Closet Fashion Analysis:
What Makes the Best and the Worst
Nice: Last year for my birthday, my friend Shirley gave me a silk floral scarf. I'm not big on florals but this is a chameleon scarf and I love it — I can wear it with anything. It seems that every colour is in it but not in a garish way. It blends with blues and greens and highlights reds, purples and pinks.
It's a huge square and the silk drapes beautifully. Truly I have never owned a scarf with so many good qualities. This one is my once in a lifetime scarf.
So not only is it now my favourite, it is also my most precious. She hand-rolled, and hand-stitched the hem. And this was before COVID isolation practices. I am still in awe, seven months later.
As well it not only adorns me but I have it in my living room, draped over a chair and the effect is better in real life than what is represented by my amateur photography skills.
Note-Worthy: I have many favourites but they are relegated to particular outfits and can only be worn with one or two items. My blue, red, brown and beige scarf is limited. It complements the colours within it and that's it. Besides, it's a fine wool and is too warm to wear in the summer although it doesn't look or feel heavy. Besides, it's in my French closet so it's not working for me while still in Canada owing to "the Covid".
No Thanks: Then there's this one. Why I ever bought it, I still can't figure out. It's only redeeming feature is that it is silk but it is a difficult-to-do-anything-with size and goes with nothing in my wardrobe.
Perhaps I should have a scarf exchange - invite fewer than 10 people with instructions to bring their least favourite scarves and then put them out for grabs. This of course would best be complemented by drinking wine and since it's summer, a French rosé would be perfect. Add some open your own snacks and munchies and you have a healthy compliance to pandemic morés.
