How to Tie a Scarf Video – Variation on the Slipknot
A couple weeks ago, I taught a workshop for women in the community about How to Make the Most of Your Wardrobe. It was well attended and the women walked away with some great actionable tips, including creative ways to tie a scarf. My friend Rachelle Willhite was so kind as to take some photos and video of the event during the “how to tie a scarf” portion of the segment. Here’s a variation on the slipknot, the most common way to tie a scarf, that adds some texture and interest.
A clever way to wear a scarf is to use it as a beach cover-up and tie it around your waist. Many a woman feels self conscious about her body at the beach and a colorful scarf tied as a sarong is a great way to feel more comfortable in your skin poolside. (As a sidebar, I love how my model Faye is beaming in this picture!)
Daily Outfit: 50 Shades of Grey [Pinspiration]
Perhaps it’s just my mood but lately I’ve been wearing a lot of grey. A lot. And I’ve been loving it.
[Recently my camera fell on the ground and the lens has been having a hard time auto focusing, so forgive the slightly out of focus images.]
This outfit had been inspired by something I saw on Pinterest that I can’t find anywhere so here’s the next best thing from Cupcakes and Cashmere.

Daily Outfit: Jacket, Embellished
For the last few days I have been participating in Freckles in April‘s 10 Day Winter Edition Blog Challenge (which let me tell you, has built such a great sense of community — I’m eating it up!) and today’s challenge was to dress up a jacket. I decided to embellish my jacket with a scarf, worn as a necklace, and a matching head warmer… for lack of a better description.
And can I just say? This was my first time taking my own photos with a tripod and self timer — I think they turned out pretty darn good!
