3 Classy Ways to Pair a Shirt With a Scarf
In this tutorial, I’ll show you how to wear a scarf with a shirt in three easy ways.
These bandana ideas are great for in-office wear or for anyone who wants to master the shirt with scarf pairing. Let’s get started.
Style 1: Tucked-in
1. Tie the scarf around your neck
Start with a small scarf. Fold the scarf into a triangle and tie the ends behind your neck.
2. Tuck the scarf into your shirt
Tuck the scarf into your shirt and collar, so it appears almost like a turtleneck.
I wear my scarf this way all of the time.
A little tip: if you have a dark scarf and a white shirt, add a dark jacket. See the difference? This works every time!
Style 2: Neck collar
For this look, we’re going to make a band. You can fold it two different ways, depending on which side you want facing up.
First method
1. Fold opposite edges to the middle
Take one corner and fold it in towards the middle of the scarf. Then, take the opposite corner and fold it over top of the first one.
2. Fold in to create the band
Begin folding in from one straight edge until there is one fold left.
Then, fold the final edge over the top of the previous folds to create the band.
This style of fold gives you arrow ends and has a clean end.
Second method
1. Fold into a triangle
Bring one corner to the opposite corner to create a triangle.
2. Fold into a band
Fold up from the longest end to finish the band.
This style has more of an unclean end but has the flagged band.
3. Tie in the back
The first way to wear it is to just tie it around your neck like a collar.
With this folded method, you can also show off a little corner beneath the collar for added detail.
4. Tie in the front
The second way to wear it is to tie it in the front instead of the back using a double knot and touch the ends up.
You can also wear it to the side.
Style 3: Flower
1. Fold in half
Fold in half to create a triangle.
2. Tie the ends together
Double knots the opposite corners together.
3. Open
Open the folded triangle.
4. Twist the two ends around each other
Pull one corner underneath the tied knot.
Twist it around the other corner and tighten it.
5. Tie it off
Tie the two ends around your neck and you're done!
