Sofia Vergara Dresses Up Her All Black Outfit with a Gucci Wrap

Roselle — Fri, 06 Jan 2012 08:18:55 +0000

It’s a no brainer and we’re pretty sure you know it too – that the best way to spice up a plain outfit is to simply top it with a scarf. Here’s Sofia Vergara doing just that while leaving the set of Modern Family. After filming scenes, the hot Latina put on an all-black ensemble and wrapped herself in a luxe monogrammed scarf from none other than high fashion label, Gucci:

Unfortunately for Sofia however, the Gucci scarf was not wide or large enough to cover the sheer fabric that displayed her backside. Of course, with such a nice and well-toned bum like that, who’d be embarrassed?

Sofia’s Gucci wrap is this patterned GG Monogrammed Shawl from SAKS. It comes in several colors – Sand, Lilac, Blue, and Graphite. If you’re into luxe pieces (and you can afford to spend USD410 on a scarf), this would be a good one to collect. The scarf is of wool silk mix, features the GG logo all over, and comes with two tone fringes. To purchase, simply head over to SAKS!

Colorful Trimmings: Multicolor Scarves To Brighten Your Outfit

Karla Manlangit — Sun, 30 Oct 2011 11:11:28 +0000

Winter outfits tend to be on the dark side. Monotone hues are practical and easy to match with other pieces of clothing one already has. Scarves are a great way to cheer up those gloomy outfits. Anthropologie has one of the most unique and colorful scarf collections– classy and even below the $60 mark! It was difficult to pick a favorite so we came up with four– check them out!

Glass Garden Scarf, $58

This gauzy wool-silk scarf features a stain-glass type of design: rich, luminescent flowers that bleed color, separated by leaded tracings to form an organized mess of an unlikely bouquet.

Dawn to Dusk Scarf, $48

The dawn is depicted in orange-yellow blossoms that become darker towards the ends of the scarf– tiny globes of color arranged in the dark, unpredictable pattern of the night.

Neroli Scarf, $58

A vintage-inspired illustration of orange, blue and yellow flowers paint this canvas-colored wool silk scarf a dream-like design.

Solaris Scarf, $58

Striking, multi-colored shapes cover the length of this tasseled silk scarf and give a unique, slightly more mature design.

Comme Des Garcons Makes a Skirt from Vintage Scarves

Roselle — Sat, 01 Oct 2011 11:09:26 +0000

It’s true what they say about this season. Scarves ARE everywhere. Brands from premium to mass market are now capitalizing on scarves, using its prints/patterns (even the actual scarf itself) and infusing it into their designs. One such label is Comme Des Garcons. Check out this very colorful piece from the brand – the Vintage Scarf Skirt. Yup, this avante garde looking creation is made up entirely of vintage silk scarves, hence the multicolored and print-on-print effect:

Comme Des Garcons Vintage Scarf Skirt, USD2250 at SSENSE

Tell me, can you appreciate it?

I admit, this is not a scarf, it’s a skirt so technically it shouldn’t be here, but it could very well be by the number of silk scarves they used to create the whole thing. It is literally a patchwork of scarves – draped, tucked, pleated, folded, and stitched together just to come up with the piece. This just goes to show that a scarf can be many things and you can do SO MUCH with it. I’m not sure exactly how many vintage silk scarves Comme Des Garcons used to create this skirt, but judging from the really hefty price tag, it’s probably a lot.

That said, I personally love the assorted prints. It’s a cocktail of colorful confection and I can’t help but be amazed. It’s really just too bad that the skirt is quite pricey. I think with a bit of styling, a neat belt, and a good pair of stilettos, this skirt could do more than just stop a crowd.

