Scarves have graduated from being an optional add-on to a summer must-have that can complete any look. Lightweight scarves are a rage – they are versatile and you can wear them any way you want. A scarf can even add quirk and colour to your workwear – it all depends on the way you wear it. Here are a few fun ways of styling it.

As a headband

When managing hair seems like a task, scarves can be your saviour. We suggest picking up lightweight scarves in gorgeous prints such as floral, paisley or stripes and wearing them like a headband. If you find a bun more comfortable than open hair, fasten it with a scarf tied like a bow. Take some notes from Eva Mendes and Rihanna on how to keep it sassy with a lightweight scarf.

As a neck tie

Get over the traditional French knot. Instead, tweak it by twisting your scarf and tying a knot around your neck. You can even use a brooch to make it look more sophisticated. With a long scarf you can try tying a defined bow as well. Take cues from Gucci on how to pair scarf-ties with a simple shirt.
