Already had your fill of wool scarves? Even girls in the deep south have had to wrap themselves up to keep warm during the cold snap of the past few weeks.

What about wearing a scarf as you would a necklace? Tie it differently or buy a new scarf that will work with sweaters now and tees later. Lighter weight scarves in silk, sheer and gauzy cashmere or wool or combinations of woven cottons will twist and cowl and drape to suit your mood. I chose the scarves below because they offer color, texture and pattern but they also tap into key spring trends so they'll have staying power in your wardrobe. I also love the way they are tied. Good ideas.
1. Self explanatory way to tap into the ongoing mania for all things ruffles. Look for lighter weight versions or go for white - one of THE colors for spring/summer and you can max out the wear until the last chilly days of spring. Loop it at your neck to add texture and 'current' to an outfit in one stroke. bloomingdales.com.
2. Not only a great combo of a colorful and timeless paisley print but this silk beauty is tied in an easy cowl that fills in as necklace cum scarf. Dandy as a head scarf to disguise filthy hair days. anthropologie.com
3.The Americana theme continues for spring/summer and that means checks and plaids all over the place. I like the color balance of this style. Wear it now with a gray sweater knowing how great it will look with an easy sweatshirt top, any tee and cardy combo, or spring's number one jacket - anything utility/military in khaki. bloomingdales.com.
4. Pattern mixing and a mash-up of ethnic prints was seen all over the spring runways. This boho deluxe number will work all year. Want less yellow and more russett and navy for now?
Twist your scarf up like a twizzler.
Hold the ends of the scarf one in each hand.
Twist it up tightly and wrap it around your neck placing the ends to the back and then bringing them around to the front.
Tie the ends to off to one side.
