One vintage scarf, worn two ways (and it's not how you'd expect)

 

I bought this vintage Dior scarf from the Vancouver-based consignment store Turnabout a few years ago. 

I loved it — and couldn't believe someone had consigned it, to be honest. But, admittedly, I haven't worn it all that much since I purchased it.

That is, until I was reading a recent edition of InStyle magazine and I came across a for/against article discussing the return of scarves worn as a top. Safe to say, I immediately thought of this Dior scarf. 

So, here are two ways that I've since styled this pre-loved piece: As a belt to add some colour and print to an otherwise-basic all-black outfit; and as a top, worn under a blazer.

I actually also wore it tucked into a pair of high-waisted trousers and loved the look. It felt very upscale vacation ... not that there's a lot of that going on at the moment. 

Where are you on this trend? Would you wear a scarf as a top? Or a belt? I know I'm looking forward to the summer  when I can explore this trend a little bit more.
