Ways to Style Scarves

To begin your summer apparel travel, be on the watch for vintage scarves at your local thrift stores and classic markets. Finding inexpensive, high-quality classic vases is ridiculously easy. In addition, I advocate hunting for new ones that are handmade--there are gobs of hand-painted silk, hand-dyed cotton and artist-illustrated screenprinted scarves on Etsy that are positively drool-worthy. Once you've built up a happy collection, test out a number of the following scarf tying techniques! It's possible, even though it could be uncomfortable, and some individuals might find you pretentious for wearing something which doesn't make sense for your weather just to look cute. It might make more sense on cooler days or in case you are indoors somewhere cool.  Plus, they're fun! Mix up your morning routine and bend your sartorial imagination by finding new, unique ways to wear your own scarves, by the tried-and-true neckerchief to headbands, belts, as well as bracelets. Scarves have the added bonus of saving you from a bad hair day. If you do not have time to design (or even wash) your own tresses, just turn one of your big, square vases into a cover-all headwrap. Drape the scarf around your neck, leaving you end shorter than the other. Wrap the longer end loosely around your neck once, twice if you'd like a chunkier look or need more bundling. Allowing one end to be slightly longer than another provides a more spontaneous and natural look, but the length could be adjusted to your preference. The Sophisticate works well with winter outerwear, and is perhaps the ideal way to wear (e.g.) a lightweight linen scarf in summer time: worn under a T-shirt/blazer or T-shirt/cardigan outfit, your lightweight scarf will add that bit of baffling you'll need when an onshore breeze whips-up, or even the AC in the cafe has indoor temperatures a bit too frosty. Pure-elegance.com calls this appearance the Once Around. This style maximizes the motion impact of your scarf. There's no knot here, only a light drape around the neck that leaves you end shorter than the other. The longer end of this scarf is thrown across the front of your neck, and hangs over your opposite shoulder. If the scarf is extra long, wrap it around your neck after before putting it behind your shoulder. This the most casual and insouciant of those styles, and the only thrown-on appearance is one reason it successfully conveys action and mobility. This knot indicates moderate indifference to design, while the existence of a scarf is itself a nod to style.
