      THE FREE SPIRIT

      Take a square scarf and fold it in half to make a triangle. Fold it in half again to make a smaller triangle if desired. Take the scarf and place it on your head with the long part across your forehead and the pointed part on the back of your head. Take the ends and pull behind your ears to tie behind your head.

      THE GRACE KELLY

      Fold your scarf in half and wrap it around your head like a hood. Think of Little Red Riding Hood or a celebrity ducking the paparazzi. The ends will be in the front. You can either tie the scarf in the front or if it is long enough you can pull one end over the other and let it hang down your back.

      THE ROSETTE

      Take a large square scarf, drape over your head, and pull the ends to one side, near your ear. Knot the ends, then twist one tail into a rope and swirl around the knot. Next, tie the end of the rosette you just formed with the other, hanging end. The rosette end may also be tucked into itself or pinned. Leave the other end hanging, if you like, or tuck it under the rosette.

    I have been a 2 time breast cancer patient and I bought my pashmina scarves in many colors that are so soft and light and perfect post chemo as head scarves over a wig or without a wig as a perfectly comfortable head covering. The owner of a site called Yours Elegantly helped me every step of the way. The pashmina scarves/shawls were $9.99 and I learnt to wear them in different styles. My favorite style was to put the scarf over my head and take the longer end and drape it over the opposite shoulder. This makes the scarf secure over the head looks stylish and shows off the beauty of the pashmina scarf and I felt cool, comfy and confident in it.Another discovery I made was that Yours Elegantly has cotton tunic tops for my post cancer surgery condition called lymphadema that leads to hand and arm swellings and so I needed a light top that had long sleeves to protect me from the sun in that
