This is my first Aussie Curves post on this blog. I have participated in Aussie Curves since the very beginning, over at my old blog Sister's Closet. I have left that blog open, so feel free to check out any old Aussie Curves posts.
Animal print is one pattern that generally is always around. Who can resist a bit of leopard print? while animal print isn't something I always gravitate towards, I have a few items that feature it.
When I decided to dress for this challenge I pulled out a few pieces that I owned. However, it was a sunny, but windy day. I vetoed a dress I have as skirts/dresses on a windy day are not always wise. I thought about a kimono jacket I have, but it felt too dark. I wanted a pop of colour.
That is when spied my colorful neon animal print scarf. It is a last season purchase from Kmart. It was actually much wider, however I cut it in half as I had found it a bit too full when I wore it as a scarf.

I don't usually wear head scarves as I find they don't sit well and don;t seem to suit me. However, on this particular say it worked. Hurrah! It meant my hair was able to stay in place on the windy day, gave me a pop of much needed colour, and looked rather hip.
I kept everything else very plain, as I was letting the scarf feature. I usually wear a big, bold necklace but I felt bangle suited it better.
I have now been inspired to try wearing a headscarf more often, what do you think?
what a great bright scarf! works well!
ReplyDeleteI love the colours!
DeleteI like this scarf, the brightness and the way you have styled it is very cool - woodstock style :). Great blog layout too.
ReplyDeleteI am glad you like the layout. I did it all myself and am feeling rather chuffed
DeleteThe scarf totally rocks. I can't wear scarves on my head as they slip off and get tangled in me hair. One day! You give me hope.
ReplyDeleteI think the trick was to put it on thicker, then fold it so it sits right :)
