Here’s another great example of how a scarf can do wonders for your outfit, no matter how ordinary.
Check out Cindy Crawford’s airport style from her trip back to Los Angeles. The former supermodel was decked in a simple sweater and jeans as she arrived at LAX with her daughter early this month.

Her attire for the day was certainly nothing fancy. It was even extra casual, given the pair of shoes she wore, namely flat thong sandals.
Despite the laid-back ensemble, however, Cindy still looked elegant as she made her way out of the airport. Her secret — a pair of sunglasses for added drama, plus a gorgeously printed scarf.

Ok, we admit it. Perhaps being tall and statuesque helped a little in the good-looking department. But if we “isolate” that particular characteristic and put the same outfit on a small lady like, say, Vanessa Hudgens, you’ll still get the same elegant vibe.
That’s basically the power of a good scarf. In which case, this is a cue all of us should take should we find ourselves in a pair of flip-flops or thong sandals with our sweaters and jeans.
Up the ante by topping the combination with a colorful scarf, and voila! You don’t look too shabby anymore.
