How To Wear A Scarf

 

By Jason Taingahue
There are lots of ways to wear a scarf but each different way depends on a lot of other things as well.

First you have to think about what clothes you are wearing, when you want to know how to wear a scarf. What event am I attending? What make up am I wearing? Is it casual or formal? What color scarf? How am I wearing my hair? How much attention do I want the scarf to draw? Do I want the scarf to be an accessory that blends in with my outfit, or do I want the scarf to be the focal point of what i choose to wear? All these things need to be taken into consideration when learning how to wear a scarf. There are different types of scarves that are used through different seasons.

How to wear a woolen scarf:
The good old woolen scarf could probably be the most popular. There is the usual way of wearing a woolen scarf by draping it around your neck. This is particularly helpful in the colder months. A scarf can be hung around the neck and wrapped right around your ears and over your nose so that they are kept warm as well. Be sure to keep a little room to breath though. Some people wrap the scarf around their neck then let the rest hang in front of them, this way you can put your jacket on and the scarf keeps your chest warm as well. The woolen scarf is a great way to hide the fact that you may have been too cold to put on make up. With the woolen scarf you can get away with wearing any color you have with any outfit you have.

How to wear a chiffon scarf:
Chiffon is a see-through light material. This type of scarf is used particularly in summer and complements an outfit. It is used as an accessory and a different colored scarf can take your look from formal to sexy in seconds. So know how to wear this form of scarf well. Chiffon scarves come in plain colors and floral designs. They are elegant and should be worn as such. Draping the scarf around your arms and letting it hang down your back, is a sure way to catch someone's attention, especially if you have a backless dress on. You can wrap it around your head like a movie star as well, and the material is such that it lets your hair breath.

How to wear a cotton scarf:
Cotton scarves are used in fall and sometimes summer. They can be worn with anything and go particularly well with shorts and a t-shirt. You can use the scarf to wrap around your waist as a fashion accessory with a pair of jeans, just wrap it around you and tie it up on one side, and let the other side hang down your side. You can use it tie your hair up, add in a pair of sunglasses and this gives a classic, and very stylish, 60's look.

There is no right and no wrong way on how to wear a scarf, as everyone is different. You don't have to tie the scarf up tight, as just draping the scarf around yourself is equally as effective, especially in the warmer seasons. Scarves can look good without strangling you, and any color scarf will make a great addition to your outfit. Be sure to look at the different styles of scarves.

That is all there is to know about how to wear a scarf, so what are you waiting for..
