Les Escarpés

Scarves in France are an important fashion accessory & you see them everywhere.


A scarf is just part of the well dressed look in France.

They are worn by all ages 


......& in all seasons.


Every wearer seems to have his or her own unique way of wearing a scarf.


Some are worn draped like a shawl while others are a more traditional look.


And yes French men are fond of scarves too.

One is never too young to learn the art of accessorizing with a scarf.


It is always a pleasure to regard this most French of traditions & all the colorful ways in which the scarf can be worn.


I am linking this post with Dreaming of France

Wishing one & all a very happy week.

  2. I love the French love of scarves too, and always try to sneak some photos of stylish French scarf wearers. I did a post about it a few weeks ago.

  3. Not so ubiquitous in England as far as I'm aware. Now I shall be keeping a lookout to see if I'm right. They certainly add a splash of glorious colour.

  6. I love scarves too. I have a hard time wearing them in the summer though. I know the French are always on guard against a draft. I'm so glad they found a beautiful way to express that. I like to see men in scarves too. I wish more American men would wear them. Thanks for playing along today. Can't wait to hear what you think about The Hundred Foot Journey. Here’s my Dreaming of France meme

  10. I've always felt awkward wearing scarves except for winter wear. I need to get over that. They look wonderful on everyone else.
    The colors are beautiful.
