Scarf Print Tops

Scarf prints are one of the prettiest, most classic ways to add a dash of ladylike chic to your wardrobe. Here's how to identify and incorporate scarf prints into your wardrobe:
  • Scarf prints are distinguished by common themes you'd likely see in a scarf: medallions, paisley, animal prints, repeating geometrics, dots, etc. Most of the newest tops are in silk or polyester (shiny!), but they can also be made out of cotton gauze.
  • The most flattering new scarf print blouses come in vibrant hues, with simple shapes: tunics like the one pictured from Classiques Entier. (Buy Direct), smocked bottom blousons, short-sleeve hip-skimming tops.
  • Scarf prints look great on every size and shape if you a)choose a silhouette that flatters your figure (for larger women that means a tunic with less fullness; thinner women can carry off the blousy babydolls) and b) tone down the rest of the look (minimal jewelry).
  • Scarf print tops are chic with solid business suits or paired with dark denim for weekend. And they are perfect with your favorite black pants.
