Vintage Icy - Take on a tie

Originally published 23rd February 2007

Victoria Beckham, from the Sydney Morning Herald, 19/02/2007I often wear a scarf as a tie in winter with a close fitted vest. The feminine scarf with a masculine knot provides an interesting contrast, as well as the masculine vest with a feminine cut.

However, I love this look as an alternative to a skinny tie. It gives the impression of a tie but with a really interesting point of difference in its width. The length is also important, not too short, but not flapping over her bust either.

The look would be absolutely perfect if her collar was exactly matched to the width of the tie, and her shirt wasn’t pulling.

Hey Mimi, thanks so much for visiting. I'm rather partial to Victoria's style myself. I know this look is from a while ago, but I still think it's a great idea.
