4 Easy Ways to Wrap Your Scarf for that Casual Look

scarf

Here are various ways to wear your scarves casually. Tie it in a simple knot, turn it into a European classic, let it fall freely, and make a quick toss.

Most people wear their scarf in a casual manner to make it easy and simple for them. This is also a perfect match for your casual clothes. You can add style and elegance to that everyday look with these simple steps:

Tie it in a simple knot

This is done by folding your scarf lengthwise. You can fold it to your preferred thickness. Let the ends hang from your neck then tie it into a knot. You can either fluff up your scarf to hide the knot or you can turn the knot at the side of your neck for some style.

Turn it into a European classic

Fold your scarf crosswise then let it hang from your neck. On one side is the folded end and on the other side are the loose ends. Insert the loose ends into the hole of the folded end then tighten scarf as desired. Any type of scarf will do for this style.

Let it fall freely

You can let the scarf have a free fall or hang down from the neck either in front or at your back. This is the easiest and quickest way to wear your scarf casually. Use dark colored and printed scarves for this look.

Make a quick toss

To do this, let the scarf hang down from your neck then toss one end towards your back. You can also fold the scarf lengthwise. Again, fold it into your preferred thickness. You can tighten the wrap in a manner that suits you. This is the most common way to wear a scarf. It would be best to use plain-colored scarves for this kind of look.

These are just some of the most common ways to wear your scarf. You can experiment and wear what you think is best for you. Use different colors, texture, and designs to gain variety. This would look great even if worn casually. What is great about being casual is that you get to stay in your comfort zone.

3 Ways to Wear Short Scarf for a More Fashionable Look

shortscarf

To have a fashionable look with a short scarf you can wear it as a head wear, as a garment, and as an accessory.

Scarves are fashionable trend statements. They have become functional trends for both men and women. Scarves are the most versatile accessories that come with different styles and fabrics. Short scarves are as popular as the other types of scarves. Short scarves are either within 14 to 16 inches or are below six feet. To accentuate your look with a short scarf it can be worn in three different fashionable ways.

Short scarf as a head wear

Traditionally, scarves used as head wear began with a cultural purpose. Religion has also indicated the various significance of wearing scarves as bandannas. Along the years this cultural and religious practice of wearing bandannas has been incorporated as a fashion statement. It has gained popularity most especially by women. Short scarves fit well with designs such as turban, gypsy wrap, and head bands. Always begin with a triangle and wrap it around your head when using short scarves as head wear. You could either fully keep your hair with the short scarf or pleat the folded scarf to place across the the front part of the head. Then secure to tie a knot and tuck it at the back or at the side of your head.

Short scarf as a garment

Another versatile function of this kind of scarf, is that it can also complement your look as an additional garment. It is most popular as an accent in swim suits, tube tops, and shoulder wraps. Short scarves are folded into a triangle by folding it diagonally. It is then adjusted to the preferred look that covers any bare skin. The scarves light and soft fabric texture makes it feel comfortable. This kind of scarf accent is an effective alternative for people who are uncomfortable baring too much skin when in a swimming suit. It can also work as a tube top. Fold the scarf length wise and pleat it for additional design to wrap around your bust line. It is best paired with short jeans for a trendy look. It can also be worn as a shoulder wrap for sleeveless tops.

Short scarf as an accessory

Using the scarf as an accessory is the most prominent function of a scarf as a fashion statement. It can be worn as a side-knotted or traditional belt. You can fold the scarf lengthwise and wrap it around your waist as a belt. It can also be folded as a neck wrap or as a tie. Neck wrap can be worn by folding the scarf in half and placing the middle at your neck to create a loop. Loop it around your neck to the design that you want. You could also hang the full length of the scarf around your neck and let the sides hang. The hanging side could be knotted into different styles that suites your look.

A short scarf can also be tied around a ponytail which gives a fresh and youthful look. It is the most versatile garment that could function to just about anything and could be worn anyway you want. It is a perfect medium of showing your sense of style and fashion to the world.

Bustin' from the day job plus tutorials, I'm terribly tired right now. Do apologize me girls if there aren't much I can share today, however, in this outfit, you can see how my shiny little brown scarf transformed my very simple cream sunday dress into something stunning. I wore the scarf reversed, the ribbon at the back.

So excited for the weekend. Can't wait!

When you bare both shoulders and legs, wear a scarf

I believe that in making a statement, baring shoulders and legs should come one at a time. But should you feel like wearing some spaghetti straps and denim shorts at the same time, do wear a scarf. The result is elegant.

Reuse a green dress for a green environment?

I will go a little bit off topic guys but yesterday was my boyfriend's birthday. I want to wish him again a HaPpY BiRtHdaY!



happybday

This green dress is one of my favorites. The cloth seems to be a kind of thai silk. It drapes down freely and chooses to cling on the best curves. Needless to say, it has a well-defined sexy cut.

Two years later [that was yesterday, Saturday] I found myself in the same dress but with a different shawl and different shoes. Additionally, with no make up.

Thanks to Eunice for the photos.

Thus my title, Is reusing a green dress for a green environment? I am a living testament for reusing of whatever things that I have; most especially for fashion.

So which shoes and shawl do you think fits well?

P.S. The shoes are actually dark green but they looked like black.

go leggy with scarves

If you want to wear denim shorts and still want to look elegant, put on a trendy scarf. A scarf will not only give you a trendy look, it will also accentuate your legs.
