It’s not joke that I absolutely love scarves. I always hate packing them away once summer rolls around, but I am happy to embrace the new Spring/Summer 2008 trend of light scarves paired with a simple T-shirt as opposed to a necklace!

Stars like Kirsten Dunst and Rachel Bilson are already huge fans of this covered up trend. Below are some affordable options that I’ve piled together for your summer scarf. Be sure to have a couple handy though, just in case you get addicted and start adding them to every outfit!

“A printed silk scarf is the summer’s most versatile add on,” says Charlotte Saunders in Marie Claire’s article of January 2008,“What You’ll Be Wearing This Summer.” A silk scarf can make a drab outfit come alive and adds a touch of class.

Check out the affordable options below.
