One Scarf, Tied 5 Different Ways

How To Tie A Silk Scarf 5 Ways

Silk scarves instantly add an element of glamour to any look. But that one question always remains: how do I tie it? Sabina Les, the founder of SL Designs, is a pro at wearing her gorgeous silk scarves many different ways. So I asked her to show ThinkThruFashion readers how to get the most out of their scarf purchases. With her easy steps, wearing one scarf five different ways is a cinch. And if you’re in New York for Fashion Night Out this Friday, buying these printed beauties just got 30% less expensive with the promotional code FNONY.

Here are Sabina’s tips on how and when to wear a long silk scarf…

    I like it! I only have two scarves (the long and narrow kind) and I don’t wear them nearly enough. I might try to wear one as a belt through belt loops on a safari-style jacket.

    Also, I’ve used my longer scarves as a really simple, mostly baby-proof nursing cover. Yay, that!

  2. I rather like the choker idea. Nice look. I also wear a long scarf under the collar of a jacket. It works particularly well if the scarf ends are the same lenght as the jacket itself.
