How to wear scarves in winter
What's the story
Scarves are the most versatile and essential accessory for winter. They not only keep you warm but also add a dash of style to any outfit. Be it a casual day out or a formal event, the right scarf can amp up your look in no time. Here are five stylish ways to wear scarves this winter, each offering a unique take on this timeless accessory.
Tip 1
The classic loop
The classic loop is one of the easiest ways to wear a scarf. Simply drape the scarf around your neck, cross one end over the other, and pull it through the loop created by crossing them. This style is perfect for those chilly days when you want to stay warm without compromising on style. It works well with both long and short scarves, making it versatile for different looks.
Tip 2
The French twist
The French twist adds a sophisticated touch to your winter attire. Start by folding the scarf in half lengthwise and place it around your neck with the ends hanging in front. Take the two ends and twist them around each other a couple of times before bringing them back to the front and tying them in a knot or bow. This elegant style works best with lighter fabrics.
Tip 3
The infinity scarf style
An infinity scarf is basically a looped scarf that can be worn in different ways for added warmth and style. Simply put it over your head like a necklace, and let it fall around your neck twice or thrice for added volume and coziness. This style is ideal for layering under coats or jackets, while giving you that chic look.
Tip 4
The shoulder wrap
For those who want extra coverage without wearing bulky layers, try draping a large rectangular scarf over your shoulders like a wrap or shawl. Secure it with a brooch or pin if desired, to keep it in place while adding an elegant touch to any outfit—perfect for indoor events where temperatures may vary.
Tip 5
The headscarf chic
Headscarves are back in vogue this winter season. They add flair and functionality by keeping hair protected from harsh weather conditions at the same time. They keep you warm around the ears area too! Fold a square-shaped scarf diagonally, then tie it around your head, securing under chin for a secure fit. This style looks particularly good when paired with oversized sunglasses, giving off a vintage vibe effortlessly.
