Which would you prefer? A scarf or a necklace?  (I have a bet with a co-worker, so please at least a few people respond!) |

Scarf. Jewelry is personal to me.

Honestly neither from a coworker.
But if I had to choose, probably jewelry.

Necklace - I have about 30 scarfs in my dresser that I never wear.

Thanks! I actually meant to wear, not to get as a gift.

Depends on the outfit, if I have a suit with a matching scarf I will wear it.
My jewelry is low key classic, pearls, small gemstone necklaces (birthstones or sapphires). Those "statement" necklaces look gaudy to me and ones I have tried on feel very uncomfortable, plus I'm not willing to pay $$ for a necklace that only goes with a few outfits.
I have been trying to add a few more scarves into the wardrobe as I like the look and warmth. Finding what I consider pretty prints is the issue. Plus I tend to fidget with it too much during the day.

Oh... well just for a general question as far as wearing...
It depends. LOL ROFL
I wear a few pieces of jewelry - mostly handcrafted necklaces made by a friend. I find rights and bracelets to be irritating when I type.
I wear scarves on occasion, but not all that often.

Whether I wear a scarf or a necklace depends upon the outfit. I wear suits or dresses to work. Necklaces go very well with the latter. I tend to choose classic pieces, such as a string of pearls, or very modern almost industrial-looking pieces. The odd bit of sparkle is fine, but I wouldn't wear anything too sparkly during the daytime. I prefer a minimal amount of jewellery and absolutely no jangly bracelets. Ideally, jewellery should complement and enhance an outfit, rather than preceding it into a room, and is an expression of the wearer's personality.
At my business college, which I attended about a hundred years ago, we had a strong "finishing-school" element. We had classes on personal presentation - clothes, makeup, deportment, business etiquette and so on. I still maintain some of the principles we were taught, hence the "ban" on jangly bracelets.
