How to Style a Silk Scarf

Some outfits are technically finished yet still feel incomplete. A silk scarf is the simplest resolution. It can turn a simple outfit into something special, add colour to neutral clothes, or give you that completed look when you're rushing out the door. With just one scarf, you can create so many different looks, you'll always have something new to try.

At Welligogs, we create timeless scarves that combine classic style with modern versatility, designed for women who appreciate quality and craftsmanship wherever they go. 

Here's how to get the most out of each of our silk scarves

1. Styling the Prairie Scarves

Our Prairie Scarves come in 2 different designs and measure 68 x 68cm, making them the perfect size for a last-minute accessory. The Equus Prairie Scarf is our equestrian-inspired scarf that features royal blue, soft gold, and cream colours. The Poppy Prairie Scarf has our signature hand-painted poppy flower design, and comes in a rich red or deep green colourway. See how @countryclassiclucinda styles our Equus scarf here for more inspiration

• Cowboy Classic: Fold the Equus Scarf into a triangle, then fold it over lengthwise once. Twist it around your neck and make a double knot in front. This gives you that relaxed, country look that works great with jeans and boots. Make it casual by coupling this look with a denim jacket.
• Office Chic: Fold the Equus Scarf into a triangle, then fold it into a long tube. Wrap it around your neck and tie a double knot in front, leaving long tails. Pair it with a plain button-down or sweater for the perfect office attire, and you’ll look polished and professional.
• Countryside Catwalk: Fold the Equus Scarf into a triangle, then roll it into a long tube. Twist it around your neck and tie a double knot in front. Since it looks good on both sides, you don't have to worry about which way it falls. This would go perfectly with summer dresses for outdoor events.
• Bag Accessory: Tie the Poppy Prairie Scarf to your bag handle to add some personality. The flower print makes plain bags pop.
• The Easy Neck Tie: Fold the Poppy Prairie Scarf corner to corner and put it around your neck. Take one end and pull it through the loop to make a soft knot. The flower design adds colour and interest to simple outfits.

2. Styling the Poppy Giant Long Scarf

The Poppy Giant Long Scarf comes in red or green with the same painted poppy design as the Poppy Prairie Scarf and measures 43 cm by 153 cm, allowing for different styling options:

• Simple and Easy: Just put the Poppy Giant Long Scarf around your neck and let both ends hang down. The length creates nice movement when you walk. This simple style works with almost anything, and the big flower print makes a statement without being too much.

• Double Wrap: Wrap the Poppy Giant Long Scarf around your neck twice, then adjust the loops so they sit at different levels. This gives you more coverage and looks more interesting than a single wrap. Perfect when it's a bit chilly but not cold enough for a heavy scarf. 

• Beach Cover-Up: Use the Poppy Giant Long Scarf as a beach wrap or summer cover-up. The long length lets you tie it in different ways: around your waist like a skirt, over your shoulders, or even as a dress for the beach.

• Hair Accessory: The extra length makes this scarf perfect for head wraps. You can create beautiful looks by just wrapping it around your head and tying it at the back. The silk feels lovely on your skin, and the flower print adds drama to simple outfits.

• Evening Wrap: Put the Poppy Giant Long Scarf over your shoulders as a light evening wrap. The length gives you good coverage while the hand-painted flower design adds something special to dressy outfits. Perfect for dinner out or when you want something more elegant than a regular jacket.

Getting the Most from Your Silk Scarves

Each scarf brings a different look. The Equus Scarf is great for polished, horse-country looks. The Poppy Prairie Scarf brings artistic charm to everyday outfits. The Poppy Giant Long Scarf makes bold statements and gives you the most options because of its size. Try switching between them based on how you feel. Since there are endless ways to style our silk scarves, they are smart buys for any closet.
