Article: Cooler weather is scarf weather. A Burberry scarf is best matched with clothes you would wear in cooler weather, like jackets and sweaters. As such, this wardrobe addition will usually see the most action during autumn and winter, with a few appearances in the spring, as well.  When wearing a coat or jacket, opt for a more stylish variety than a casual type. Trench coats, pea coats, leather jackets, blazers, and sports jackets are all fair game. A Burberry scarf, with all its class, tends to look better with styles like these than with fluffy down ski coats, though. You can wear a Burberry scarf without donning a coat or jacket, but keep in mind that your outfit should still look appropriate for cooler weather. You can work with both short and long sleeves, but long pants or long leggings typically work better visually than shorts, capri pants, or short skirts. Since most Burberry scarves have a luxurious appearance and an interesting print, it generally works best if you avoid wearing other prints or accessories that might compete for attention. When too many separate components of an outfit stand out, they can clash.  Wearing a bold print scarf with a bold print blouse, for instance, might create an ensemble that is far too busy to please the average eye. Similarly, your accessories should work with the scarf, not against it. A simple yet stylish hat will usually work great, as will a classy pair of boots If you opt for jewelry, position the bling away from your scarf. Bracelets and rings work better than earrings, but earrings still work better than necklaces. Tuck the scarf beneath a coat or jacket, hiding most of it underneath the other piece. If the color or print of the scarf stands out well enough, you can add a chic yet subtle bit of flair to otherwise drab-colored outerwear. The way you wear your jacket and the way you tie your scarf can change the nature of this highlight. On days when you feel like leaving your jacket open, tie your scarf in a way that allows the ends to drape down over your front, thereby allowing more of the pattern to show through. On chillier days when you need to keep your coat buttoned up, tie your scarf in a way that keeps the majority of material at the neck. Even though it's best to avoid wearing a bold Burberry scarf with other bold prints, there are ways for you to mix patterns to create greater visual interest. Typically, it can be done if one or both patterns are somewhat subdued.  Pinstripes are a famously subtle pattern and can be paired with other patterns more easily than most. Consider wearing a pinstripe shirt or jacket with a classic checkered Burberry scarf.  If you're feeling a little bolder, you could even throw on a floral print scarf with your pinstriped jacket. Burberry scarves made from luxurious materials like cashmere and silk are easy to wear without outerwear. When you choose to wear your scarf in this manner, make sure to coordinate the colors and patterns with those of your entire outfit.  Cashmere and silk scarves are easy to pair with business attire or chic daytime weekend wear. You can match casual materials, like linen and wool blends, with your outfit in a similar manner, but they tend to work best with outfits that are well arranged yet still fairly casual. A sweater paired with dark jeans might work well for these varieties, for example. Another way to create visual interest when wearing a Burberry scarf is to pair together different materials with different textures. To prevent the ensemble from looking too loud or outrageous, though, it is best to do this when you are working with solids or subtle prints.  For instance, try wearing a smooth cashmere scarf with a stiff wool coat, or a wool blend scarf with a cashmere sweater. You can also mix masculine and feminine elements. Try throwing a silk or cashmere scarf over a leather jacket. You can wear a Burberry scarf with a dressy outfit, but you can also wear one with a fairly casual—yet well put together—outfit. In fact, the same scarf will usually work with both types of apparel. If you have a black checkered Burberry scarf, you can wear it with a pea coat and pinstripe dress pants one day, then wear it with a fitted t-shirt and black jeans the next day. The day after that, you could wear it over a sweater with skinny blue jeans.

Article: If you only have one Lladro piece to sell, extensive research won't be necessary. On the other hand, if you have a large collection of pieces to sell, you should probably do some research regarding the various finishes and trademarks used for certain Lladro pieces. Focus your research on information that will allow you to verify the authenticity of each piece. For instance, most Lladro pieces are marked with the company's bellflower trademark, but some older pieces may not have it. Get as much detail as possible. At minimum, you should know the piece number and name of the piece.  If you still have the original packaging, both the piece number and name should be on it. In rare instances, this information may also be printed on the base of the piece. When possible, you should also find out the date the piece was originally issued and, when appropriate, the date it was retired. Identify the sculptor, too. Anyone who wants to sell a large volume of Lladro porcelain should invest in a recent edition of an identification and price guide.  Find the most recent guide possible and look for one focused in your native currency. For instance, if you live in the United States, choose a guide that lists each value in U.S. dollars. If possible, choose an edition that is only one or two years old. Information will be too outdated in any version older than that. A catalog of active Lladro pieces can be found on the company's official website. If the piece you want to sell is part of an active collection, the current retail price of that piece should be available through the Lladro catalog. You can also find out other information, like issue date or product specifics, via the catalog. "Value" is a somewhat subjective term. You'll need to research the various listed values for a specific piece and determine the true sale value through comparison.  Retail value refers to the price an official retailer would charge for a piece. Replacement value refers to the amount of money a piece can be insured for. Auction value refers to the amount of money you should theoretically be able to sell the piece for at an auction. The price you can sell an item for will usually come closest to auction value, but it can still be a little above or below this value. Keep in mind that as an individual seller, you will not be able to sell a piece for as much money as an authorized seller might.

Do some basic research on Lladro. Know the details of each piece you plan to sell. Invest in a collector's guide. Look through the current catalog. Search retail and auction websites to determine the current price.
