Right after reviewing some beautiful light scarves to wear all year round, here are trendy scarves that you can wear for this winter. Let me introduce you to Adi Bakshi scarves on a fashion site Coolil. I know a lot of the more crafty girls like to make these on their own, but for relatively inexpensive scarves like these, I’d rather just buy one. It saves me time and effort that I can put into other things—which is my philosophy for many things. It truly worked for me, but it was hard to break the habit of DIY.

So here’s your chance to win a cute and quality scarf with the color of your choice by Adi Bakshi. There will be 3 winners with 1 scarf each! If you don’t win, hey just buy one—it’s easy  on your pocket! Below is the video tutorial by Adi Bakshi, and beneath that is the entry form for the giveaway.

If a “silk” scarf is being sold brand new for about $5, I start to wonder if it really is made of silk. I always thought that silk was such a luxury material, and I can’t really tell whether the silk is genuine. Well, designer Joan Reese has an Etsy shop that showcases her beautiful original hand-painted silk scarf creations. She also tries to educate consumers on what is real vs. what isn’t really silk on her Youtube page.

I don’t know about you, but I wear even my lighter scarves all year round. That’s because even when your winter coat is off, a scarf is a nice addition to your overall outfit. I don’t ever put away my lighter scarves away once the season gets colder, because I can also wear them as a head or hair piece.

Joan’s scarves are elegant, unique, 100% silk made from French imported dyes (colors stay permanent), and can be washed in cool water and shampoo. They are all individually signed, hand-hemmed, and are long enough to do all sorts of styling with (11″x60″).

If you feel like giving a wonderful woman in your life this Christmas an original scarf creation, Joan also accepts personalization. Receive 10% off when you become a fan of hers on Facebook.

So you think you need to ditch the head gear for summer? No need to sacrifice comfort for style with these light-weight wonder scarves! The lovely owner of The Style Underground contacted me to give away three scarves or hats to readers of à la Modest. I will be randomly picking three winners per item, so there are more chances to win! I was also requested to style one item of my choice that I will be putting up in a separate post. I picked the Luxe Silk Voile Scarf made from a silky and breathable fabric by Prada (materials are designer made). I usually avoid wearing hats, scarves, or anything in my head because I have hair as thick as my little brother’s skull, but this scarf actually made me feel a bit cooler… in both senses.
