Ever since I got back from Paris I’ve been obsessed with scarves. They’re the number one accessory for French girls. I already did a video on 12 ways to tie a silk scarf. So today I wanted to show some outfit ideas using a longer wrap scarf. I especially like long scarves for travel. They’re great to use as a wrap on the plane. They’re easy to pack and to store in your purse when it starts to get warm. And they can add a fun pop of color if you go for a summery print like my lemon scarf. I don’t know about you but it makes me crave a trip to Italy!

scarf for Day

During the day, I usually wear longer scarves with tees. You can wear them with a solid t-shirt, or mix prints like I did with my striped tee. I went with white skinny jeans but if you’re scared of spilling while you travel (I usually keep a Tide pen in my purse) a pair of blue denim works equally as well. Throw on some espadrille flats and you’re good to walk all day!

scarf for Night

For night, I simply swapped my tee for my fave cami and belted my scarf to make it look like a top. It’s a great trick to use if you don’t have too much room in your suitcase while traveling. I kept the same bag and just added some chunky heels and statement earrings to dress up the look a bit more for dinner.

I hope these two ideas help you if you’re planning what to pack for a summer vacation… or if you just want to spruce up your wardrobe at home!
