SCARF LOOKS FOR MEN

Men's style can be a bit more ambigious, so add some flare this season by adding scarves to your look!  Shown below are a variety of ways to wear your scarf, from the casual cool to the business meeting to a night on the town.  Scarves can be the one accessory that makes you and your outfit stand out and get noticed!  Think color, bold geometric patterns, and stripes.  

Different knots for scarves:
Loose Once-Around Knot-for a casual cool look. This is not technically a knot but how you wear the scarf around your neck.
Twice-Around Knot-tied twice tightly around your neck with the ends hanging down.
Parisian Knot-shorter scarf tied tight at neck and kept slightly off center.  
Once-Around Knot-this is the most used type of knot for warmth or for an evening out with a fitted blazer.
