Scarf-snood for girls
It's nice when you can create a bright and stylish image with the help of not only beautiful, but also functional things. Snood can become one of such versatile details in your current wardrobe. This knitted accessory came into fashion in the 80s of the twentieth century. It is a circular scarf with a voluminous texture, which, due to its dimensions, can easily replace a hat or a hood. To do this, you just need to throw it over your head.
This piece of clothing was then called a yoke. It was worn by young girls, sophisticated women of fashion and even little girls 3 years old. Among them one could find both exclusively decorative models, and really warm ones, the owners of which are not afraid of any frosts. For a while, voluminous wide clamps were forgotten, giving way to more classic models of scarves and hats.
However, in recent years, snoods have again become very popular. In Europe, the fashion for snoods originated in 2011. They are readily worn not only with casual clothes in the casual style, but also with sophisticated outfits. Consider which snood models are relevant now.
Material
Snoods can be made of fur, knitwear, silk. Models made of thin, warm materials look exquisite on the shoulders of fashionistas. However, most often today you can see knitted products with voluminous patterns like braids and are worn mainly by adolescents and young girls. They use yarns such as mohair, angora or alpaca. If you like to wear snoods, then you can not part with them in spring and even summer. You should pay attention to snoods made of cotton, polyester and viscose.
Models
The length of these products varies, on average 65 centimeters. If you want to achieve not just beautiful draperies, but layering, then it is better to purchase a model 1.5–2 meters long. The most appropriate width of the snood is 35-40 centimeters. The shortest collars, but wide enough, are simply worn as hoods.
Now about children's models. Usually the minimum size of the snood is 22 × 120 cm, which is appropriate for a girl of 6-8 years old. For younger babies, parents usually choose ordinary scarves and hats. If desired, of course, you can find or knit snood for crumbs. Girls 4-5 years old can wear a collar that is 15 cm wide and 99 cm long.
For teenage girl
Let's dwell on the teenage models of these products. The scarf collar should be combined with other outerwear. You can pick up fashion accessories for a down jacket, sheepskin coat and even a sports jacket.
As for the length, here you should focus on the following parameters: for girls of 9 years old: the recommended width of the snood is 20 cm and the length is 127 cm, and for a girl of 13 years old you can take a little more width - 22 cm, and 141 cm length.
Colour
In addition to the color compatibility of the snood and other details of the image, it is important to remember that snood, like any scarf, frames the face, which means that the choice of shade must be approached carefully. You probably won't like it if he focuses on imperfections in complexion.
In general, gray, black and green accessories sometimes make a pale face look even more unhealthy. Orange or turquoise colors will refresh the skin. You can buy snood for the color of the eyes to add expressiveness to them.
Red is recommended to wear green, purple, brown, chocolate, khaki and blue. For owners of light hair and pale skin, it is better not to choose scarves in gray-beige shades. Pastel fresh tones such as mint, pale lilac mint or peach will look more successful. Brunettes can wear scarves of any bright color.
How to choose
You can find a suitable snood model simply by following your taste and imagination. Here are some tips to help you avoid mistakes when purchasing this accessory.
- In addition to the color, which we have already written about, pay attention to the surface of the product. Apply it to your cheek and if it turns out to be unpleasant, prickly, then of course you should not take this product. Allergy is not excluded, which is not so easy to get rid of later. Trust your feelings and experiences, not the words of the salesperson.
- Snood and in a summer ensemble can be very appropriate. It not only adds mystery to the image, but also protects the face from the sun and wind. Such an accessory with large round-shaped earrings does not look bad.
How to wear for teenage girls
Usually girls wear snood like a hood, thus replacing a hat and scarf. It is put on like this - we throw the canvas over two hands and turn one of them to make an eight, and fold it in half. Put the resulting two circles around your neck so that the intersection of the loops is in front. Then one of them is thrown over the head.
A small snood is simply worn around the neck. To make the accessory look neat and not creep away, it can be secured with a brooch that matches the style.
A long snood can be put on one end of the head, and the other can be left hanging from the back. It can also be hidden under outerwear. If the snood is narrow enough and the length allows, then it can be folded even in three and put on your head.
Now how to wear summer clamps. Cotton products can be worn as beads with a jacket or cardigan. Lacy snoods will make unpretentious dresses that fit the figure more unusual. Remember that if you fold the snood several times, then it is better to take the thing as simple as possible.
You can also fasten one loop with a brooch on the clothes in the shoulder area, there are options with loops, on stretched below the shoulders. If you take a more authentic model, you can make a kind of vest. The longest clamp can replace the vest. First, put it on your waist or under your chest, turn it in front, and pull this loop around your neck.
Experiment and do not be afraid to choose unusual styles of scarves, and then your image will be truly unusual and memorable.
