Posted by Vivellefashion

Hey Loves! Hope you had a fulfilling week. I just got through my daughter’s graduation ceremony and party…phew! Do you own any summer scarves? What are your thoughts on this underused accessory?

Scarfs are a perfect way to up the ante on any look. There are more than A dozen ways to style summer scarves and win. Wear it loosely, casually, or a bit tighter for a more elegant and Sophisticated take. We don them for their cozy warmth in the colder months, and for style and as a point of interest in the warmer months. Scarfs are a must have accessory in any girls’ closet.

Scarfs are also great to spruce off an old outfit from your closet…give it some flare and a fresh new vibe, additionally, it’ll do well in the strive for sustainability by keeping one less thing from the landfill. See my previous post where I talk about sustainability in the fashion industry..

That being said, there are varieties of scarfs and wraps, including-pashminas, blanket scarfs, infinity scarfsbandanas, neckerchiefs, (like I did here), even pocket squares are invaluable in their use. I’ll focus on the summer appropriate ones here. Feel free to check out my previous posts here, here and here for ideas too. Oh, and here too! Can you tally love for scarfs is huge?

A dozen ways to style summer scarves and win (OOTD)

So today, I’m talking styling scarfs. I inadvertently styled this scarf with my look for church, a few Sundays ago. It wasn’t some plan I had meticulously hashed out or planned ahead, but simply born out of a bad hair day…errr, two weeks 😜 because I’d washed my hair, hurriedly put it up in a pony tail, due to lack of time to twist it, and didn’t take it down for, a while. In fact, I’m still sporting the same high pony tail…I tell ya, the struggle is real sometimes for naturalists. At least for this one anyways. if you follow me, you’d know that I’d committed to wearing more of my natural hair, at least this year, a total irony since I recently launched a hair extension  and Mink falsies side hustle…go figure, huh?!

Moving on…scarfs are a fashion conscious girl’s secret. They are colorful, feminine, and their versatility cannot be over stated. In this post, I used mine as a head wrap, with my hair pulled up in a high pony tail, and the scarf wrapped around it, like a crown (I had to use two scarfs to achieve this fullness). The scarf head wrap, lends a chic and polished vibe to my look, giving a nod to fashion icons of old.

About my outfit though, the top is a recent find from @tjmaxx on clearance, the bcbgmaxazria bandage skirt, the Marc Jacobs handbag are from my closet, and you’ve previously seen this peplum belt, choker, heels and loafers. The scarf was also from @tjmaxx a few years ago.
