Build a Capsule Wardrobe by Starting with a scarf: Hermès Arbre de Vie

June 2, 2012

Yes, you are seeing LOTS of "what to wear with" - especially with scarves. You can't imagine how many requests I received... But I like these little vignettes; even if you don't want to buy or wear the scarf, the colors in the scarf can be a great springboard for a few well-coordinated outfits!

And for great scarf tying ideas, check my friend Mai Tai's site; she is the complete GENIUS of scarf tying...

love, Janice ... View the Post
