SabinaLes scarves can be worn in multiple ways, as a headband, belt, and (our favorite) an adorable handbag accent! Just tie it loosely into a bow around one of the handles, and you’ve created your own fashion statement. Sabina has always been passionate about fashion and decided to live out her dream of designing luxury silk printed scarves. She studied marketing at The College of Staten Island, as she felt that a business degree could be a big asset in running a fashion business. Her favorite way to wear her scarves? “I constantly change the way I personally wear scarves depending on the outfit, occasion, weather and mood,” Sabina says. The inspiration for her current scarf collection stems from graphics, metal, and leather elements. We love her gorgeous designs, as they are versatile enough to be worn with faded jeans or a cocktail dress! Sabina hopes to expand her company to include bags, men’s accessories, and evolve into an online and retail presence involved with non-profit organizations.
A right bag can make an outfit take on a different attitude and change the “look” from day to night and the best accomplice in this fashion transformation is a bold graphic scarf. A silk printed scarf with a particular design can update a last season’s bag; add a rock-n-roll edge to a plain bag or make a funky bag look more elegant. Here are some scarf and bag styling ideas:
Classic look / Medium size 21” square scarf (as seen on The Today Show):
Step 1.
Place 21” medium size square scarf right (printed) side down to make a triangle shape
Step 2.
Fold a top end into the center of the longer part of the scarf (2a) and fold it again to make about 2”-3” wide scarf (2b)
Step 3.
Drape the folded scarf around both handles of a bag and tie the scarf in a simple knot
