The bandana is becoming a must-have accessory to add that final flourish to your look. Extremely versatile, the bandana can be worn in many ways, ranging from your neck to your wrist.
When I was younger, I was obsessed with wearing one. I had a baby blue coloured paisley style that I used to wear over my head with a matching New Era cap I got from America – dressed to the side of course.
My taste levels have evolved from then, and so has my styling. Here are some of my favourite ways to wear the bandana:
HEADBAND
Fold the square into a triangle, and then fold up from the long end until you have a long piece. Position on your forehead and tie at the back.
TRIANGLE
Start with the flat square bandana and fold into a triangle. Tie around the neck with the triangle either at the front or the back creating a neck scarf.
WRAP
For more of a practical approach, and for colder seasons, wrap the bandana around the neck or wrist and knot at the front.
FRONT TWIST
Instead of a flat fold, twist the scarf to form a swirl effect, concealed the back or have it tied at the front.
BACK KNOT
Fold the square into a triangle, and then fold up from the long end until you have a long piece. Position it around your neck like a scarf and tie at the back.
FRONT KNOT
Switch the knot to the front for a versatile look.
CONCEALED
Fold to create a long rectangle and wrap around the neck, concealing the ends underneath your t-shirt.
If you think you can pull off the look, here are a few options that you can choose.
