Styling a Murfee

Remember back in May (does that seem like a lifetime ago to anyone else?!) when I posted about a graduation wishlist? Well, since then I have acquired several of the items on the list. The most recent acquisition being a Lilly Pulitzer Murfee from the Lilly Pulitzer Endless Summer Sale (the FB drama from that gave me quite the Tuesday night entertainment). Lilly Pulitzer needs to create a @LillyPulitzerPRGirl Twitter handle so she can teach us "new" PR gals how she handled the situation "behind the scenes"!!!

Well, I ended up scoring a Callie skirt for cCm on the actual Lilly site, but I also checked out In The Pink and ordered a Murfee for myself! It hasn't arrived yet but I am patiently awaiting a visit from the UPS man!! I know many of you own a Murfee scarf (or several) already so share how you wear yours! Here are some of the ways I plan on wearing my Murfee:

I got the Skye Blue Conched Out Murfee and think it will be a great transition piece.

I think the trick with the Murfee is to keep your outfit simple. Let the Murfee do the talking. Pair it with simple jersey knit dresses, boyfriend denim, button down shirts, or dress it up while at work. I also think it will pair well with several of my quilted jackets come cooler weather! How are you wearing your Murfee and what did you score or what did you miss out on at the Lilly sale?! Have a fabulous day!

Fall Essentials Part 1: The Murfee Scarf

For the next week or so, I thought it'd be fun to post back to school wardrobe essentials and other essentials. I'll do an item or two a day to prepare every preppy, put-together student out there! If you'd like to share an item that you think is necessary, feel free to e-mail me at SummerWind41490@gmail.com and I can add it to the list!

First on the list is the Murfee scarf.

At $118, I consider this more of an investment piece. This scarf should be worn whenever you get the chance.

There is so much you can do with this scarf. Wear it with just about anything and it will complete your outfit. I love it with a plain oxford and black denim and black boots. The scarf finishes the entire outfit with a bright punch. Dress down a neutral cocktail dress. Don't only wear your cocktail dresses just once! For a more casual occasion, try pairing one of your already worn cocktail dresses with a murfee for a less dressy feel. For a casual, warm fall day, throw on a cable sweater, khaki shorts, boat shoes, and a murfee and you are all set! It's a classic, comfortable outfit and the murfee is the show-off piece! When it gets to be coat season, use the murfee just like you would any other winter scarf! Wear it daily to brighten up any of your winter coats and jackets!
How do you wear your murfee? Which pattern do you own? Have a fabulous day!
