Since the beginning of time, wise men have understood the importance of keeping their neck wrapped up in warm wool or heavy fabric to fight the frigid elements. The same goes for today. Naked necks are no good. Scarves come in such a wide variety of colours, fabrics, shapes, and sizes, that there’s simply no excuse for not rocking one in the cold weather.
Whether you prefer traditional knit scarves like your gran makes, or more modern versions like the infinity style, these neck wraps offer more than just warmth. Scarves are an excellent accessory you can use to dress up any cold-weather ensemble. With so many options to choose from, you can practically start your own mini-wardrobe of scarves to wear for any occasion. And if you're not the adventurous type, having one black scarf at the ready is the perfect go-to choice that looks great with anything.
These days, you can find men's scarves in just about any type, colour, print, and weight of fabric. Some fabrics, like merino wool, cotton, linen, and cashmere, are made from natural fibers found in nature from plants or animals. Others, like acrylic, rayon, polyester, and spandex are synthetic, man-made materials. Natural fiber fabrics are often more luxurious and comfortable to wear, while synthetic fabrics are sometimes more durable and stain-resistant. When it comes to your scarf collection, it's best to a have a wide variety of styles, colors, and fabrics that you can choose from when putting together your daily ensemble.
Whether it's tartan or houndstooth, solids or stripes, dots or animal print, a scarf is an amazing and easy way for you to express your personal style. Choose a lightweight variety made of breathable cotton for those rare warm days of fall, or go with a heavy cable knit to battle the relentless cold of winter. Neutrals are always great choices, but live the colourful life with rich reds, bold blues, and earthy greens. You can even be a little rebel who wears sunshine yellow among all the greys and browns of autumn. Whatever you do, don't neglect your neck!
There are countless ways to tie your scarf. Depending on the length of your scarf, the look you're going for, and the weather, you can choose which tie method is best on any given day. Think of your scarf as a chunky, long tie. Think of all the ways you can tie a necktie. Try tying your scarf loosely using some of those methods, or simply leave one end hanging in the front while throwing the other end over your shoulder for a timeless, classic look that works with any outfit.
Aside from keeping your neck warm, scarves are the perfect cold-weather accessory for dressing up your daily look. Stock up and look amazing all season.
