Tutorial #153 is this Strapless Triangular Bandeau! First, fold your square scarf diagonally in half. Then, wrap the longest edge (which is also the fold) around your upper bust area under your armpits, and tie a secure double knot behind.

Pretty easy! it’s cold where I am, so I love this layered over sweaters and collared shirts for a pop of colour and to add more shape. You can also wear this with a swimsuit and miniskirt in the summer to transition from beach to going out for lunch.

Happy Bastille Day! Scarf Tying Tutorial #126 is the Scarf Headband Braid Side Crown. I have a love-envy relationship with French chic and I thought this side braid was a suitably chic and sophisticated way of getting long hair out of the face. The first step is to fold a square scarf on the bias into a long strip and tie it around your head like a headband. Next, braid the ends into your hair in a side braid. Fasten with a hair tie or tie the ends of the scarf around the ends of the plait. Lift the plait to lie flat on that side of your head and pin into place. Voila!

Tie two adjacent corners into a double knot, repeat for the remaining two corners, then slip your arms through the loops! :D
