Gowntown Scarves Have you Covered

Scarves.  I am a longtime fan of scarves, but I've mostly confined my scarf collection to the winter variety.  In the spring of this year I decided to add a lightweight chiffon scarf to my wardrobe and I loved it so much that when Gowntown Vintage asked me to collaborate with them on the release of their new scarf collection, I jumped at the chance.

Lightweight scarves such as this Womens' Chiffon Scarf were a popular feature of women's fashion from the 1920s through the 1960s and perhaps into the 70s.  They were stylish and practical with so many uses from being worn around the neck, over the hair, as a headband, or simply as a pony tail decoration; scarves were a staple in every woman's wardrobe.   

My fashion muse, Ms. Audrey Hepburn, wore them many ways as you can see from the pics above.  From accenting her outfit to protecting her hair-do, she always made them look good, and I felt that for that proper finish to any vintage look, a scarf is a necessity.

It really is the little extra things that can make or break an outfit and I love the way this scarf adds such color and character to the overall look.  I've put together a little video down below of all the ways I styled this, though I know there are a few more I didn't cover, and I can't wait to come up with more styles with this gorgeous red scarf.  But, the best part is that Gowntown is offering my readers an extra 30% off their purchase of this scarf with code yourscarf
