Think scarves are just for Fall and Winter? Oh contraire, my friend!
Here are 10 ways to style a Spring dress with your favorite scarves and (of course) a Scarf Lock!
Rescue those forgotten scarves from your closet and accessorize your dresses... completely revamping them.
If you’re lacking in thin scarves for warmer weather, check out Kettlewell’s Willow Scarves* https://www.kettlewellcolours.co.uk/us . They’re perfect for Spring and Summer and have a bit of stretch, making them even more versatile when it comes to styling.
1. Give your strapless (or thin strapped) dress a 50s vibe by wrapping a scarf around your shoulders. Because who doesn’t love a romantic, wide neckline? Kettlewell’s Willow Scarves are stretchy enough to pull taut and fasten at the front with a Scarf Lock, meaning this feminine style will stay in place all day.
2. Have a low cut dress but don’t feel comfortable showing cleavage? Choose a long scarf and secure it with a Scarf Lock just under your bust. Creating a V shape on your neckline (with a scarf) adds just the right amount of coverage without hiding the entire top half of your dress. So you can confidently wear (and show off) those lower cut dresses.
3. Add whimsy with an over-the-shoulder style. Position your scarf to drape over a tight neckline and pull the Scarf Lock to one side. This gives an asymmetrical feel to an otherwise serious outfit. A metallic Scarf Lock supplies that final touch of bling.
4. Slip a thin, brightly coloured scarf under your collar and tie it at the front with a Scarf Lock. It’s an easy way to add panache to a simple, sleeveless dress. Feel comfy yet ready to go out.
5. Does your maxi dress look a little too plain? Switch things up with a long scarf in deep, saturated hues. Secure it at the front with a tiger print Scarf Lock, adding detail and personality. This is also an elegant way to accessorize a plain black dress for a night out.
6. Warmer weather draws us to the ocean, so why not look the part? Add a subtle mariner feel to a plain white outfit by layering with a Navy scarf and tying it at the front with a white or silver Scarf Lock. Scoop neck tops or dresses lend themselves perfectly to this classic, sailor inspired style.
7. Match a Scarf Lock to your dress color for a seamlessly accessorized and harmonious feel. Make the entire outfit pop by using a boldly contrasting scarf color.
8. Dress up a plain, neutral bodycon with an accent color. Warm, bright colored scarves work well, like this crimson red. Easily add interest by securing your accent scarf with a Scarf Lock. This is also a great hack for drawing attention away from your boobs and steering eyes to your neckline instead. So you can be bodycon confident!
9. Revamping a Spring/Summer dress isn’t just about color, consider the texture of your fabrics too. For example, a sheer scarf will pair perfectly with flowy crinkled cotton. Get your vacation style on by layering classic textures designed for warmer weather.
10. Worried about getting a little too cool? Add some coverage to a strapless (or thin strapped) Spring/Summer dress. A wide draping of the scarf over your shoulders will give a folky feel. Our Scarf Lock holds your makeshift shawl in place. Use a scarf in a complementary color to make your outfit pop.
There you have it! 10 scarf-friendly styles for revamping Spring outfits.
