Oh Shawna! Scarves are easy and cute and if I can do it, you can do it! (hello- fashion challenged t-shirt & jeans gal here!!!)
I would grab short length ones and tie them sideways in a knot- it looks cute and easily dresses up an outfit. But DEFINITELY keep it out of the sun- and mederma helps too.

I say you wear an ascot. You would look marvelous!
Seriously I am also scarf challenged.
But look at these:

And I bet there are tons of scarves on Etsy. I like the loose look. Wrap it once and then let it hang.

I'm not fashionable at all (psst...remember I'm the nerd with fuzzy un-ironed hair 
) but I just wanted to say that when I was reading what your sweet hubby wrote I though the last part was gonna say "want to MAKE OUT" 
Because chicks with neck scars and neck tattoos ARE HOT!!!

First, doll, you ARE gorgeous... even your neck. (I've met Shawna, and she is about one of the most beautiful people you could ever meet.) And I think you could completely pull off the sassy scarf look! Get a few (or a few dozen) pins to jazz up the scarves. You can put the pin over the knot or instead of a knot. You will look awesome!
I've been thinking about you everyday. ((hugs))

Ohhhh look at this:

The french twist is cute!
Something else you could do for around the house is wear a bandana. Hobby Lobby has them in a million colors.

oh Shawna. I am thinking of you...
I know old navy has those gauzy scarves that are oh so pretty & probably cooler for the summer. I agree with Julie & getting some funky pins!! That would be a cool twist. I think you can totally pull it off, too, BTW.
I googled how to wear a scarf & got...

crap, I was supposed to keep my neck covered? Seriously? I did not know that. Could be why my scar is pretty noticeable. I had my surgery in July too, so it was hot and sunny. lol
Ok, on a side note ... you may notice that until your neck even starts to heal, you won't want anything touching it. It drove me nuts to have anything touch it - shirts, blankets, towels ... etc. Which made me thankful I had the surgery done when it was warmer, cause I could wear less material and not chance anything touching it.

Amanda, thanks so much for the link too, i am so gonna check out old navy, and I love the link too with all the different styles, lordy, who knew there were so many ways to wear a scarf!

(sonja, I had a feeling i wouldn't want stuff touching it too, especially at the begining... maybe i'll end up just spending lots of time indoors!)
