Mastering the Art of the Scarf

So, here in Italy, scarves aren't just a fashion statement, they're a necessity. Everyone wears them men, women, children, dogs. I felt distinctly un-Italian not tying a piece of fabric around my neck. So, I've started to get into the habit wearing the adorable scarf pictured above. Initially, I wasn't sure exactly how to wear the thing, and I toyed with tying it around my whole head which resulting in me looking like a Russian grandma (though, a stylish Russian grandma nonetheless.)

But anyway, it turns out scarves are insanely functional. I stay so much warmer with this baby around my neck, although I still don't really know how to make it look exceptionally cute.
