I am into scarfs... love them.. love them, love them..I worked for the Echo design group and most of what we did was scarfs...so I have alot of them, and had to come up with creative ways of using them...

It can be a great fashion accessory if done right.

this is some of their stuff

I love how that scarf is tied in the picture. I can't ever get mine to look neat and bundled up around my neck like that.

Scarves can pump up an outfit...i work in D.C. and our fashion sense down here is B-O-R-I-N-G. Scarves are great for making basic pieces look chic. I peeped the Echo site and liked what I saw.

It's a better alternative than wearing an annoying turtle neck
