Scarves have become an important accessory for my girls and myself. I was not much into wearing them until I saw what a difference they made in the outfits my daughters wore. Some days they were the pop of color that was needed to bring their outfit to life and on other days they were the needed accessory to dress up the outfit. Scarves are a very inexpensive way to add a bit of interest to any outfit. But did you know there are more than one way to wear a scarf? Here are five ways that you can wear a scarf. I brought an extra-long scarf back in October at a local store but you can find a similar one here.
You can simply wear it wrapped around your neck. This way can also double as a wrap on chilly nights. Just drape it around your shoulders.
You can wrap it around your neck and then make a slip knot in the front.
Wrap it around your neck and criss cross it around the front and secure it with a belt. You can either use a plain belt or a fancy one, it just depends on what look you are trying to achieve. I used a simple plain brown leather belt for this.
Wear it as a vest just simply knot the back. Confused on how to do this? Don’t worry tomorrow I will show you how to make a scarf into a vest with a few simple adjustments.
Lastly you can wrap it around your neck twice. Just simply place the scarf with the edging hanging down your back and then wrap it around to achieve the look pictured below.
These are just a few ways to wear a scarf. Check back tomorrow when I show you how to make a vest out of a scarf no sewing required.
My teen and tween daughters are all about their scarves right now. I know they would appreciate the cute new look of the scarf with the belt!
