There is a certain beauty to the act of knotting a long, thin scarf into a very loud knot at the top of your head.

5. Floral Winter Scarf Wrap


Winter florals paired with big knits — the winter warmness against femininity. The manner in which the scarf is wrapped all the way around the neck and head is cozy but exquisitely fragile.
