Silk Scarves
Once
you've picked the scarf you want to wear with an outfit, particularly
if its a delicate material, you need to ask yourself, is it wrinkled?
Just as a scarf's colors, design, dimensions and texture really affect
the overall look, so would any wrinkles. Scarves made out of thicker
material may not have wrinkles very often. But scarfs that are
delicate, such as 100% silk scarves, can become wrinkled fairly easily.
Hanging them in a steamy bathroom for a little while can solve the
problem some of the time. When it doesn't, you need to iron the scarf.
In
the case of silk, you can easily damage/scorch the material, if you
aren't careful. Also, you have to make sure you have enough heat (and
it needs to be moist) coming from the iron in order to take the wrinkles
out.
This video walks you through what works really well for me.

It wasn't all that much extra work, was it? And look just how beautiful the scarf can be (as long as its draped properly too : ):
