2. Pick the right scarf color 

You probably already know which colors suit you best. Because scarves are often worn close to the face, choose shades that complement your skin tone, eyes and hair color.

3. Choose the right scarf size 

Consider your proportions and the look you want to create. Smaller scarves can provide a neat accent, while larger scarves offer more volume and styling possibilities. Your scarf should enhance your outfit rather than overwhelm it.
