The Wide Variety of Scarves

Scarf- "a length or square of fabric worn around the neck or head."
A scarf is a simple accessory that can change an outfit and complete it. Scarves have been worn for centuries now in a variety of different ways, patterns and styles. Currently people wear scarves to keep the neck area wam in the fall and winter seasons or just to spice up their outfit from looking so boring. Although it is a simple piece of cloth it can be worn differently based on the type of scarf. One of the most popular scarves of today would be the infinity scarf. 


The Infinity Scarf.

This scarf can be worn on your neck, shoulders or head to accessorize your outfit. The infinity scarf can come in many different lengths and depending on the length of the scarf depends on what you can do with them. The popular material made for this scarf in this season would be knitted wool but they can also be cotton, silk and other fabric materials.  These scarves can be purchased at almost any clothing store that sells scarves. The best part about this accessory is that it is not going to break your bank trying to get ahold of one of these. The general price range for these types of scarves would be around $10-$20.The most common way to wear the infinity scarf is the simple loop or pretzel way. This is when the scarf is placed around your neck and you twist and fold it over your head again so it creates two layers of scarf upon your neck. The name for the infinity scarf comes from its shape, a circle. The scarf goes on for infinity without having any ends to it. 


What is it that makes the infinity scarf such a popular accessory for girls rather than other scarves? For this question I would say that it has to do with the different ways in which you can wear this scarf. Personally, I have learned people come up with different ways to wear scarves everyday. My favorite from this scarf would be the shall or shrug. This way provides a little jacket almost to cover your shoulders while you go out to dinner or are just going out with friends. The scarf is very versatile from the many ways you can wear it but also when you can wear it. Not only can you wear it just going out with a few friends and you wanna stay bundled up but you can also add it to an elegant dress as a coverup or a shall.
