How to tie a scarf over a jacket?
First of all, we recall that simple models of jackets complement well unusual bright scarves: in a “crumpled” style, with brushes and other chips. If the outerwear itself is very original, has catchy accessories or an unusual style, then the accessories should be as concise as possible. Otherwise, you risk overloading the image.
Of course, it is easiest to choose a scarf for a jacket without a collar. If it is, and even more so when it is a model with a hood, then it is usually tied underneath.
The most popular are several ways to tie a scarf on a warm jacket or coat.
- Throw a long winter scarf around the neck so that one end hangs more than the other, wrap it around the neck and lower both ends down. Alternatively, they can be fixed with a brooch. A thick knitted accessory is also suitable for this method.
-
Take a wide thin scarf of medium length so that it is slightly sagging and the fabric is gathered in a drapery. Attach it to the neck, and wrap the ends around it so that they intersect at the back and stretch it forward. It is not necessary to tighten tightly, let them lie on their shoulders freely.
This method resembles the previous one, only the ends of the scarf do not remain to fall over the shoulders, but are tied in front to a free volume knot.
- Looks stylishly option, known to many under the name "harness". This solution is more suitable for thin scarves. Twist the canvas into a loose flagellum and wrap it around the neck. Tie a small knot on the side. Despite the apparent airiness, a warm scarf is obtained, which reliably protects from wind and frost.
Scarves for leather jackets
It is worthwhile to tell separately about the choice of scarves for short leather jackets, which from year to year remain hits of collections. They are worn all year round, choosing warmer or thinner models depending on the season. At the same time, in the spring, the right choice would be a scarf made of cotton and other light materials with shine, of fine wool or silk, and in the fall, more dense patterns, knitted or knitted.
- Tie a scarf under the jacket to the French knot. To do this, fold the scarf in half, throw it over the neck and stretch the ends forward so that there is a loop on one side and the “tails” on the other. Pass them through the loop so that there is no strong tension. Model choose a classic, not very long, colors, matching the tone of the jacket. So he will not peep too much from under his outer clothing.
- To make the accessory look voluminously throw it with slight negligence, as if you did it on the run. Easily wrap your neck around it several times and make a loose knot at the ends. Or leave the ends to hang freely. This method will look good with a chiffon scarf, and with an air knit, and with a winter version of large knitting.
Typically, the resulting kit is self-sufficient and does not require additional decorations. With the help of a scarf, your everyday look will sparkle with bright colors and become not so everyday.
How to tie a stole?
The palatine looks best with a stand-up collar or a small turn-down collar if you lift it.
- You can use the already known "French" node. Having folded the canvas two (three) times, you need to skip the free ends into this loop. The tips in this case can freely hang, and you can insert them into the loop a second time. With a short stole length, hide the ends in the resulting volume unit. It can be located on the side or in front.
- If you wear a stole under the jacket, then the ends can be hidden inside, and the peeping cloth is maximally spread around the neck.
- To wear a stole on a down jacket with a hood, you can choose this method. We throw it on the head, tie it to a knot in the back, and then we straighten the canvas on the shoulders right under the hood. So the jacket will become more elegant, while you can use the hood.
Palatine is perhaps the most elegant scarf. It can make your image more refined, so feel free to experiment with it at any time of the year.
How to choose the right color and wear?
If you make a mistake with the choice of the color of the scarf, then you can ruin the whole picture.

Here are some tips to prevent this from happening.
Lovers of everything brilliant should keep in mind that Lurex in a scarf will make you olderno matter what color he is. Dark and green accessories, including the popular khaki, often make the skin visually even paler - These tones should be chosen only for those who can boast a healthy glow.

With a leather jacket, which are most often black and other neutral colors, scarves look almost any color and with any patterns. Bright shades will give the kit a more elegant and fresh look.
But with a sports jacket it is better to wear plain accessories, as they usually consist of inserts of several colors. Yes, and sports style itself does not imply a variety of textures and prints on scarves.
Quite a lot of colors are combined with a blue, blue or green jacket: yellow, pink, blue, and neutral colors like beige or black are unlikely to spoil the ensemble.
With a brown jacket, you should not abuse bright colors, elegant burgundy, olive, sand, terracotta shades will look better with it.
Pink outerwear is especially suitable for a raspberry-tone jacket, purple, lilac, gray and blue, with a leopard print.
Burgundy, ginger, mustard, sand, blue, blue and red accessories are combined with a beige jacket.
Scarves of absolutely any shade can be combined with a gray jacket, everything here more likely depends on the overall image.
How to change a figure with a scarf?
In some cases, due to flaws in the selection of the wardrobe, the silhouette looks less harmonious, and the figure is more squat. In no case should such errors be made. So, what else should you look for when choosing an accessory such as a scarf?
The following set will visually stretch the silhouette: a long coat and a long scarf tied around the neck, contrasting in color.
A large knit scarf, as with a large pattern, can visually add weight to you. They are best worn only by very slim ladies. If you absolutely do not need extra pounds, then opt for thin scarves and stoles with a smooth surface.
A thin scarf tied a little to one side will also distract attention from the tummy. But wrapping a scarf around the neck in a few turns is not worth it, the extra volumes are useless here.
Choose a scarf based on these recommendations and this accessory can not only warm you in the winter, but also cheer you up in any weather.
