Ways to Wear a Scarf to Amp Up Your Winter Look!

 

1. Square Blanket Scarf



It’s true, time flies by fast. Just last month, we were all over the place looking for fall fashion trends…

And now.. winter is coming (alright, that line is definitely from Game of Thrones). This square blanket scarf should go well with your winter ensemble, one of the ways to wear a scarf on head, plus it’s super easy to wear.

  1. Fold your blanket scarf in half to make a triangular shape and create a lengthier material to work on.
  2. Hold both ends of your blanket scarf and cross them behind your head, so that both ends go back around the front.
  3. Tuck the ends under the scarf and give it a fluff to get the look you like.

Wear this square blanket scarf during colder weather while hanging out or when doing chores outdoors!

 

2. The Muffler

Probably one of the most fashionable ways to tie your scarf is the muffler way. It is super simple yet very cute.

If you have a sheer and soft scarf material to work with, this trick is perfect. It’s one of the ways to wear a scarf as a top.

  1. You need to hold one end of a square scarf.
  2. Then hold the other end across.
  3. Make a knot by tying both ends twice
  4. Wear the scarf over your head with the knotted part hidden at the back of your neck.
  5. Don’t forget to fluff it nicely.

This fake knot is perfect for long scarves and great to wear with a casual outfit. With four simple steps, you get a whole new way of wearing a scarf.

  1. You simply slide your scarf over your shoulders and adjust the length so the left side of the scarf hanging in front of you is longer than the other side.
  2. Tie a knot on the side where the scarf is longer.
  3. Loosen the knot.
  4. Lastly, simply slide the other end of the scarf into the knot.
