4 Fresh Ways to Style your Silk Scarf

A silk scarf has long been a staple accessory in a woman’s armoire and chances are if you’re reading this, you have one or two stashed away somewhere. But even if we all own one it’s not an item women tend to rock all too often. Whether they are intimidated by its overtly ladylike look or not sure how to incorporate it into their outfit, this fickle fabric tends to  remain unworn.

It’s time to whip your silk scarf out and learn to tie down your outfit.

Posh Parisians

Loosely wrapping a silk scarf around your neck can look sloppy, the silky material constantly sliding down and ending up lopsided. Take a cue from the women who always look polished – the Parisians– and style your scarf tautly around your neck. Dress it up with a fit and flare dress and high-heeled, ankle-strap sandals.

Cool Cowgirls

Is ladylike not your look? No fear–you can still pull off a sophisticated scarf even if your look is more laid back. If your idea of a Sunday is more kickin’ up your boots than sitting down for brunch, then pull inspiration from classic cowgirl style with your silk handkerchief worn country style. First fold your scarf in half to create a triangle, roll it a few times, and tie two corners loosely behind your neck. Wear it with a button-down denim skirt, t-shirt and a jean jacket.

City Style

Some women’s hesitation to the scarf, has less to do with not knowing how to style it and more to do with feeling uncomfortable wearing it. Tight, itchy and irritating, it’s true that sensitive necks find this style uncomfortable, but there are other ways to wear your scarf. For a stylish approach to this chic scarf, look to the busy working women who rule cities like New York and LA. Fold a small silk square into a band and wrap it around your wrist for a cool take on a bracelet. Tie a longer scarf onto your everyday handbag for  a colorful touch.

Vintage Vixens

No time to wrestle with your hair in the morning? Let a silk scarf come to your rescue. Channel your inner vintage vixen when you fashion yourself a high bun and wrap a silk scarf around your head. To achieve this look, first fold your scarf in half then starting from the point opposite your fold, begin to fold your scarf into a long band. Tie a knot at the top of your head, and voila! Finish the look with a sophisticated knit crop top and high waisted culottes.

With more than one way to wear a silk scarf, let this staple accessory be your go-to for pulling together your look.
