Fashion Frenzy and Fuzzy

It is a common complaint among both men and women of the generations past. "Women appear to have discarded or lost any vestiges of femininity." Although this may seem to be an over statement, it is true there are women out there who look more masculine or completely androgynous creating gender confusion. While fashion is all about individuality and personal choice, sometimes it does seem a pity the gender lines are becoming so blurred, losing or even disowning why being feminine is special and oh so unique.

It is understandable that certain aspects of the working world seem to push women into adapting a more masculine approach. It is often believed if you look, think and behave like a man does, it will help you succeed more easily in male-dominated or controlled fields. This ignores the reality of women being women. It deprecates or undermines the right of women to be intelligent and capable while remaining feminine.


How we do our hair, our make-up, our clothing and our accessories declare our feminine nature. Yet, wearing frilly outfits is not always the answer. Turning a masculine outfit or, in fact, anything from business garb to denims into an acceptable feminine outfit need not be either difficult or expensive. In fact, an extremely effective and affordable solution involves turning to silk scarves and shawls.
Silk shawls and scarves are a great and elegant option. Created with unique designs from 100% unadulterated silk, they provide many options and opportunities. Highly versatile, featuring a wide variety of colors and designs, they clearly indicate quality and the femininity of the wearer. Wearing these lives no doubt about the woman being a woman.

For those who never wear make-up, a superb hand painted silk scarf can still highlight the right features. Drape one across the shoulders and/or around the neck to accentuate the eyes, a flawless complexion or an elegant neck. Wear it lower, around the hips or waist and a lengthy silk scarf immediately draws the eye to the shape of a woman. If you tie it in your hair, it serves to accentuate the color and style.

Women should not abandon their femininity. They should celebrate it. Rather than conceal it flaunt it. A remarkable hand dyed silk scarf or hand painted shawl completes any look, proving to all a woman can have it all: intelligence, skill, talent and female beauty.
