Wearing a Scarf as a Headband

August 12, 2019

Headbands have become rather popular since they appeared in several recent major runway shows. I keep getting Blair Waldorf (Gossip Girl) vibes from several of the headband wearing fashion bloggers I follow on Instagram, making me even more excited that the show is getting a reboot (expected in the spring of 2020, who's watching with me?!). If styled correctly, headbands have a way of completing an outfit while keeping hair out of the face.

While a standard headband is often used to achieve the look, wearing a scarf neatly rolled up and tied around the head is one of my favorite style hacks. Once headbands go out of style (trends never hang around forever!) I can continue styling my scarf in other ways. I recently wore the Peonies on Carrara marble scarf with a crocheted Kobi Halperin dress and Tabitha Simmons shoes. I'll admit, it was a little daunting venturing out of my comfort zone and wearing a scarf as a headband. However, it was fun and reminded me that I need to be a little more fearless and have fun styling my wardrobe.
