How to wear a scarf in the Spring

Screen Shot 2015-03-16 at 8.17.29 PM

Can I get a little what what for these warmer temperatures we’ve been having?  But there are some pieces of winter wear that I’m just not ready to give up.  First up: scarves.  In order to avoid that warm look, here’s some ways to transition your scarf collection to the new season!

1. Select bright a bright colored scarf.  It can be patterned or solid but it needs to have some color to it!
2.  The scarf should be a light-weight fabric.  Stay away from wools and other sweater-like material.
3.  Pair the scarf with something light and colorful.  Go with whites or brights.
4.  Stay away from other winter accessories.  Trade boots for flats {or sandals!}; skip the gloves; swap the pea coats for lightweight jackets.

  • The pattern and colors on your scarf are so pretty!!! I love wearing scarves in the spring, mostly because it’s still pretty chilly here! I love how you looped it too…need to try that! xo, Biana – BlovedBoston

    • Thanks! I’m not really good at incorporating color {I’m such a neutral fan} but scarves always seem to be a good way to do that.

  • That scarf is really cute! I’ve never mastered the scarf look…

    • You could totally do it, girlfriend!

    Love it! My scarves get worn pretty much year round – but there are definitely spring/summer scarves and definite fall/winter ones! I’m probably doing a How2Wear scarves post soon too! Great minds think alike!

    • Yes! Such a difference in the scarves I wear depending on the time of year. Can’t wait to see your post!

  • Jana

    I love the pattern of your scarf!! SO cute. :)

    • Thanks, Jana! Solids and neutrals are my natural inclination so incorporating patterns and colors through accessories is one of my favorite things to do.

    • Thanks, Amy Ann. Cobalt has been one of my favorite colors recently!

  • I have definitely been loving the warmer weather lately. I was pretty chilly yesterday but the sun was still shining, so that’s always a plus. I love light scarves for Spring.

    • Such an easy way to incorporate color and interest, right?

  • Love the scarf! The pattern is so pretty. Can’t wait until spring is in full swing!

    • For real! Can we get it soon? :)

  • I love bright and fun scarves! I can’t wait to wear mine soon!

    • They just make an outfit feel so pulled together, don’t they?

  • Scarves are one of my all time favorite accessories. I wear them year round.

    • I love them too! They’re my favorite in fall and winter but I like to keep certain ones out in the warmer temps, too!

  • Loving the royal blue with the colorful scarf! Scarves are a must have in the Spring Season!

    • Thanks, Nancy! I’m not very good at incorporating pattern into my outfits unless it’s through accessories!

  • Great post! I’m one of those people who wear scarves until it’s seriously too hot to wear one haha.

    • Haha, I love them too!!

  • I agree! There are so many ways to wear scarf all year round, not just for the cold temps. This is true esp for light fabric scarves like chiffon :)

    By the way, I have new posts up. I’d love to hear what you think :)

      3- Kaitlyn got me started on it with the monogrammed bracelet.
      4- Thanks! I hadn’t designed anything recently so I was starting to get that itch.
