I’m not really one to keep up with trends, I tend to stick more with what I feel comfortable wearing. I think its best that you like what you look like the most, before anybody else.
Something that I’ve always loved, and am particularly loving right now are silk scarves. They’ve been around for a very long time and are so classic and glamorous. Plus, there are a million styles and color options. So much variety.
And while I personally would wear a scarf this way, like my fashion idol Grace Kelly, I'll talk about a few more ideas too.
If the head scarf isn’t your style, here are 3 classic ways to style the ever lasting silk scarf.
Around your Neck
Endless options here. This is the most classic, as well as most popular way to style a scarf. With the casual loose tie, handkerchief style, knotted, wrapped, I could go on. There are just a bevy of ways and styling options.
On your Bag
Very Gossip Girl inspired, only you don’t have to have a Birkin bag in this case. Tying a bright silk scarf on your bag is ‘easy accessorizing 101’. You can use your scarf to add a certain color pop to your full look, or even as a way to cover a nasty scratch on your favorite leather satchel.
In your Hair
Not as daring as the ‘Grace Kelly’ (see above), but just as effective. I love the ‘silk scarf as a hair accessory thing. A perfect combination of modern meets old Hollywood. Best part is, any hair color, texture, or length works here!
Tie your hair up in a bun, and add a silk scarf to give the appearance that it took lots of effort (totally didn’t) or wear your hair down, and tie your scarf like a headband- leaving the bow you tied exposed. Or, try a turban style; always cute and cool.
Are there any other ways to style a silk scarf according to you? Do let me know here, or tag me a picture of you sporting one on instagram @thirdworldstyle
