One of the first people to help bring back the bandanna was We Wore What's Danielle Bernstein. We spotted her trying the trend as far back as last Summer.

Tucked In
The Man Repeller's Leandra Medine is also a fan. She likes to tuck hers into her shirt, whether it's a turtleneck or a button-down.

Oversize
Kendall Jenner was snapped by photographers wearing a bandanna-printed scarf, adding some warmth and flair to her Winter outfit.
With Overalls
It can be tricky to accessorize overalls, but where a statement necklace may seem out of place, a bandanna can give a look a bit of extra, casual oomph.
With a White Shirt
It doesn't have to be paisley print — any type of square will do.
With a Leather Jacket
Complete your outfit with a wide-brimmed hat and a stack of rings. Street style star, here you come.
With a Blazer
The addition of a bandanna can add a little edge to an otherwise polished and professional ensemble.
As a Neckerchief
You can also roll it up and tie it around your neck, Grease style.
The Real-Girl Way
Anyone can pull off the bandanna — even our fashion team is giving it a try.
