Introduction
The winter season is here, and with it comes one of the most important accessories for any outfit: a scarf. Wearing a scarf can be intimidating to style it at first because there are so many ways to style it, but don't worry! We've got you covered with 6 of our favorite ways to wear a scarf this season.
1. Wear it around your neck and shoulders
Here are some tips on how to wear your winter scarf in the cold months:
-
Wear it around your neck and shoulders
-
Tie it in a knot at the front if its a thinner fabric
-
Wrap it around yourself neck, depending on how big the scarf is and how long you want to make your look
2. Wear your scarf as a hood
-
Wrap the scarf around your head, then tie it in a knot. It's a great way to add some warmth on top of your ears and keep your neck warm.
-
Wear it over a hat or under a hat for extra warmth.
-
Wear as a hooded cardigan if you want to go all out!
3. Cozy up in a scarf wrap shawl
A scarf wrap shawl is a versatile piece that can be worn in three different ways:
-
Wrap it around your shoulders.
-
Woven or knit scarves are perfect for this, as they have a bit of weight to them and will stay put when you wrap them over your shoulders. A chunky knit yarn like wool or soft cashmere scarf also works well, because it has enough texture to keep the fabric from slipping into an unflattering crevice between your shoulder blades.
-
Wear it as an infinity scarf (or cowl). If you're new to infinity scarves/cowls, no worries! It's just like tying a regular old knot with one end of the scarf and tucking in the other end so that there's no loose end flapping around—except this time you'll be doing it at each corner instead of just one spot. To make sure everything stays in place when wearing this style, use something lightweight and soft against your neck such as cashmere or angora wool instead of cotton or acrylic fibers, which tend not only snag easily but also aren't very breathable during exercise activities outdoors (which is why we recommend against using cotton t-shirts!). Note: If using cashmere or angora would cause issues with itching due to allergies then try substituting another type of natural material such as hemp instead!
4. Tie a scarf over your coat collar
A scarf that hangs loosely around your neck is a great way to add some flair to what you’re wearing. If you have long hair, consider tying your scarf into an easy knot and letting it hang down like a cape. A tighter knot will keep the scarf in place but also look nice when worn with open collars (like in the picture above). The other option here is to tuck both ends of the scarf into itself, creating a neat little package around your neck.
5. Use it as an accessory for your bag
You can also use your scarf to add some flair to your bag.
-
Keep it simple and wrap the scarf around your handbag. For a more elegant look, try tying a bow at the top of the bag!
-
If you're looking for an easy way to carry both your purse and groceries, try using one end of the scarf as a handle for a bulky bag.
-
Or, if you have multiple bags that need protecting from winter weather (like I do), tie them all together with some extra scarves for added warmth!
6. Wrap it as a stylish top
If you're traveling, the scarf is a perfect accessory. It will keep you warm on a chilly night and keep your neck from getting sunburned. You can also use it as a makeshift blanket for naps. Traveling in warmer countries? A scarf can protect your shoulders from the sun's rays while still keeping cool.
A scarf is much more than just an accessory: it can also be used as a towel, bed sheet, tablecloth or even an impromptu hammock!
