Wool bandanas are the new scarves

We may be in the middle of the cold season, but what wardrobe can't handle a little update? In any case, according to fashion professionals, this winter accessory really belongs in every wardrobe. Instead of thick wool scarves, we now wear wool bandanas. Yes, you heard that right – more precisely, it's about a copy like this, for example from Zara or Massimo Dutti:

How do you wear the scarf?

The bandanas are also called triangular scarves and, in contrast to conventional scarves, have the shape of an elongated triangle, as the name suggests. They often have a button or slit, which offers numerous binding options. No matter whether you simply tie it around your neck, wear it as a loop or casually pull the bandana to the side – it remains an eye-catcher and, thanks to the wool, is a sensible, warm alternative to the traditional scarf. It can also be perfectly styled when pulled over the head in baklava style.

Styling tips for the wool bandana

If you want to add a cooler touch to your outfit, choose an oversized fit. Thick coats, boots and especially chunky accessories are ideal. If you like it more classic, you would prefer a fitted coat, skirts, thick tights and delicate jewelry. Fashion professionals know that winter is all about layering, i.e. the right layers of clothing. But even in spring, unlike the scarf, the it-piece will not disappear from the scene because, despite the wool, it remains thinner than a tightly knitted wool scarf – it is a real all-rounder. No matter how you combine the wool bandana, it remains a cool alternative to the scarf and definitely brings variety to your winter wardrobe.
