Add custom flair or classiness to any outfit with a fashion scarf. Show it off in as many ways as possible by tying scarves in a variety of ways.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Wear your scarf as a simple over-the-shoulder wrap. Whether you pair it with an evening gown or jeans and a classy top, a scarf is in style for both day and night fashion.

  2. Step 2

    Wrap the scarf a few times around your neck, then layer with a jacket or a nice coat. The jacket flaps will hold the scarf in place.

  3. Step 3

    Tie your scarf as you would a men's tie: Wrap the scarf around the back of your neck, cross the right end over the left then in a full circle around the left piece. Bring this tail up toward your face, before tucking it through the loop you just created. Pull down and adjust the tail lengths.

  4. Step 4

    Rolling the scarf into a tube, and tie it in a knot for around the neck for a simple professional look.

  5. Step 5

    Wrap your scarf around the front of your neck and leave the tails to hang loose down your back. No knot is necessary in this flowing and easy look. This works with dresses or with the right outfit for a night on the town as it creates a classy highlight to your neck while leaving the back bare.

  6. Step 6

    Wrap your scarf around your shoulders and experiment with angles. Once you set an angle, use a nice pin to attach the sides or ends to keep the scarf in place. For example, wrap the scarf around your shoulders, overlap the fabric on one side of your chest. Pin through the edge of the outer top of the scarf through to the piece that is underneath.

  7. Step 7

    Roll or fold the scarf until you have a thin band. Slip it through your belt loops, or tie around your waist or your head for a hip look.

Tips & Warnings
  • Avoid wearing delicate scarves (made of silk or other sensitive fabrics) in rain or other precipitation.
