd when it’s warm out. If it’s leight weight enough though I can see it being more like a necklace instead of a scarf for warmth. Either way, it looks great! I wore one about a month ago and it worked out OK.

I love how you spell grey ‘correctly’ – heehee!

I’m curious as to how summer scarves rate in terms of ‘wearability’. I wear scarves all the time in winter because IT’S COLD, but in summer wouldn’t they be annoying? You LOOK terrific in that scarf, but how does it wear?

I adore the summer scarf – I always feel more chic and pulled-together with a scarf, somehow. This one looks fab on you, lady!

I love the summer scarf trend I wear one at least twice a week! I think the more you wear one the more comfortable you’ll feel!

Gray is a color.
Grey is a *colour*

:-) Gray is the way Americans changed the spelling from the English original over time. Either is considered acceptable when talking about names.

I am not sure about the summer scarf thing either. When I have something around my neck, it always makes me warm, even if it is light weight. I think for me, scarves have to be fall through spring, no summer.
That said, I do think a light weight scarf looks great on other people in the summer!
