How to wear a scarf (7 styles)

Here's another how-to blog post. My first how-to was about making a terrarium. Hope they help, somehow :D

At least I came up with 7 ways/styles. I am aware of many people out there who have shown you how to wear a scarf and I just wanted to join the club ;)) I was also pretty bored last night!

Well, honestly, I just got a new blazer and have been in the mood to wear a scarf since I got back from Semarang because my brother bought one from NatGeo -African production- and I thought it was so cool. And, it is the wet season this time of year so my mood matches the situation. I will not wear a scarf on a freaking hot, sunny day, obviously! Evening hangouts or classes would be the perfect times.

By the way, I'm not going to say much this time but show you a video of me showing you how I wear my scarf, and also still photos of how I look wearing it.

My compact camera is pretty old. I've been thinking of getting a new one but it's not on the top of my priority list of things I wanna have at the moment as much as I do like taking pictures -still and videos. The point is the pictures look pretty crappy. I couldn't and didn't want to over enhance them using Photoshop 'cause this time I wanted to keep them as close as possible to the original ones.

Here's the video (sorry for the repetitive music. It was midnight!!) followed by still photos:


Style 1 [favorite]:

Style 2:

Style 3:

Style 4:

Style 5 [favorite]:

Style 6:

Style 7:

I showed some of the styles to my brother and he was quite surprised by them. Normally, he would just wrap a scarf around his neck a few times in the conventional or typical simple way without a tie. Although I don't think I will ever show him this post and the video ;)) Quite embarrassing!

Hope you enjoyed! :D
This post happens to be posted during Christmas week. Some countries are also having the winter season so yea... although for the purpose of cold evening hangouts, these styles can be worn throughout the year.

  4. Oh hahaha. It was, actually, inspired by the Japanese bow ;)) I just wasn't sure how to end the video. Waving would be a bit errrr weird so I bowed instead :p
