Well guys, I finally got up the courage to wear the Hermès scarf that I thrifted (see this post for more details) for $2 at Salvation Army. I have been so nervous to wear this scarf because of it's value - I am not used to wearing expensive things. Being that I am such a huge klutz, I was so sure that I was going to spill something on it, but I am proud to say that I made it!
The next hurdle was to figure out just how to wear the scarf. The scarf is large and square and I looked like a hot mess trying to style it. Kind of like a fish out of water - flopping all about. I styled it a few different ways throughout the day. I think I like it free hanging the most. What do you all think?
Shirt: My mom thrifted for me, Pants: Express, Belt: Le Dominique Consignment,
Shoes: Elder Beerman, Watch: Charming Charlie, Scarf: Hermès via Salvation Army
I'm kind of a hot mess today - so ignore my crazy hair and bad pictures.
What do you think of this look?
I really like this look! The red pants are awesome and that scarf is rockin!!!

i think that your hair looks fab so u don't have to apologize to us. love your hot red pants.
ReplyDeleteYou look fabulous and I love the way you wear this gorgeous scarf on the first snap: very stylish!!!
ReplyDeleteIlike the shirt as well!!!
love your style
ReplyDeleteOf course you pull this off amazing-ly. Those red trousers make your legs look miles long! (jealous). And I wish my hair looked like yours when it's "messy." My messy consists of a samurai bun with a way too long rat-tail. Cute, i know.

ReplyDeleteThis is such a cute look. I love the color combo. I wear my scarf like how you have it in the first picture.

Your look is wonderful! :)
ReplyDeleteDear Nervous Nellie:
ReplyDeleteI know this fabulous blogger named Bessie from Bravoe Runway that would TOTALLY be happy to take this piece off your hands. After all if you are worried of ruining or spilling something on it this piece would just sit in your closet. I know she has a mild case of OCD so she would take awesome care of it! HAHA! LOVE what you did with the scarf Kassi and don't worry, it can be cleaned :) It looks great with the red pants and the blouse
Haha, I think you styled this amazing scarf beautifully <3
ReplyDeleteLove how you paired it with hot red pants! You look gorgeous.
And I know, whenever I wear something that's valuable to me (like a scarf or nice jacket) I take it off when I'm eating. Just because I have this awful habit of spilling!

It looks great! I like free hanging version better... but it looks good even when knotted, like in the first pic!

Looking great, dear!<3
ReplyDeleteI've been excited to see this awesome scarf on you :) What an amazing thrifted find!! Love the colors in it. I like the way you wore it in the first photo best... and it would also be really cute tied to a bag as an accessory! :) Have a great day rocking your Hermes!!!
ReplyDeleteI really love the scarf! I can't believe you found it at that price, that's pretty amazing! If you go to the Hermes website they show how to wear it, but I think you did a pretty awesome job at it, you look great!
ReplyDeleteRed looks great on you!
ReplyDeleteAnd that scarf is so cute! <3
I gave away all of my scarves years ago for just that reason. I just don't have that much fashion talent. Hee Hee

Love the red pants! So awesome.
ReplyDeleteLove the saturated colors of this outfit!!!

Shut up. I can't believe you thrifted Hermes for $2. I'd be nervous too. But you look gorgeous - the colors are just smashing.
ReplyDeleteOh, yes!! I like it hanging free too. ;) hehe And you look absolutely stunning in these bright colors!
ReplyDeleteOh yay, you're wearing the amazing scarf! looks great, I like how you've reflected the colours with your outfit. Your red jeans rock Kassi!
ReplyDeleteYou did fabulous styling the scarf! So jelly of your find!

The scarf looks amazing on you! Love it with that braid in your hair!
ReplyDeleteI think you styled it great! I have a square scarf that I've worn a few times and I like to tie it in a bow! I know, sounds ridiculous. But it's a completely fun feminine way to show it off!
ReplyDeleteLuvv, Leigh B
Fabulous, just like you! I don't blame you for being nervous at all, but I think you styled it brilliantly - especially with those pants - yowza! I need a pair of red pants immediately. And an Hermes scarf. Can you go find another one for me? :)
ReplyDeleteThat Hermes scarf is soooooo gorgeous! I really like the first way, tied in the front like that! :) And the red pants look awesome on you! I am yet to find the red pants for myself... :/
ReplyDeleteGood luck!
