Become A FanHow To Wear Fashion ScarvesEvery woman has at least a scarf or two lying around her
home, just begging to be worn. While some women seem to
flawlessly be able to toss and tie a scarf around their
necks, there are some of us who are absolutely clueless
and cannot seem to properly tie up a scarf if our life
depended on it.
Fashion scarves are all the rage this season, and for a
good reason. Tossing on a fashion scarf can turn even the
most boring of outfits into a fantastic fashion statement.
You can also find fashion scarves in a variety of patterns,
styles, lengths and materials, so you can add a scarf to
almost any piece of clothing you wear.
TIP: Did you know that fashion scarves can be worn in more places than just your neck? Try wearing a scarf as a shawl, around your head, or even around your waist as a belt. A fashion scarf around the waist will shrink in that waist and help create a trimmer appearance.
How to Tie a Fashion Scarf Around your NeckIf you want to add a bit more pizzazz to your outfit and
don't care to have your scarf simply thrown around our
neck, try using different sized scarves to create
different appearances. Some women like to add a bit of
sophistication and style by tying a scarf around their
neck in a choker-style. To create this look, choose a
smaller square scarf. Fold it two to three times, and wrap
it around your neck. Make a small knot, and then turn the
knot slightly to either the left side or the right side.
To add a bit more style, you can add a scarf pin, a brooch,
or a ring. Scarf clips and shell scarf holders are also
quite popular.
If you prefer longer scarves, take a long oblong fashion
scarf and hold it across the front of your neck. Then,
bring one end around to fall down the front right hand
side of your body. Bring the other end around your neck so
that it falls down to the left side. This will give you a
light, airy look and is perfect for those who are looking
to add a bit of a more personalized and fashionable touch
to their spring and summer outfits.
You can also choose to take one of these longer scarves
and to have it simply drape over the front of your body
for a more dramatic look.
Winter cashmere scarves are perfect for those chilly days.
If worn properly, you can look both fashionable and keep
warm at the same time! Take your cashmere scarf and fold
it in half. Position the scarf around your neck so that
the two ends fall on one side of your body, and then fold
the scarf on the other side. Take the two loose ends and
slip them right through the fold that you have created in
the scarf. Pull the two ends to help tighten the scarf
around your neck.
TIP: To really keep warm in the wintertime, you can also
tuck those loose ends right into the front of your jacket.
