What length for what time?

Generally, long scarfs are very easy and convenient to wear for any one because you can tie them in a whole wide variety of styles.

You should also not go picking scarfs that have been embellished with beads or flowers. The other way to tell you are wearing the wrong scarf is if it is very huge and you can cover yourself up with it like a blanket. Men scarfs, also do not have scarf pins but they can have buttons.
