12 Stylish Ways to Tie a Scarf

Our Travel Wraps are made from a luxurious bamboo, cashmere, and wool blend, making them incredibly soft, warm, and perfect for cooler weather. But they’re not just for staying warm — they’re one of the easiest ways to refresh your outfit. Whether you're dressing up, dressing down, or just trying to survive a freezing office, a few simple scarf tricks can instantly lift your look.
We’ve put together a quick video tutorial showing you 12 different ways to tie a scarf or wrap — from timeless styles to clever outfit upgrades. Save it, share it, or try a new one each day!

1. The Shoulder Wrap
Sometimes simple is best. Just drape the scarf over your shoulders like a light shawl for an effortlessly chic layer.

2. The Simple Tie
Wrap the scarf around your neck once and tuck the loose ends in at the front. Easy, classic, and effortlessly polished.

3. The Hood
Start with the Simple Tie as your base, then pull part of the scarf up over your head. Romantic, practical, and effortlessly chic — just add sunglasses (and a convertible!)

4. The Side Loop
Wrap the scarf around your neck once, tuck one end in, and then pull the other end through the side loop — and voilà, you've got an elegantly styled scarf that also keeps you extra warm on chilly days!

5. The Front Knot
Wrap the scarf around your neck once, then tie the two ends together in a chunky knot at the front. It looks best a little loose and slightly off-centre — like you didn’t spend ten minutes perfecting it (even if you did).

6. The Folded Loop
Fold the scarf in half, place it around your neck, and pull the loose ends through the loop. It’s clean, warm, and instantly makes you look put together.

7. The Poncho
Spread the wrap wide over your shoulders and arms like a cape. Tie the top corners together, twist, and slip it over your head. An elegant, timeless solution that pairs beautifully with evening dresses or layered over long sleeve tops for extra warmth.

8. The Twisted Loop
Wrap the scarf around your neck once and even out the loose ends. Then gently pull the centre of the scarf away from your neck and twist it to create a loop. Pull the loose ends through the loop. It’s an easy way to add texture and volume to even the simplest outfit.

9. The Cardigan
Wrap the scarf wide around your shoulders, then tie the bottom corners in a knot. Slip the knotted part over your head. Adjust the “sleeves” by spreading them neatly over your arms and tucking the ends into the sleeves of your top. It’s a clever and sophisticated way to wear the Travel Wrap — and it looks just as good from the back as it does from the front.

10. The Shrug
Fold the wrap lengthwise and drape it around your shoulders. Tie the ends together in a thick knot, then move the knotted part behind your neck. Twist the front section into a loop and slip it over your head. You’ll have a cosy shrug that covers your shoulders and adds an extra layer of warmth.

11. The Tunic
Drape the wrap around your shoulders, cross the ends over your front, and tie them in a knot behind your back. It looks best styled with Voyager pants or Soft bamboo leggings underneath. Bonus tip: add a belt to dress it up even more.

12. The Triangle
Fold the wrap into a triangle and drape it across your front with the point facing down. Wrap the ends around your neck and tie them underneath. This is our ultimate cold-weather styling — thick, cosy, and perfect for chilly climates.
And there you have it - 12 easy ways to style your Travel Wrap and make it work for just about any outfit (or any weather). Whether you keep it simple or get a little creative, the beauty of a good wrap is that it moves with you. Play around, find your favourites, and don’t be afraid to make each style your own.
