Accessories are essential items in some women’s wardrobes and many times, some of them have a great chance of becoming the protagonists of the looks. In addition to the possibility of increasing and giving a new face to the look, even the most basic ones.
A good example of an accessory that fulfills these functions is the scarf. The “piece” may initially convey the idea of just protecting the neck region from the cold, but depending on the combination, they can steal attention in your combination.
Scarves can be of different textures and fabrics, and can also be printed or plain.
Overall, most have a casual look, but some can have a more sophisticated feel and can integrate looks for special occasions.

In addition to the main function of warming the neck on low temperatures, the scarf can also be a trick to make the look more stylish and with more personality. See below for tips on how to use some specific types of scarf, as recommended by style consultant Danyla Borobio.
black scarf
Undoubtedly this is the wildest model and the most present color in winter. Consultant Danyla, exemplifies the function that this accessory can have: “The black scarf can serve as a “soothing” of looks, because, if the look is composed of a mix of prints or very colorful pieces, it is best for the scarf to have a different color. neutral and nothing better than a black scarf”.
However, in total black looks, it can go almost unnoticed, almost integrating with the blouse. About monochromatic looks, Danyla adds: “For girls who prefer monochromatic looks, however, with style and modernity, they can compose the black scarf with dark neutral clothes, such as navy blue, wine, lead gray and moss/military green”.
Neutral color scarf
Neutral colors, such as beige, brown and grey, for example, are very adaptable and can represent a good investment when choosing a scarf because of the versatility they offer, in addition to the idea of sophistication.
The accessory in neutral colors can be combined with similar colors, but they can also finish off vibrant looks. To make these scarves stand out, you can opt for blouses in contrasting colors, such as a navy blue blouse combined with a beige scarf. Danyla also hints that looks with more information can be finished off with a neutral scarf to not weigh down the information.
animal print scarf
Animal prints are true passions of some women, and without a doubt a scarf with this print can be the protagonist of the look. If you are afraid of making a mistake, when choosing an animal print scarf, prefer plain blouses, so as not to “confront” prints. However, Danyla encourages a mix of prints to be done: “nowadays the animal print is already considered a neutral color, so it is possible to leave an elegant and fun look by composing it with another piece of the look with the same print”.
For the scarf to be your ally, Danyla gives the tip: “Remembering that the place where we use colors and prints will have more attention, in this case the face and neck of the woman, if the face is fuller or the neck is shorter, the scarf can be worn further away from the face and neck, on the shoulders, so the look will be smoother and the silhouette more elongated, giving the feeling of a thinner face and longer neck”.
colorful scarf
This colorful accessory can be the alternative to “brighten up” dark winter clothes. In an all dark look, the brightly colored scarf can be the highlight of the look, but at the same time it is possible to compose a completely monochromatic look, even with the bright colors of the scarf.
About the color combination, Danyla adds: “It is possible to make the colorful look elegant using monochromatic colors (the same color color) or analogous colors (sister/neighbor colors of the chromatic circle). The colorful scarf finishing off a look with similar colors guarantees sophistication, elegance, joviality and a fashionista touch”.
printed scarf
The printed scarf is certainly an option to innovate and escape the traditional. The prints can be varied, but it is worth noting the presence of ethnic prints and the well-known plaid, which is usually present in winter clothes.
About mixing prints, the style consultant indicates: “For the basic level, the mix of polka dot and stripes or floral and stripes, and of course, animal print with animal print are perfect to start. the tip is that the colors must be the same, or the same background of the print or the colors of the same or similar prints, so the look will be less flashy and the woman can be more comfortable”. As for the advanced level, she points out that the combination conveys a more informal idea, and should move away from rigid dress codes.
