Pashmina Shawls... How to Tie a Shawl: A Step by Step Guide
Wearing a pashmina shawl will not only make you feel warm but also give you a stylish look. Even if they are simple, they still have capability to convert boring outfit into a definite fashion statement. A genuine pashmina shawl will cost a little bit more, but when you wear it, you will feel more comfort, beauty and elegance. As incredible as it may seem, there is more than one way to tie or wear your pashmina shawl. You can benefit from the greatest variety of pashmina shawls and find plenty of tips on how to wear it. Pashmina shawls aren't just worn for their looks, though their generous size will keep wearer cozy and comfortable throughout the cooler winter months.
Although the simple question of how to put on a shawl may seem extremely trivial to some of us, it can actually be a valid question for others. Imagine a person from a completely different culture, someone who has never seen or heard of a shawl. Naturally, that person would have no idea what it is for, more so how it should be used. Thus, this guide exists, for the people of the world who have their first encounters with shawls.
Steps to put on a shawl:
The first step is to spread it out and to rest it neatly on a flat surface
The second step is to try to crumple it width-wise to the thickness that you desire or until it looks rather voluminous
The third step is to take the middle and let it rest behind your neck while allowing the two ends to fall over and in front of your shoulders
Thus, you have finally completed the most basic way of how to put on a shawl.
After mastering those basic steps, you can start to add some flare to the way you put on your shawl. Instead of merely draping it over your shoulders, you can tie it into several knots or twist it into a pretzel-like shape. The following are the steps.
Putting on a shawl with flare:
One knot - take both ends of the shawl and tie them up in a knot. Put one end behind you and let the other end dangle in front of you
Twister - take both ends of the shawl and twists them around several times. You can place the twisted ends down your chest like a neck-tie or play around with it
Arm wrap - spread out the shawl and diagonally wrap it around your arm. Keep on wrapping it and fasten it with a clip at the end. The end product should look as if you have a sleeve on your arm
Leg wrap - just like the arm wrap but you do it on your leg. You may need a bigger shawl depending on how much you want your leg covered
As you can see, the ones mentioned above are merely samples of how to put on a shawl. From one idea, another can spring out so keep your imagination open and let all your creative juices flow to create your own unique look.

How can a guy tie a shawl around his neck stylishly?
I have a shawl. It is square shape but triangle when i fold it diagonally. How can i tie it around my neck so that it looks cool
i would say either wrap it around your neck tight like this http://manolomen.com/images/solouniko-origami-scarf.jpg or fold it into a triangle and tie it quite loose around your neck. cant find a picture of it like that...sort of like this but looser http://www.asos.com/Diesel/Diesel-Mandama-Bandana-Shape-Jersey-Scarf/Prod/pgeproduct.aspx?iid=387540&cid=6518&clr=Green&sh=0&pge=0&pgesize=20&sort=_None so its not as close to your neck at the fron.
