Well, it's about time I spiffed up. I mean, I do have a book signing to go to in a couple off week. (I'll be signing The Walled Flower. If you're in the Rochester, NY area -- maybe you can come and say "HI!")
Now, I hate to dress up, but in the past couple of months, I've invested in several scarves. I have a really pretty purple and gold one (it shimmers), silver, a black-and-white floral. I even have a few knitted ones. (The one I made myself convinced me that my knitting days are over, thank you very little Mr. Carpal Tunnel syndrome.)
But what do I know about wearing them? Well, isn't Google just the best thing around. I found a video to help me out. (Although, come on -- NOT choice No. 3. The woman looks like she's trying out to be the bow on a Valentine's Day gift.)
So far I've successfully worn one of my scarves once. I mean, I went to a party and nobody laughed. In fact, a couple of other women were wearing very nice scarves. I felt like I belonged (and believe me, that doesn't happen very often).
Do you wear scares to spiff up?
