A super-cute scarf is a "cold-weather triple threat" accessory. These luxe versions - printed, patterned, textured, and composed of the softest fabrics you've ever touched - provide a dose of color (when needed), fashion functionality, and a sense of personal style. Take it from the likes of Kate Moss, Katie Holmes, and Jessica Alba. While their outfits always prove chic in chillier temps, we've really fallen for the cool prints, artful draping, and plush feel of their neck wraps. Try a fringed and cashmere rendition, a bold leopard overlay, or a rich tribal-infused ascot for starters, and let the wintry wrap effect take hold.

One Minute Makeover Tip: Add a Scarf

Hannah Weil — Thu, 01 Sep 2011 03:30:38 PDT

For the moments when we've all looked in the mirror and thought: I can do better, we've culled our fashionable community, and consulted our editors for the quick-fix styling tips to give you a one-minute makeover - and a boost of confidence. Today's bit of wisdom: add a scarf.

Just adding a scarf to your look instantly adds dimension to even the most basic styles.
Use it to balance color and print. If you're wearing neutrals, go for a pop of color or print to brighten up your ensemble; if you're wearing all-over prints or bold colors, opt for a neutral or black scarf to temper your look.
As for practical use, scarves are an easy layer to tote in (or tied to) your bag to throw on when the chill sets in.
Scarves are truly one-piece wonders. They work not just as decorative add-ons, but as belts, hair accessories, even tops. Check out FabSugar TV for even more ways to wear them.
Keep a scarf in your bag or in your desk drawer for an instant fix. You can tie it on, and ditch your corporate blazer before you head from the office out to drinks.

Freaky or Fabulous? The Swallow-You-Alive Soopa Scarf

FabSugar — Wed, 10 Nov 2010 06:00:05 PST

Let me preface this post by saying that I love a big scarf. Cozy knit scarves are the best; the bigger the better –– or so I thought. After seeing this super long, super chunky Soopa Scarf ($150) by Etsy seller Yooko, I'm not so sure how I feel anymore. Clocking in at about eight feet, nine inches –– with an 11-foot long sister scarf ($220) available as well –– this neck warmer pretty much swallows you alive. I definitely want to be warm –– but I also need to see, and speak, and turn my head! What do you think: is this giant scarf freaky or fabulous?
