Accessorize with Scarves!



Scarves add a classy element to business wear and also a funky edge to denim. It just depends on the scarf and what you wear it with. You do not need a designer scarf. Yes, they are nice but a well-designed scarf with a great pattern also works well.

There are many ways to wear a scarf.

Jewelry
Scarves make a statement. If you have a thin scarf, twist it and wrap around your wrist as a bracelet. You can also do this around your ankle if you want a funky look.
Tie it around your neck to accessorize your wardrobe. This has been done for ages and the look is quite classic.

Hair Accessories
Tying your hair back in a pretty scarf is another classic look. Also, folding one and tying your hair back bandanna-style gives you a nice retro look.
Twist a longer, thin scarf and tie it around your forehead letting the ends drape from the side or down the back.

Clothing Accessories
There are endless possibilities on how to accessorize your clothing using scarves. It depends on what you wear, what type of scarf you have and the look that you want to achieve. When shopping for scarves look for varieties in fabric and buy scarves with variances in width and length.
Some scarves are heavy enough and large enough to use as a bandaeu-style top or even a sarong skirt. Variance is key when shopping.

Need ideas on how to create super looks with scarves? No problem.

Magazines are a great and useful tool. Scour the pages. You will find scarves are used a lot more than you think. That's how I got the idea for this article. I never noticed it before and then it popped out at me one day. Most of the ladies had a scarf of some sort as an accessory.
Pay close attention when watching TV. You will see a lot of female characters use scarves in unique and trendy ways.

When shopping or just out on the town, pay attention to what other ladies are wearing. You might see something truly unique. Ask them how they did it.
Search the Internet fashion and beauty sites. You can also try searching for "unique ways to wear a scarf".

With all the possibilities you have you should find a way that speaks your style. Be fun and creative and make it your own.
