That’s why we’re here to give you some friendly fashion advice. We bring you five easy and stylish ways to wear a scarf for a glamorous ensemble look. Let’s get on with it!
5 Easy Ways To Style Your Scarf
- The Classic Scarf Neck Wrap
Since time immemorial, woolen scarves have been used as a winter accessory to keep the neck warm. But as fashion trends have changed over the years, so has the style of wearing scarves as a neck wrap. Fashion enthusiasts have been experimenting with various styles of wearing a neck scarf - from double knots and single knots to cowl necks.
Today, we bring you a fusion between a cowl neck style and a classic low-hanging knot for styling your favourite winter scarf. First, take the silk scarf or stole, fold it lengthwise, and wrap it loosely around your neck.
You’ll get two loose ends of the winter scarf on either side with a “U”-like loop around the neck.
Now, take the loop and fold it to make it look like “8” and hold it in place.
Next, take the two loose ends of the stole scarf and thread both ends through the lower gap of the folded loop to make a knot.
Finally, adjust the scarf knot to make it more comfortable and get ready to slay!
You can choose our beige ribbed scarf or pleated green scarf to try out this scarf style to add an elegant and classy touch to your everyday, casual winter outfit. Pair the blanket scarf with neutral or dark tones to create a glam winter look that’s bound to be a head-turner.
- A DIY Trendy Scarf Poncho
Whether you are trying out a casual winter outfit or going for a more formal look, a poncho goes well with everything. And if your inner fashionista is telling you to experiment with a new style to create a trendy DIY scarf poncho using silk scarves for women, you should definitely take a look at what we have in store!
To create the DIY scarf poncho look, choose any scarf you want and wrap it around from the back so that you can hold the scarf ends together from both sides at the front.
Now, take a small ring or bangle and place it below one side of the scarf and wrap one of the loose scarf ends tightly over the bangle. Similarly, take the other loose end and wrap it over the bangle as well.
Once, you’ve wrapped both the loose ends over the bangle or ring, secure the whole thing with a rubber band to keep the bangle in place, preventing it from falling off.
Lastly, adjust the bangle and the stole scarf to set a stunning and innovative fashion statement with your brand-new DIY scarf poncho!
To create this trendy scarf poncho look, you can try out our luxury black and white long scarf. The plaid scarf comes in a classic black and white colour palette and can pair beautifully with bold and neutral-coloured outfits, including, black, white, and beige. Wear this knitted scarf over a plain white t-shirt and a pair of blue jeans to jazz up your daily casual wear.
- Scarf As A Folded Shoulder Wrap
Very few clothing accessories can match the classy glamour of a vintage shoulder wrap. But why buy a new shoulder wrap when you can simply style a plaid scarf like a trendy shoulder wrap? You can also choose a chic cashmere wrap and wear it as a shoulder wrap if you’re looking to add a bit more luxe and glamour to your outfit.
Instead of wearing a cashmere scarf like a plain shoulder wrap, we’ve added a flowery touch to the style to amp up the glamour quotient.
Take a satin knitted scarf or any other scarf of your choice and hold it lengthwise to neatly pleat one end of the scarf.
Once you are done pleating, use a rubber band to hold all the pleats together. Next, carefully hold the pleated end and wrap the shawl around your shoulders.
Now, take the loose end of the scarf and tie it together with the pleated end at the front using the same rubber band.
After neatly tying up the scarf ends together, style the tied-up part by lightly pulling it out to make it resemble a blooming flower.
Make sure to properly tie the scarf ends together to secure the DIY folded scarf-style shoulder wrap.
If you are looking for the right designer scarf to try out this trendy style, we’ve got you covered. Our Rose houndstooth printed winter scarf can be a great pick to wear as a shoulder wrap.
The stunning black and white colour scheme of the long scarf is accompanied by a splash of vibrant yellow, making the scarf effortlessly chic and stylish. Pair the scarf with your favourite black evening dress to create a stunning ensemble outfit for a special occasion.
- A Scarf Wrap Top
Wrap tops have been quite the fashion trend in recent years, so we thought why not take inspiration from a wrap top to create a new and unique style of wearing scarves? It might seem like a bit of a hassle, but creating the scarf wrap top look is a lot easier than it sounds.
Take a satin scarf or a woolen scarf and fold it lengthwise.
Next, wrap the scarf around your waist and cross it over your shoulders.
Now, tie the loose ends of the woolen scarf together behind your neck.
Lastly, pull and straighten out the scarf, so it drapes over your shoulders just like the sleeves of a wrap top.
Whether you are using a satin or woolen scarf, you can pair it with a camisole or a full-sleeved, turtle-neck t-shirt, whatever you want! And if you are looking for trendy new scarves to try out this new style, we have just the right collection for you.
You can try out our carriage luxury scarf that comes in a gorgeous colour combination of off-white, orange, and brown, so you can pair it easily with bold or neutral-coloured outfits. Style the scarf as a wrap top over a plain blue t-shirt and give your everyday casual wear a chic and glamorous touch.
- A Shawl Wrap With A Twist
We’ve all seen how a traditional shawl wrap works. While simply draping a cashmere wrap over the shoulder will always be a timeless fashion statement, we bring you a style that’s more contemporary and even a bit experimental. You can call it styling a good-old shawl wrap with a fashionable twist.
Start by simply folding the scarf lengthwise and draping it around your neck. Then, adjust both ends of the long scarf so that they have more or less the same length.
Now, it’s time for the twist! Take both ends of the silk scarf and start twisting them around each other like a rope. Continue the twisting till you reach around half of the total scarf length.
Next, take the top halves of the loose scarf ends from both sides and tie the ends together behind your neck almost like a halter-neck top.
Once the ends are all tied up, the scarf will easily stay in place. You can also tuck in the lower part of the designer scarf to give your outfit a sharp and fashionable edge.
