To celebrate the release the new A Beautiful Mess for ModCloth scarves I thought it would be fun to share some of my favorite ways to wear them! These are all simple stylings I often wear in everyday life. First up, a good ole bow headband. Just pull each end of the scarf up from the back of the head and tie a (messy) bow up top. This styling is a good way to add a pop of color or pattern to your outfit!
Next up, use your scarf as a headband! Just tie it under the back of your hair. I love this styling for hiding grown out roots! It's can add a little 1960s vibe to any outfit.
I love a knotted headband! This is easy and so much more stylish than a plain headband! Here are more photos of how it's styled.
This next one is fun and playful! Tie your hair up in a messy top knot and then tie a bow on the front with your scarf. Instant volume!
If my hair is ever a day (or two) past due for washing I will almost always wear this style. It's just a messy top knot with a scarf as an extra thick headband. It's great for concealing less than perfect hair!
One of the easiest hairstyles ever is a combination of twisted maiden braids (just twist and pin!) and a turban styled scarf. To get this look, just tie a knot at the top of your head and then tuck in the ends under the band. I'm wearing this style right now, actually!
I hope you've gathered a little inspiration (or maybe a reminder of a hairstyle you haven't worn in a while?) for some upcoming good hair days! If you want to shop my scarves, click here! XO. elsie
PS. I saw on twitter today that some of your have already started getting your ABM for ModCloth orders on your doorsteps! YAY. Leave me a link here if you blog photos of yourself wearing them, ok? I love seeing your styles.




Elsie you look so beautiful! My hair is ALMOST long enough to do maiden braids. Can't wait to start wearing my hair like that! xo. Deanna

I love when you wear them like a headband! They look so good (and I bet are so much more comfortable than headbands!)
