Feather scarf
An outrageous accessory that allows you to add chic to any look. It is advisable to purchase such products only from high-quality manufacturers, since feathers have a tendency to quickly crumble. It will be a pity if the purchased original accessory will not serve you for long.

![](https://fashion.decorexpro.com/images/article/cropped/220-308/2016/12/zhenskie-sharfy--32.jpg)
It is best to combine a feather scarf with more elegant looks. It can be a small dress or a set with a skirt. But if you put on feathers with ordinary jeans and a T-shirt, then it will look a little ridiculous. Nowadays, decorations with feather additions are extremely common, so a scarf can replace them as well.

Ideal scarf length
In addition to colors, fabrics and styles, the choice of a scarf is based on another important parameter - length. The optimal size primarily depends on the purpose of the accessory and your height. It should be borne in mind that wide long scarves, tied in one turn, greatly visually reduce growth, but thin models, on the contrary, will help to “stretch” the silhouette.
In order not to be mistaken in the selection of this item of clothing, follow the following rule - the scarf should not exceed a third of your height. Fortunately, even the longest scarf can be shortened, just choose a different way to wear it.

Fall Fashion Trends
When choosing a scarf, as well as when choosing any other wardrobe item, it is advisable to pay attention to the latest fashion trends. This season, the main emphasis was on the texture and color of the scarves.
![](https://fashion.decorexpro.com/images/article/thumb/450-0/2016/12/zhenskie-sharfy--44.jpg)
So, snoods and large-knit scarves have been recognized as the most fashionable for several years in a row. Such models add fragility and femininity. When choosing, try to find options for pastel shades. If last season the trend was scarves interspersed with shiny threads, then in this it is advisable to abandon everything shiny and too pretentious.

A combination of beautiful and elegant brooches with scarves and shawls is also considered a trend. In this regard, many world famous brands have released scarves with the most appropriate additions. Such specimens can be found among the models from Armani and Calvin Klein.

How to choose a scarf
However, when choosing a scarf seasonally, there are a few more rules to follow. If a scarf in the winter season is not a kind of home blanket, but "goes out", then it is better to choose scarves of bright colors with bold prints, floral motifs and unusual patterns. On a cold evening, a soft woolen shawl will warm you and add sophistication to your outfit. In summer, a chiffon or silk scarf, loosely tied around the neck, is ideal.

A scarf helps to not only liven up your seasonal look, but also to hide or highlight flaws. With the help of a scarf, you can visually reduce a prominent bust or voluminous hips. If you are not happy with your shoulders because they seem too wide, put on a scarf. If your neck seems a bit short, an impressively tied scarf can easily hide it. Also, if, for some reason, you are unhappy with your hairstyle - a scarf on your head will help correct the situation. This is a great choice for a summer bow, giving you some mystery.
For the more daring and preferring youth style, such a scarf can be used as a bandanna.

This unique accessory can be used in a thousand options, everything is limited only by your imagination! A scarf that is wide enough can be used as a sarong (a strip of fabric wrapped around the waist: author's note). In youth fashion, a thin scarf can be used as a strap on underwear. With the right color scheme, a scarf will help liven up your everyday look. But at business meetings or official events, the scarf will look very appropriate. A deliberately careless scarf around the neck will suit an elegant outfit.
If you are in the mood for flirting, on such an evening, a frivolous attitude can help create a scarf tied around the waist.

The yarn for making a scarf can be either natural or acrylic. Naturally, natural wool will cost much more, and you need to take care of such a product in a special way, but unlike acrylic, such a thing will last you more than one year.

There are several ways to tie "over" clothes:
- The loop is ordinary. It requires a minimum amount of effort and time. Place the scarf over your shoulders so that one end is longer than the other. Sling the long part of the scarf over your shoulder, thus wrapping your neck.
- Two. The technique is no different from the first method. The main thing is to make two turns.
- Stylish knot. The beginning is absolutely identical to the first two methods. The essence of this method is to experiment with the ends. So, for example, you can thread the ends of the scarf inside and drape the resulting loop at random.
- Scarf shawl. Throw the scarf asymmetrically over your shoulders, twist once. Tuck one corner into the thread formed on the other side. Adjust the front of the scarf.
- Student node. This is a very easy way to create a great bow in minutes. Fold the attribute in half, throw it over the neck like this, and push both ends into the loop formed.
- Put the scarf around your neck without tying or wrapping it. Thus, the neck visually lengthens, the silhouette is emphasized.
- Throwing a snood over one shoulder, you need to make a loop, then put it on the other shoulder. This method is not suitable for outerwear.
- Throwing a scarf around your neck, you need to make a loop, and then put the other end on your head. This option will protect in cold weather instead of a headgear.
- The most common option is to put the collar around your neck and make a loop, then put it back on. You can make any number of such loops.
- Wrap the scarf around your neck, threading one end into the other, and tighten. This is a great option for business looks.
- Long snoods can be used as a vest that will add femininity: put a scarf around your neck, passing your arms through the loops.
