Who said scarves aren’t a fashion necessity? After all, it was a beautiful, turquoise chiffon scarf that kick started Rebecca’s happening life in the movie ‘Confessions of a Shopaholic’. These beautiful accessories in various fabrics from silk to chiffon to wool knit material are surely a necessity in any girl’s wardrobe.
Despite its aesthetic appeal, to many the scarf is just a piece of fabric, and they may be clueless as to how to wear it. So let’s help these gals out with various fun, fashionable and easy ways of wearing scarves.
-
Hang It Over Your Neck
This is the easiest and simplest way to wear a scarf. Just wear it over your neck and let the beautiful fabric do the job. It looks really nice with long shrugs as the loose fabric of the shrug and the scarf sway together.
-
Tie The European Knot
A very popular style, the European knot for scarves makes anyone look really trendy. To create this style, fold your scarf in half, then out it around your neck with the looped pat hanging at one side and the ends of the scarf at the other. Then put both the ends through the loop and adjust according to your preference.
-
Drape It Dramatically
This is easy to create, and looks very casually chic. Just hang over your scarf along your neck. Bring one end of the scarf around your neck. Repeat with the other end. Voila, it’s as easy as that!
-
Do It Like A Cowgirl
This is a really hot look and works best with a rough, cowgirl look. You’ll need a square-shaped scarf for this, which you’ll have to fold diagonally to make a triangle out of it. Put the triangle potion in front and the corners of the triangle at the back. Then drape the ends round your neck, bringing them to the front.
-
Wear It As A Belt
Who said a scarf’s only place is around the neck? Wearing a scarf like a belt really funks up an outfit and makes you look so glamorous. Adjust the width of the scarf as per your likeness, and tie it around your waist with a boxy shirt or fitted dress. Bring the knot in front or the side and let the ends hang for a cute, feminine look.
-
Put It On Accessories
You can go as creative as you want with scarves, so much so that you can make a statement without even wearing it yourself. Tie it on your bag handle, or wrap the scarf around the handle. You can also wrap it around a sun hat.

Make It A Sarong
Drape a light and wide scarf around your waist to make a sarong, and make everyone on the beach go ooh-lala! Or, you can just use it as a sarong on your jeans for a carefree, hippie look.
