How to Turn a Silk Scarf Into a Top - Two Ways

8.4.17

I love silk scarves. I collect them from vintage and charity shops, and I now have quite the collection (a ridiculous amount). I love wearing them in my hair, but other than that I never really wear them. But then I got to thinking, how can I have all of these beautiful pieces of fabric just laying around? I'd seen quite a few pictures of silk scarves as tops and though it looked so gorgeous. I'm a huge fan of the care-free, natural aesthetic recently, and I can just imagine frolicking (frolicking) on the beach wearing this and some shorts. If you have any old scarves gathering dust, I hope you find this useful. Don't let anything go to waste!

⭐ Halve the scarf diagonally so the scarf becomes a triangle.


⭐ Place the scarf in front of your body and fold a two inch fold down the longer side.
⭐ Place the middle of the tip of the triangle over your belly button to ensure it is centered.
⭐ Pull the sides of the scarf behind you, placing it under your arms, and tie a secure knot at your mid-back.
⭐ Halve the scarf diagonally so the scarf becomes a triangle.


⭐ Fold the triangle in half, from the top triangle tip to the longest edge.
⭐ Fold again so you get a thick band.
⭐ Tie the scarf around your chest and tie a knot in the front as tight as you can.

  6. Your wardrobe will look more polished by wrapping a scarf around your waist, and it will help keep you warm on a cold day. But it can get tedious just to toss it around your neck, and it's not really visually appealing. Locate the beautiful silk scarf between the collar and your neck if you are wearing a jacket with a hood. That way, whether it starts raining or snowing, you can always put your hood up.
