Advice on how to wear a silk scarf!

Over the last few years I’ve (very generously) been gifted some gorgeous vintage Hermes scarves by my partner’s father. I have never been one for casual scarf wear but they’re too pretty not to bring into my outfits. What are some of your favorite ways to wear scarves, other than tying around your bag handle?

How do you avoid looking either 20 years older than your age and/or like you're a flight attendant?

... Read moreSilk scarves are a timeless accessory that can elevate any outfit, yet styling them can be tricky. One popular method is the headband style, where you fold the scarf and wrap it around your forehead, tying it at the back for a vintage-inspired look that can also keep your hair in place. Another effective technique is using the silk scarf as a belt, creating a unique waistline accent. Simply loop it through your belt loops and tie it at the side. For those looking to avoid an overly formal appearance, try the casual necktie look, where you loosely wrap the scarf around your neck, allowing the ends to hang freely. This relaxed approach adds flair without the stuffiness of formal styles. Finally, consider the classic handbag tie, where the silk scarf is knotted around your bag’s handle. This not only personalizes your bag but also introduces a pop of color or pattern that can complement your outfit. With so many versatile options, silk scarves can be a chic addition to your everyday style!

Wearing a scarf today is really any way you want to. The rules have all been thrown out the window. Scarfs are no longer a necessity but an accessory and accessories can be worn any way you like!!

Style a silk scarf as a chic necktie, a headband, a bag accessory, a belt, or a ponytail wrap for a polished look.
