How to make a top from a scarf

Articles • DIY • Fashion Tutorials

1

Take the scarf and lie it face down. Then fold back the top corner a quarter.

2

Hold the scarf by the corners of this fold and hang around your neck. Secure these two corners with a safety pin.

3

Let the scarf hang down naturally and then take hold of the sides at the height of your waist. Hold the two sides together around your waist and safety pin in place.

4

Use the length of ribbon wrap around your waist and conceal the safety pin with a bow. Pull the front of the scarf a little so that there is a excess of scarf above the ribbon. This will create a great shape.

Here is another selection of great scarves to create this look with…

Hermes, Hermes, Temps des Reves, Temps des Reves, Temps des Reves, D&G, Oasis, Barbour, ASOS, Front Row Society, Emma Cook and Lock and Key.

Shop

The greatest and best of cookery shops can be found in Paris and this is the greatest of all.

E.Dehilerin

It’s merchandise reaches all the way to the ceiling, stocked to the brim and balanced meticulously on long shelves, row by row by row.

If you have ever met a kitchen utensil you looked at with awe and wonder, struggling to imagine what possible purpose it could have been crafted for, this is the home of them all.

Beautiful copper pans I drool over fill the windows and walls inside the store.

All the staff are male, speak beautiful english, but are excessively french. Enjoy!

Pasta with Olives and Tuna

Fish • Savoury

This recipe is based on something my mother used to make for me when I was a child. I can remember vividly siting on the back door steps of our childhood home, with all the dachshunds around us, eating this dish out of Chinese bowls. It's yummy and even people who aren't big fish eaters love it. Another great plus of this recipe is that it can normally be thrown together with things that are hiding in your pantry cupboard.

Sauté the Onions and Garlic until soft and a little brown on the edges.
Add the Capers, all the Olives and stir. After a few minutes add the strained tuna and mix. Leave on a low heat to infuse with the flavours while you cook your pasta.
Place your pasta is boiling water to cook, with a good pinch of Salt and a tsp of Olive Oil.
Remove the tuna olive mix from the heat and stir in the chopped Parsley and lots of Salt and Pepper.
Strain the Pasta, serve with the tuna olive mix on top and lots of Parmesan.
