Hand-Painted Scarves – The Perfect Way To Express Your Individuality!

Since time immemorial, humans have used different means of expressing their individuality.  Even centuries ago, everything from unique pieces of jewelry and tattoos were used by people who were keen to express their personalities and demonstrate their social standing through their outward appearance, and things are not so very different all these years later.

In modern times, we have a whole host of ways in which we declare to the world just who we are on the inside.  Hair styles and colors, clothes, cosmetics, jewelry, piercings, tattoos and even our choice of car or the way that we decorate our home makes a statement about our unique identity.  While some prefer to express themselves in more subtle ways, others really like to push the boundaries and create an entirely individual look which affects every aspect of their appearance.

Women’s accessories have always been an extremely popular way to take an otherwise ordinary item, lift it out of the doldrums and make it entirely unique, and scarves have endured as one of the most popular.  Hugely versatile, they offer endless opportunities to express who you are in as understated or flamboyant a way as you wish.  

Although most of the famous designers have included women’s silk scarves in their collections, many of the designs are neither totally unique nor hand-painted, despite their often exorbitant prices.  In fact, in the majority of cases, rather than helping the wearer to stand out, they speak more of conformity as numbers of women all turn up to the same occasion wearing the same Burberry or Hermes scarf.  Run-of-the-mill examples bought from a department store also do little in terms of expressing your uniquely individual style and taste.

Colors, textures and designs that you find appealing rather than just trendy are all excellent for making a personal statement.  With its luxurious feel and its intensely glamorous look, silk is simply the ultimate choice of natural material for a handmade scarf and makes the wearer both look and feel elegant.  Cool in the summer and warm in the winter, it can be worn at any time of the year and for any occasion, thus making it great value for money.

Although beautiful in its own right, when silk is combined with a hand painted or hand dyed design, the effect is one of utter exclusivity and class.  Hand painted scarves are more than just a pretty design - they are a genuine piece of original art which, rather than merely being consigned to the walls can be used to adorn clothing, bags and hair and to customize otherwise plain or lackluster items.  From bold colors to the subtlest of pastels, there are designs to suit every personality and the widest range of tastes and styles, and even the shape of the silk scarf can be selected to meet a specific need or preferred method of wearing.

So, if you have had enough of following the pack and want to truly express your individuality, why not think about investing in the beauty of a unique hand-painted silk scarf?  What better way to make your mark as someone with true sophistication and style!
