Boho Scarf Styles

A boho scarf is the perfect accessory to showcase your bohemian sense of style during the colder winter months. That's because people don't usually notice your clothes and jewelry hidden underneath your coat - so a scarf will easily highlight your style!

Not only are scarves inexpensive, but they're flexible too. A scarf can be worn as a necklace, headband or even a belt. Typical boho prints are paisley, Ikat, Batik and florals in rich and earthy colors - anything that looks ethnic and folkloric, will definitely accentuate your bohemian style.

How to Wear a Boho Scarf

Layer It With a Necklace

Boho-inspired scarves complement necklaces very well and create that effortless-cool layering look that defines bohemian fashion - so go ahead, team it up with your favorite necklace for an ultra-chic look!

Examples of necklaces:

Long pearl necklace (this creates a chic juxtaposition of boho and classy)
Multiple chain necklace (be careful if you're petite, you don't want the neck accessory to overpower your short stature!)
Beaded necklace (I would pair a paisley scarf with my handmade turquoise gemstone necklace)

You can also wrap a thin chiffon boho scarf with a simple necklace for that twisted-woven look.

Wear It As a Necklace

A stylish and easy way to wear a boho scarf is to wear it as a necklace. In this way you don't have to wrap it back up again throughout the day. So if you want to leave out the noisy bling (necklace) but want to add some interest to your neckline, wrap a rectangle scarf around your neck and tie a little knot at the back of your nape.

Slim and light-weight scarves are best for this look. You can also take a slim chiffon scarf and tie a simple not with the end at the back.

Wear It As a Headwrap

Infuse some 70s fashion to your style by wearing a scarf as a headwrap or headband. You can create several looks with a scarf piece - see this headscarf styling-link.