This Comme Des Garcons Vintage Scarf Skirt is currently available at SSENSE in case you’re one of the few who CAN actually buy it without batting an eyelash. Now if you’re simply in the “WANT but can’t afford” predicament, don’t worry. In fact, thank Comme Des Garcons for giving you a DIY idea. Simply grab several affordable printed scarves from your favorite store like Amazon, and do your magic by turning it into a skirt! Try the following:

1 & 2: TrendsBlue Flower Print Scarf in Olive and Red, USD12 from USD19 / 3: Luxury Lane Printed Silk Scarf in Orange, USD7 from USD28 / Luxury Lane Printed Silk Scarf in Yellow, USD7 from USD28

Shopbop is having a huge Fall Kickoff Sale and their collection is to die for! Dresses, shoes and of course, scarves are getting big discounts! Here are some of the choice picks– exotic scarves that are up to 50% off! Check them out.

Seagull Scarf, $41.65, Madewell

We love the striking blue of this square, voile scarf although it also comes in a galvanized color combo that is equally exotic. This features a bird graphic and a print border with frayed edges. You can wear this with jeans or a plain, structured dress for work.

Python Tie Dye Scarf, $212.50, Matthew Williamson

We can easily see why Matthew Williamson is a constant celebrity favorite in this scarf. It’s drama and color together: a green python tie dye scarf with dip-dyed fringed ends. That’s style and flair for fashion that’s hard to imitate. We see this scarf used with distressed leather coats and strappy ski booties.

Turkish Weave Printed Scarf, $40.60, Madewell

Ikat print is the main feature of this Turkish weave scarf. This can dress up your black pantsuit and other monotone outfits. You can also use this as a striking headscarf on country trips.

The Head Scarf and the Turband

Karla Manlangit — Thu, 01 Sep 2011 18:49:59 +0000

Scarves are great for warding off the cold, but it can also stylishly keep your hair away from your face. Headscarves replace the headband and ponytail holders for much dressier occasions or outfits where looking plain Jane just won’t do.

Candace Head Scarf, $49, Club Monaco, Shopbop

Gigi Headscarf, $143, Eugenia Kim, Shopbop

Headscarves will still be big this fall because of the 1970s influence in the trends and they do look very hippie.

A spin-off on the headscarves, turbands (yes, with a D), are this season’s IT accessory. Neither just a scarf or just a headband, the turband is fast becoming a popular hair accessory for its style and easy functionality.

Love by Headmistress Demi-Turban, $100

Popular turbans like this one from Love by Headmistress are made out of premium velvet and adorned by Liberty of London silk ties and semi-precious stones. Of course, cheaper alternatives are available and they are still just as classy.

Crinkle Headband, $30, Cheap Monday, Shopbop

So which one will you don this season? The head scarf or the turband?

Jennifer Lopez: Looking Fabulous in a Bandanna

Roselle — Sat, 02 Jul 2011 02:23:00 +0000

You’ve probably heard of this news already. Jennifer Lopez had a wardrobe malfunction while guesting on a German talk show in Spain the other week. And while the nip slip was what everyone else was talking about, we here at ScarvesWraps however, were too busy loving the outfit she wore that we pretty much didn’t notice anything else. She had on a lovely printed maxi dress that day, but what gave her look the extra oomph factor was the scarf wrapped like a bandanna around her forehead. Check out these pics:

Jennifer Lopez makes her appearance on the German talk show, Wetten Dass, in Spain, June 18

Doesn’t she look fabulous? Her print on print ensemble looks harmonious and perfect and she looks like a gypsy goddess! It’s also amazing how an accessory such as a scarf (or in this case, a bandanna), can make a HUGE difference in an outfit.

How about you, would you be willing to wear that scarf of yours as a bandanna to give your style a whole new flavor? Or perhaps our question should be, would you rock a bandanna yourself?

You can easily copy Jennifer’s style by grabbing a smaller scarf, a square one in the same color palette as the printed dress you’re going to wear. The scarf from Madewell below is a great example. To complete your look, pair it with a blue printed dress, a tan belt, some platform sandals, and you’re pretty much all set!

Madewell Seagull Scarf, USD60 (Shopbop)

WITH

Maxi dress: Patterson J. Kincaid Brea Maxi Dress, USD198 / Sandal: Pour La Victoire Abigail Platform Sandal, USD192.50 / Earrings: Marc by Marc Jacobs Small Faceted Studs, USD32 / Ring: Tre Anita Ring, USD95 / Belt: Motif 56 Laila Belt, USD100
