My friend Sunny of Luna Junction Vintage works her model's ass off with styling her garments and accessories. She has inspired me to *attempt* to style my scarves in different ways to be more eye-catching.
For this extra long scarf, I used a brooch as a scarf clip. I gathered the scarf loosely and arranged the brooch at the shoulder being careful to not put holes in the silk fabric.
Then I played around with draping the scarf and came up with several more different looks.
This small Burmel scarf has a zebra theme.
I folded it and threaded it through the pin back of another brooch and really like the effect.
Then I intertwined the scarf with a string of white beads and came up with a couple of different looks.
This large square Christian Dior scarf became a knotted belt.
A long, colorful Perry Ellis scarf became a sash.
An oversized square polyester scarf became an obi belt.
These are several more attempts at making necklaces.
Lastly, my attempt to turn a really large square scarf into a halter top. I think I may need more practice!
A scarf doesn't have to be a boring piece of fabric that you stuff in a drawer and forget about. It's one of those wonderful things that can be re-used, re-purposed, re-styled, re-imagined, and re-invigorated.
