When you think of the silk scarf, most often than not, you would usually imagine it on a lady who is refined and poised. Given this stereotype, can you picture Courtney Love wearing one? We’re talking about Courtney Love here; Kurt Cobain’s ex who used to dress like a grunge queen complete with messy hair, smudged make-up, and all.

Well, imagine no more, here is a refined looking Courtney Love in a silk scarf. And she’s not just wearing it around her neck…take a look.

With the scarf around her head and the sunnies, you wouldn’t think it’s Courtney at all. She looks like royalty in the picture. But, don’t say she’s looking perfect just yet, because check out the picture below.

Sad to say, those leopard print flats and textured stockings are a complete turn off. Don’t get me wrong, I love leopard print shoes, but that, together with the textured stockings, plus the printed blue scarf is all a bit too much. A pair of black pumps or flats and plain stockings would have done the trick. But let’s not ponder on that. We’re all about the scarf here, and the one on Courtney is a beautiful printed blue Hermes.

If you want it, go to the nearest Hermes store in your area and look for it. A piece will probably cost you at least US$700. Or, you can try these:

A&G Rock Skull Collage Print Silk Scarf, US$19

A&G Rock Skull Print Silk Scarf, US$13

A&G Rock Houndstooth Print Silk Scarf, US$17

Wrap it around your head, put on a nice shift dress, some sunnies (and pair it with the right shoes), and look like a polished, poised, and refined lady. You can purchase all three scarves at Overstock.com.
