How to tie a pareo?

The pareo, which first appeared in warm countries, today is almost a must-have accessory for going to the beach. After all, sometimes you don't want to put on clothes in the heat just to walk a few minutes and get to the beach. And after sunbathing with the use of various cosmetics, pareo will be just a godsend so as not to stain your clothes.

What girls can not think of to look elegant and stand out from the crowd - even tie a pareo in different ways. It is thanks to the ingenuity of girls that today there are many options to tie a pareo so as to become a real decoration of the beach.

With the help of simple manipulations, the pareo can be turned into a dress, skirt, swimsuit and even shorts.

Turning a pareo into a light beach dress is possible in the following ways:

1. Putting the pareo behind your back, you need to stretch the ends forward and, crossing them in the chest area, tie at the back in the neck area. This beach outfit will look different if, before crossing the edges of the pareos on the chest, tie them in a knot.

2. Having placed the pareo in front of you in length, you need to tie it around your neck. The second knot should be in the waist area.

3. Place the pareo behind your back and tie it in front of your chest. If the length permits, you can tie the ends of the pareo behind the back, then attention will be focused on the chest area highlighted with a scarf.

4. In order to add elegance to the image, you can tie a pareo on one shoulder. To do this, place one end of the pareo on the shoulder, the other end should be pulled close at hand and wrapped around the back, after which the ends of the pareo should be tied over the shoulder, on which the edge of the pareo remained.

5.Take a pareo and fold it in half so that the back half is about 15 cm longer than the front half. This protrusion must be bent forward to a shorter part. Then you need to wrap the pareo around the body and then tie it in a knot on the chest. The result is an interesting summer dress with a pleat in the front. You can design a skirt in the same way.

A very interesting and sophisticated outfit can turn out if you have two pareos at once.

You need to take the first pareo, circle it around the body in the armpit area and tie its ends on the other shoulder. Tie the second pareo in the same way over the first pareo and on the opposite side. This way of using pareos is called Nefertiti.

The first pareo should be wrapped around the chest and tied around the neck, the second pareo should be pulled from the back on both sides and tied in the chest area. This style of tying a pareo is called Balboa.

As in the previous method, you need to wrap your chest with the first pareo and tie it on your back, pull the second pareo from behind under your arms and tie its ends around your neck.

This method of tying two pareos at once looks very impressive and unusual. Both pareos must be folded diagonally, then tied together on one side and thrown over the neck. Then, in the waist area in front and behind, pareos should be fixed by tying them with knots. Pants of any style are good for such a beach outfit.

Perhaps the easiest and most popular way to use a pareo is to tie it instead of a skirt. Here are some options for a pareo skirt:

You just need to wrap the pareo around your hips, tie the ends in a knot and the skirt is ready. The knot can be tied at the hip or in the front, the length of such a skirt can also vary. It all depends on the imagination and the size of the pareo.

Having wrapped the pareo around your hips, you need to tuck the end into the resulting skirt. For the strength of such a structure, you can secure the end with a brooch in the color of a pareo. This version of a pareo skirt is perfect when you need to walk a short distance.

For a short skirt, you need to take a narrow and long pareo, or fold a wide one in half. Having fixed one edge on the thigh, you need to wrap the second edge around the hips, after which, on the second circle in front, twist the edge of the pareo and continue wrapping from behind, then fasten the tip by sliding it into the skirt from above.

To accentuate the tanned legs, the pareo can turn into not only a skirt, but also light shorts. To do this, tie a pareo on the back at the waist or hips, thread the remaining side of the pareo between the legs and tie its ends at the front at the waist.

In addition to the listed items of clothing, you can easily build an original top from pareos, and in several ways:

Having thrown the pareo over your head, you need to align the edges and cross it on the body, covering the chest with the straightened edges. The entire structure should be secured by tying the edges of the pareo behind the back.

First you need to fold the pareo diagonally to form a triangle. Tie the side of the fold line at the back at the waist. Divide the remaining corner of the triangle into two parts, cross them together and tie around the neck.

The upper ends of the pareo must be tied around the neck. Tie the lower ends on the back or, if the length of the pareo allows it, on the stomach. After that, you need to gently straighten the resulting top on the chest.

Having two scarves in your arsenal, you can also build a successful top model. To do this, fold each pair in half into a rectangle. Then, wrapping the body on one side, fasten the pareo on the opposite shoulder. Do the same with the second pareo on the other side.

With the help of a pareo, you can easily diversify your beach suit by making it look like a swimsuit. To do this, place the pareo in front of you in length and tie its ends on the neck or on the back in the chest area. The lower part of the pareo must be stretched back between the legs, and then raised from the back to the waist line and straighten the ends forward, tying them in a knot in front. You can complement such an unusual swimsuit with another pareo tied in the form of a skirt.

Taking note of these simple and at the same time original ways of tying a beach pareo, you can appear every day on vacation in a completely new, unlike anything else, an image created with the help of this accessory.

Pareo is used by girls not only to create unique looks on the beach. With the help of this simple device, you can easily hide figure flaws, highlighting the most beautiful places.

Those who want to cover their tummy need to choose options that hide this part of the body. Any options for free-style pareo beach dresses will be a godsend in this case.

For girls with small breasts, options with an accent in the form of knots on the chest line are perfect, or all kinds of tops that will balance the upper part with the hips.

For girls with narrow hips, options with a pareo skirt are the best fit. The emphasis on the lower body will distract from the volume of the chest and balance the figure.

For those girls who have a poorly readable waistline, you can resort to tricks and tie a contrasting silk ribbon like a belt on a pareo dress.

When choosing a pareo, you need to pay attention to the color of the existing swimsuit. Moreover, if you plan to wear it as a top, skirt or shorts, it should overlap in color with a swimsuit.

Girls who want to hide some flaws in their figure with the help of a pareo should give preference to a pareo made of less transparent fabric.

In order for a pareo to look elegant and well-groomed on the beach, it must have smooth, not skewed edges.

Below are some of the most successful pareos.

Pareo looks great as a skirt. Perfectly matched swimsuit and pareo colors make this look complete and well thought out. The accessory in the form of a massive bracelet is a perfect complement to a summer look.

Bright and clear pareo prints, from which the original summer dress was made, add elegance to the image. The pareo looks like a full-fledged summer outfit, in which you can easily walk along the coast on hot days.

A bright summer bag, wide-brimmed hat and sunglasses - all this, combined with a light and stylish pareo, represent the typical image of a girl on the beach.
