Long Scarf - How You Wear It

Scarves have many purposes. Not only are they used because they are very practical and definitely efficient, they are also very fashionable to wear as well. With so many kinds of scarves to choose from, any woman could surely find something that would fit her own personal style and taste. One scarf in particular, the long scarf, is a really great way to play with its versatility and experiment with it by mixing and matching.

A neck scarf is called as such because you do not just drape a scarf around your shoulder but you actually tie it around your neck and let it hang loose or sometimes even making a knot to keep it stylishly short and chic. The only problem with long neck scarves is how you actually wear them. Unlike shorter ones, a long scarf can actually become quite a hassle if you do not know how to style it well and then its length would just be in the way.

Here are some of the ways on how you can wear your long neck scarves.

The first way is by keeping it long. This is a really interesting way of wearing it especially when you are wearing a short dress or a pair of shorts. Using a long scarf instead of a regular-sized one actually balances out the whole outfit. It keeps things clean and casual. Sporting a mini-dress might be a little bit too revealing but if you accessorize and drape something long around your shoulders, it will somehow be able to tone down the sexiness of your dress.

Layering is another great way to help you dress better. With layering, you can play with volume, different lengths and dimensions of clothes. For example, you can wear a flowy dress and then you wear a cute vest over it. To add a little more extra oomph, you can add a neck scarf. In this way, you can have a lush volume that would look better and chicer to look at. You can also opt for a long scarf if you want more length and dimension added to your complete look.

A long scarf can also be the perfect beach cover-up. You can definitely wear it over your swimsuit and wrap it around yourself while you are sunbathing or strolling around and enjoying the scenic view of the beach. If you are worrying about how it cannot completely do its job as a cover-up, there is no need because its length can definitely make it work. You can wear it as a skirt or a sarong. You can do this by tying it on your waist and adjust it in such a way that it would look like a sarong. You can also wear it as a sexy tube top if you want to channel a sort of boho look with a hot twist. You can wrap it around your upper body and then tie it at the back or whatever style you want, perhaps as a halter top too. Then you just wear a long skirt with it. Simple but super chic!
