Such pretty knots, lanit! I love the way you "casually tossed on" your Turandot... anyone who didn't know would have no idea that it's a grail... which, of course, is the whole point! :amuse:

Such fantastic looks. My favorite is the black outfit with the hearts carré. I am happy to be twins with you.

Many thanks, Katherine, Elaine and Maedi. We have MYH to thank for originally starting this thread a while ago too. Hope to see more 90’s examples from you all!

I am hoping to see more 90 silks worn casually, and reviving this thread for silk lovers. Here’s a few recent photos from my IG to share. Happy 2018!

Thank you for reviving this thread lanit! You are so adept at wearing your scarves in that "I just tossed this on, but I look amazing" way!!

Lanit, so glad you are reviving this thread!
It’s 4 degrees here today with wind chills of -25! Brrr!
Hope this keeps you warm katherineQ, you look great!!

Casual Friday at the office today and I tried to dress up a bulky turtleneck with a scarf. View attachment 3925791
Lovely hannahsophia! Every time I try to wear a scarf this way, it continually slips off, any suggestions??
 
This looks great! Did you just fold it on the bias and drape it? What keeps it in place? I'd love to try this... :heart:

Thanks Elaine! It is just a bias fold and draped. This particular scarf has been worn a ton and washed so it’s less stiff (super soft!) than a brand new scarf. Pretty much stays put and didn’t move too much yesterday! It was my first time trying the bias fold with a turtleneck. Usually I just wear long necklaces for turtlenecks but I think it paired well.

Thanks Bova! I just replied to Elaine - it’s an oldie that’s super soft now. I had no issues like I do with brand new scarves. Thinking back though, when I go bias fold with a stiffer scarf, I just check it through the day by holding the ends. Usually I just wear them to work so I’m either at my desk or sitting in a meeting - not too afraid of losing it.

If you want more casual inspiration, look here. http://hymneauxcarres.blogspot.com

Although she hasn't updated her blog in quite awhile, you will see some superb casual looks with a 90 carre. I'm not sure who this lady is but I am in awe. There are quite a few posts. Make sure to click on "older posts" in the bottom right corner of the page when you get to the bottom of each page. She also has some work looks mixed in but there are lots and lots of casual outfits.
Just discovering this blog upon reading this thread. Truly a gold mine of styling ideas for casual wear - color combos, outfits, ties, pattern mixing... thanks @MYH!
