Fun Ways To Tie Your Scarf

  

I own 49 scarves. I'm serious.  I just counted as I sat down to write this post and I have 49 scarves hanging on the inside of my closet door. It doesn't matter if it is fall, winter or spring - I'm wearing them. With skirts, sweaters, tank tops, or jeans. They are my favorite accessory and easily multiply the ensembles I can put together from my wardrobe. 

 

So, I thought I'd share some of my favorite ways to sport a scarf.  The picture above has a scarf tied in a bow.  I don't wear this one too often, but isn't it just adorable?! To create this look, drape the scarf over the back of your neck slightly off center.  Fold the shorter side into thirds towards your neck, and loop the other side over it from underneath. Pull down to create the center of the bow.

 

Some of my other favorites: 

 

I call this "The Twist" - Fold the scarf in half and then drape over the back of your neck. Pull one of the loose ends through the loop. Then, twist the loop and pull the other loose end through the smaller loop you just made.

Pair with a belt!

Create drama! Center a large scarf around the front of your neck, cross in the back, tie in the front, and tuck underneath.



For a square-shaped scarf: Fold into a triangle, center at the front of your neck, and cross behind. OR you can keep in a triangle, drape over the back of your neck and loosely tie in the front. 



Use a thin scarf as a fun belt!

 

Switch up the way you wear your infinity scarf! Drape loosely OR twist the two layers around one another for a tighter look.

 

Pair two scarves together! My husband works in the University of Northern Iowa Athletics office.  Instead of purchasing a purple and gold scarf to cheer on the Panthers, I just use a yellow infinity scarf and weave one of my purple scarves through it.

 

 

Keep it simple and just tie both ends into a knot.

 

Just a few more of my other favorites. Notice that I am wearing the same shirt in all of these pictures, but have put together so many different looks - makes it easy to justify having so many scarves! (or so I tell my husband)
