Linen Scarves – Stylish and Functional Accessories for Hot Summer

A quality linen scarf is a wardrobe must-have. Pure linen exudes great taste and elegance, whilst also being timelessly stylish. Linen scarves are not just fashionable, they are also incredibly useful: a lightweight scarf is the perfect companion for chilly evenings on a summer vacation, and it will also keep you cosy during the cooler months.

Thanks to its natural ability to take dyes, linen comes in a huge range of colors, meaning you can find the perfect scarf to complement your clothes. We love wearing paler greys in Spring and Summer, and switching to richer jewel tones for a pop of color in Winter.

What makes linen scarves so comfortable?

Linen scarves should be made from lightweight fabric to let the air circulate easily, and stop you feeling stuffy when it’s hot. For maximum softness it should be prewashed during the production process – this is important for your delicate neck and shoulder skin.

How to wear your linen scarf

As well as accessorising your outfit, linen scarves have practical uses as well. Here are some ways to use your scarf :

• Use traditionally - wrap it around your neck – add some accent to your outfit.
• Cover your shoulders for warmth and coziness during cool summer evenings.
• Make it a beach skirt – just wrap around your hips.
• Forgot your summer hat at home? Do not worry – use your linen scarf to make a bandanna!
• Care for some rest in the park? Make your linen scarf into a rug to lie on.
• Are you a young mom? Have one of your scarves on you all the time as they are so useful. A scarf can cover your baby when they're sleeping, shield them against the sun or wind,  be spread in a pram for extra comfort, or even wrapped around the baby if get caught without their coat.

But the most important advice is to wear your soft, lightweight linen scarf when you want to feel feminine, elegant and add a touch of softness to your outfit.

Although soft and non-bulky, a quality linen scarf will keep on working hard during the colder months as well. Wrapped tighter around your neck, it will protect you against the cold and wind.

Linen scarves go especially well with linen clothes, for effortless style and minimal effort.
