It's a minimalist's must-have - multi-purpose, lightweight, and stylish - to travel lighter, easier, and better.
1. neck scarf
When it's cold out, a scarf can be a plain good ol' scarf to keep your neck warm.
Wrap around your neck in any style or knots you want, it's sure to do a snuggly job.
2. shawl
Worn over the shoulders, a scarf can become a wrap or a shawl to cover up some more.
3. fashion accessory
Especially with a minimalist capsule wardrobe, adding a scarf to different clothing combinations can create entirely new looks and outfits to make them appear unique.
It's a versatile mix and match addition that can be worn pretty much year-round.
4. skirt
Wrap and knot the fabric around your waist to make a short, knee-length, or long skirt.
A great wardrobe addition, a makeshift piece in a pinch, or for extra cover.
5. dress
Tie up top and you can create a simple, easy off the shoulder dress or coverup.
Toga!
