The Chic New Way to Wear a Silk Scarf this Summer? Tied Around Your Waist

Alexa chung wears a silk scarf on her waist.

As tempting as it may be to hit the shops when the desire for a fresh look arises, it's not the most sustainable option—for the earth or the wallet. That's why, as a fashion editor, I'm a big fan of trends that don't require buying something new, but encourage you to "shop" your existing wardrobe instead.

That might come in the form of hacking an old pair of jeans into jorts to nail the denim silhouette of the season, digging out the Converse and Adidas shorts of your teenage years (yes, they're back), or simply styling an existing favourite in an unexpected way—like layering a lace slip dress over trousers, or rocking an oversize polo shirt as a beach cover-up.
