How to wear a scarf in style

Scarves, like other accessories, are an important part of the modern woman's wardrobe. They help to personalize the image and attract attention. Let's figure out how to wear this irreplaceable thing in style.

How to wear a scarf correctly

Wearing scarves, like any other accessory, requires adherence to a few simple rules:

• Don't use a scarf to correct a bad image. In this case, you risk getting an even more ridiculous option.
• Remember that the scarf should successfully complement the already composed ensemble. In this case, the texture and color of the scarf should match the overall look. For example, an equally thin scarf would work for a slim-fitting top. But with a voluminous top, such an accessory does not match at all.
• If you have clothes in a neutral color, then choose a scarf in the same color scheme. Here you can play on the contrast of textures - a scarf can be fleecy, glossy or with shine.
• Choose a scarf based on your color type... A wardrobe item like this will accentuate your blooming and fresh look.
• Consider your body type when choosing a scarf. A voluminous scarf with a huge knot will look ridiculous on a fragile slender girl.
• If you are choosing an outfit for the evening, then you can diversify your monochrome look with a bright scarf in a contrasting color.
• Do not use several bright accessories in one outfit. For example, either a bright scarf or a catchy hat. Otherwise, they will compete with each other.
