With the arrival of spring, we take off bulky down jackets, fur coats and insulated winter shoes, add colors to our wardrobe and current styles. Only now fashion changes, every season something new comes and only a small part of the trends are fixed and remain relevant for 5 or even 10 years.
Those who cannot update their outerwear wardrobe every season buy a basic classic coat or trench coat. And they do it right. After all, these things will always be relevant, appropriate in any image - business, feminine or daring. A current scarf or stole will help you create a modern look with a 5-year-old coat. These accessories are cheaper than outerwear, so they can be purchased more often, even for those who do not have a large shopping budget.
What scarves and stoles to wear this spring
Those who follow fashion and adhere to personal style know that you don’t need to update your wardrobe every season to look fashionable. It is enough to add fashionable jewelry, a bag or a scarf to basic clothes.The latter is presented at fashion shows in different styles, colors, trendy prints and different fabrics. In general, everyone will find something for themselves, regardless of style, body type and age.
A scarf can lighten up a boring look and complement an elegant look, and on days of a hooligan mood, a scarf in a sporty style will come in handy. So, let's get down to fashionable scarves and stoles of 2019.
Fabrics
This season's fabrics are warm and soft - wool, cashmere, silk, fur. Knitted models are found in the form of a simple fabric or with figured patterns, large and fine knitting. If we are talking about large knitting, then it is worth mentioning the ultra-large knitting, which was popular several seasons ago. This is not relevant today.
REFERENCE! Among the knitted models there is an unusual style - scarf sleeves. The middle of the product looks like a regular scarf, and its edges are made in the shape of sweater sleeves. This accessory can be worn in the usual way, or you can thread your arms through the sleeves.
Ultra-warm format - quilted scarf on padding polyester. It looks like a piece of a down jacket or blanket. On one side it has a hole. It is designed to be fixed - just thread the other end into the hole. Sometimes, instead of a hole, a voluminous loop is sewn, similar to the one that holds a belt on trousers. But you can simply tie it in an unfinished knot.
The next trend is fur stoles. There are openly fur products, like a piece of fur coat, and there are models knitted from thin fur threads.
IMPORTANT! Fashionable in 2019, fringe is also popular among scarves and stoles. This can be a continuation of knitting, silk or cashmere threads, or even leather fringe. The latter is sewn to a regular fabric scarf.
Colors, prints
As in other areas of the wardrobe, the trendy colors extend to scarves and stoles. All shades of brown are especially popular - beige, cocoa or coffee with milk, light brown, dark brown and others. Orange and yellow are relevant, or rather their shades – sand, mustard, copper.
Burgundy color never ceases to be in trend. Its shades can be different, but it is present more in prints than in the plain version.
IMPORTANT! If you don’t like any of the fashionable colors or don’t fit your wardrobe palette, don’t chase trends. Choose the shade that suits you, and its style and texture will add relevance.
Delicate shades of blue were often seen at fashion shows this season, the main thing is that it matches the rest of the clothes. Also trending are blue, gray, red, purple, olive and green.
Regarding prints, the following are relevant here, as elsewhere:
- all cell options;
- stripe – black and white, multi-colored in 2-3 shades;
- geometric pattern - clear shapes and abstraction;
- ethnic motives;
- flowers – inherent in silk scarves;
- animal prints, especially leopard;
- sporty print reminiscent of football fan scarves.
IMPORTANT! In 2019, bright, catchy scarves and stoles are trendy. But no one canceled the classics. If you don’t want bright prints, choose checks and stripes in subdued colors, they are always in fashion.
How to combine with outerwear
We sorted out the styles, colors and fabrics. But it’s not enough to buy a trendy accessory to be stylish. You need to be able to combine it correctly with outerwear.
IMPORTANT! Before buying a scarf, carefully examine your wardrobe - the palette and styles. This will help you choose the right accessory.
With a coat
Knitted and woolen models look harmonious with the coat. However, you can experiment with other fabrics. The main thing is to stick to a harmonious combination of prints and shades. If your coat is plaid, houndstooth or another print, complement it with a plain scarf, preferably in basic colors. And if you want brightness, choose red, purple or burgundy.
For a plain coat, you can choose a brighter accessory – with bright fashionable prints. When choosing a print and color, consider the color of the trousers or skirt, shoes and bag.
ADVICE! A brown coat looks stylish in combination with a cashmere blue scarf in a red, yellow and white check. A wool stole with ethnic motifs and fringe will go well with a light, plain coat.
This rule may not be followed when combining a plain coat and a stole or scarf. But 2 things with bright prints can look too colorful.
With a raincoat
The rule is to combine prints and plain colors, as with a coat. Less voluminous models - made of wool or silk - are suitable for the raincoat; stoles made of cashmere are acceptable. But the texture of a raincoat is thinner and lighter than a coat, so knitted and fur accessories will look out of place.
