Fashion help needed
Women's suit - "olive" pants and jacket and a white shirt. The suit also can with a scarf. What the heck do I do with that? Outside of the jacket? Inside? Help!

2. Shirt is a long sleeve button down.
The scarf is about 5 ft long and 6-8 inches wide.

You can also just wear the scarf draped in the collar of your jacket.

3. Personally I'm not
fond of scarves and rarely wear them. Can you change the white blouse to something multi-colored that picks up the "olive" color in pant/jacket? May look a little more interesting. Or . . . does the jacket have a pocket? Nice place for a funky scarf. Or if you can't ditch the white blouse, how about some multi-colored jewelry, big and bold.

Otherwise, here's some scarf tying techniques.
