How to Tie a Scarf On Your Head


Hi Folks!

     So in this post we are going to focus in our head. Is unbelievable how fashion is to wear scarfs in our head. My inspiration and favorite style is from the Olsen sisters and they are often wearing headscarves and I personally find extremely charming! And this post will teach you how to successfully tie a scarf on your head.

Instructions: 
1- Begin by making sure that your hair is combed back. If you already have straight hair, you're all set. However, if you have thick, curly hair, pull it back into a low ponytail.


  • 2- Take the scarf and completely unfold it. Lay it out on a flat surface, such as a vanity table or your bed.
  • 3- The scarf should be a long rectangle. You want the scarf to appear like a long headband, and to do this you have two folding options
4-The first folding option is to fold the scarf lengthwise in half, and then in half again

5-The second folding option is to pick up an end of the unfolded scarf, and run your free hand lengthwise through, bunch up the fabric in almost an accordion pattern.

6- Once you have folded the scarf in the way that you'd like, look in the mirror and place the scarf just behind your bangs, or the frontal crown of your head, behind your ears.

7- Take the loose ends of the scarf and tie them together at the base of your neck--either in a bow, or in a double knot, leaving the ends longer and trailing down your back.

8- Take some hair pins and place them intermittently around where the scarf meets your scalp line to keep the scarf in place.

Scarf Wrap Sandals

 
      Hello!

     Why keep the scarf wrapped just around our neck???
     I was thinking these days what else could I do with my scarves... I was (like always) surfing in the internet and then I saw a cool sandal with a scarf around an ankle! Such I good idea, right guys? 
     So here I got  some photos for you folks get inspired. 

                                                           






                            Here we have a easy way to do it: 


     You know I've always seen the DIY potential in scarves, and aren't these sandals from Avec Moderation fun? Using a simple pair of sandals and silky scarves, you could easily recreate the look. While the chances of thrifting an identical pair of scarves are slim to none, you could always pick up two scarves from a fast fashion joint like H&M or cut a large scarf in two.
