A scarf is one of the convenient accessories that can easily complement your image, set the right mood and place accents the way you want. There are many subtleties in choosing a scarf and wearing it correctly, which determine how beautiful your coat and the chosen scarf will look.

How to choose a scarf

The scarf is matched to the coat based on two criteria - color and fabric. As for the color, there are also two options here: either the scarf will be in the same color scheme as the outerwear, or it will be some kind of contrasting shades.

If you choose a general range for the whole image, then remember that the scarf should be several tones different from the coat, be darker or lighter of your choice. It depends on whether the scarf will become the main element of the image or an addition.

If you are wearing a brown coat, you can choose a lighter beige, or a darker brick scarf. Decorate a red coat with a burgundy or rotten cherry scarf. Other lovers of pastel colors can experiment a little. For example, complement the same brown coat with a lemon scarf.The image is emphasized by the black details of shoes, bags, gloves.

Contrasting colors are black and red or white, blue and purple. By the way, one of the universal colors is gray. It is very convenient to keep such a scarf in the wardrobe. It will go with most things and can save you when nothing better is at hand.

The next step is materials and textures. There are also a few rules here. A fur product should not be decorated with the same fur scarf. Knitted scarves are not suitable for leather.

Pay attention to the overall image of the coat and scarf. If one of the things is in a strict style, the second should not be pretentious. So it is not right to wear a scarf with pom-poms or lurex to a classic coat, although the color may be suitable.

Try to take into account the complexion. Slender girls look good in light scarves. Dark colors are suitable for curvy women.

How to wear a scarf with a coat - general rules

The most common option is a regular knot. We throw a scarf around the neck, leaving one end longer than the other. We throw the long part around the neck again. The resulting loop must be straightened on the chest. The same option can be performed vice versa, so that the ends remain on the back.

The Parisian knot is loved by many fashionistas. To get it, fold the scarf in half and throw it around your neck. We will get a loop on one side and two ends folded together on the other. Then we thread the ends into the loop, tighten to the desired length. All is ready.

Collar. It can be improvised or real if you have a scarf in your wardrobe. From an ordinary scarf with long ends, the collar is made simply: we wrap the scarf around the neck several times so that the ends do not hang down, then we tuck them under the scarf. Warm and secure.

If you want to complete the look with a large square scarf, you can tie it like a shawl. Fold the scarf in half. Then we put it on the chest with a triangle, cross the ends at the back and bring them forward, where we tie them (it can be over the main part, it can be from below so that the ends are not visible).

Scarf and hat combo

Of course, it is worth picking up a scarf and a hat of the same tones and textures. However, it is not recommended to wear both products with the same patterns. From a distance it doesn't look very good. Better to have a little variety.

The same pattern of different sizes will look good. You will have to spend time looking for such models, because the finished sets just look the same. If you can’t find anything, you can diversify the image with a decorative decoration that you can choose yourself.

Shades also allow you to experiment. The scarf can be a couple of shades darker or vice versa. Such solutions will save you from monotony and monotony.

Stole + coat

The tippet can be simply thrown around the neck. And add zest to the image, if you fill the ends under the belt. If you simply wrap a scarf around your neck and shoulders, then visually increase their size. If the figure in the upper part is already voluminous, then it is better to avoid such a solution. A wide pelvis and narrow shoulders are suitable for such an ornament.

The tippet can be worn obliquely, thrown over one shoulder. The ends of the accessory are tied at the hip. Then we twist the stole in the middle and again around the neck. The double ring will perfectly warm in the cold.

If we are talking about a tippet made of light thin fabric, you can create a flower out of it. To do this, there must be a fringe on the stole. First, we fold the edge and collect the fabric, tie it with a fringe.Only after that we put the resulting decoration on the coat. An impromptu rosette can be laid on the shoulders and secured with a brooch or pin.

Another popular option is a stole butterfly. We start by throwing the scarf around the neck, twist it twice, fasten the ends to the shoulders with pins. We straighten the accessory and enjoy the resulting decoration.

Since the stole is a voluminous product, you can use it as a decoration on your head, and at the same time instead of a hat.

To make the image of a coat with a stole beautiful, you need to remember that fur, knitted stoles look good on smooth coats.

Cashmere stole goes with everything. And if you like silk, then you can wear it in spring and autumn.

Coat + tube scarf

A trumpet scarf or a snood scarf is a wonderful warm accessory. It can also be used as a scarf and hat. To do this, it is enough to correctly throw a scarf around your neck, wrap it a couple of times and leave a part to cover your head.

A tube scarf can be wrapped around the neck, leaving one end hanging freely on the chest. In this form, it is very decorative.

A snood scarf can also be wound like a bolero or cape, but this option is not very suitable for a coat.

Checked or tartan scarf

This is a special decoration. It is reminiscent of antiquity, in particular the Scottish knights, and suggests a particularly intelligent classical look. But despite all the severity, it surprisingly evokes comfort and warmth.

Since tartan already includes several colors in its range, in which red is often present, you can successfully shade it with bright lipstick without looking back at the coat. Then it does not really matter what color the outerwear will be.

Tartan can be worn not only in strict looks, it fits perfectly into everyday style, great for youth options. Despite the presence of a pattern, it can be worn with a coat, which is also decorated with various geometric prints. They will harmonize perfectly.

If your coat is pastel, you can complement it with green or navy blue tartan.

Silk scarf + coat

This look is perfect for fall or spring. How you will look also depends on the shoes. High-heeled shoes and a silk scarf, even paired with a classic coat, will look very elegant.

If your silk scarf is decorated with fringes, then this option is more suitable for summer.

A silk scarf and a plateau are very stylish. And if the outerwear is leather - this is a special chic. You should not be too zealous with laying the scarf, it is enough to freely throw it around your neck and shoulders and let it play in your image.

Plaid scarf + coat

Start wearing this accessory in late autumn and you can not take it off until spring. How to wear a plaid scarf? Just wrap yourself in it, because it is the most voluminous of all scarves.

It is better to choose a coat for such a scarf as simple as possible, since most of it will still be hidden under the folds of the “plaid”.

How to tie a scarf on different coats

With a collar

If your coat has a collar, don't hide it under a scarf. Wrap the scarf around your neck and leave the collar lying down. Or lift the collar, then you will be even warmer, and the image will become even more fashionable. The ends of the scarf can be hidden under the cutout of the plateau.

If you have a long scarf and a collared coat, you can lift up the collar and wrap the scarf around it as well as around your head. Then no wind will be terrible for you.

Collarless

The neck in a coat without a collar is completely unprotected, which means that all responsibility lies with the scarf. One of the most effective ways is a snood or a scarf tied in the shape of a snood.

V-neck

V - shaped neckline also leaves a lot of room for imagination. Volumetric scarves are suitable here, which completely drape the neckline and cover the neck.

Hooded

A coat with a hood does not create any restrictions for you. You can successfully play with the hood by wrapping the scarf under it or on top: dropped ends or hidden under a scarf, tucked into a coat. The hood doesn't get in the way even if you're wearing a snood scarf.

oversize

The oversized coat is designed to be voluminous. Therefore, it is one of the most difficult things to combine with scarves. Based on the laws of logic, it is logical to choose a modest scarf of not very large sizes for a voluminous coat. Most often, oversized coats are generally worn without scarves.

The most successful option is a very long scarf, which is casually thrown around the neck and its ends are left to hang freely almost to the floor.

With fur

A coat with fur also does not imply a great variety in scarves. After all, the fur trim usually frames the collars and in itself serves as an ornament. The main thing in no case do not choose the same fur scarves for him. Set your eyes on something thin and light to slightly cover your neck.
