As far as women’s accessories go, scarves for women serve multiple functions and lend themselves to dozens of styling options. They can be as bold or demure as you wish, with fabrics ranging from high-end fibers like cashmere and silk to easy-to-clean cotton and synthetic blends. The best part: you’ll find scarves to suit all types of women’s clothing at Macy’s. Before you shop, let’s talk more about these clever style-enhancers.
Function and Fashion
Women’s winter scarves are (obviously) handy for staying warm in cold weather. There are a few general categories to choose from. Most winter scarves are wrap scarves. A wrap scarf has loose ends that can be tied in different ways. Wear it as a classic loop draped once around your neck. Or tie it in a European knot, also called a French or Parisian knot, which features both ends draped through a relaxed front loop. Do you want to cover more? Fold a winter scarf into a rectangle, then into a triangle before tying the ends behind your neck. For those who prefer their winter accessories to be more straightforward, infinite scarves are an instant win. Also called an infinity scarf, this style is shaped like a closed circle with no ends.
Styling Tips and Tricks
Are you wondering how to style women’s scarves & wraps? We’ve got a few ideas. Use a cashmere scarf or a pashmina scarf as a luxe wrap for a sleeveless or strapless dress on an evening out. Wear women’s blanket scarves as statement pieces. These oversized scarves stand out by design, so it’s natural to wear them as visual punctuation with otherwise simple outfits. The classic silk scarf has near-limitless styling possibilities: tie it as a headband, kerchief, or belt. Are silk scarves out of your budget range? Try a ladies’ fashion scarf made from a synthetic material instead. They have a similar look and serve the same purpose as silk scarves but come with a lower price tag.
