We may have blown through full-on fringe moments, cowboy-inspired head wear and our fair share of suede between the winter and spring months, but for summer, it&#8217;s all about working in that classic paisley print in the bandana.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why we love bandanas<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><em>It&#8217;s convenient.<\/em> Small enough to tie into your outfit on even the warmest of days, this&nbsp;essential summer trend piece is lightweight, versatile and most importantly, easy to find. You can snag the old-school favorite at your local Rite Aid and 99 cent store or splurge a few extra bucks and go for a higher end version.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>It&#8217;s practical.<\/em> Around the&nbsp;neck, on a bag, or in the&nbsp;hair, this affordable accessory has been worn for centuries. We know the bandana today mostly for its All-American, working-class roots. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And then, of course,&nbsp;Hollywood plays up&nbsp;the bandana&#8217;s rugged personality by pairing them with dashing fictional-movie cowboys.&nbsp;The sign of a traveler, in its ranching and exploring heyday, the bandana saved the day as a tourniquet, a sling, a headband, shade from the heat and coverage from dust and more. <a class=\"wpil_keyword_link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.thebudgetfashionista.com\/archive\/alexa-chung-fashion-steal-her-style\/\" title=\"Alexa Chung fashion: Steal her style\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\" data-wpil-monitor-id=\"844\">Bandanas<\/a> are the unsung heroes of westerns<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to wear a bandana<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"450\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thebudgetfashionista.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/1548618291348.jpeg\" alt=\"Girl wearing t shirt and bandana around her neck\" class=\"wp-image-123865\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thebudgetfashionista.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/1548618291348.jpeg 450w, https:\/\/www.thebudgetfashionista.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/1548618291348-200x300.jpeg 200w, https:\/\/www.thebudgetfashionista.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/1548618291348-300x450.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Today&#8217;s city slickers have adopted the tradition&#8211;and put their own spin on it&#8211;wearing it as a kerchief around the neck, rolled and tied like a Cub Scout, accessorized on the arms, and even around the ankles. Lately, we&#8217;ve seen it on bloggers and starlet celebs like Vanessa Hudgens, but we&#8217;d be lying if we said we hadn&#8217;t wanted to give the ol&#8217; paisley a go, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Play up the Wrangler look with your favorite pair of jeans, or use it as a rugged finishing touch to offset an utterly feminine dress. Or, fasten&nbsp;it on your carryall, then tie it up into your hair later when you want to shake up your look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The basic bandana is the must-have multi-tasker that does it all, and effortlessly so. Make the most of this of-the-moment adornment with cool new knots and unique folds &#8212; the possibilities for making it all your own are endless<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"450\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thebudgetfashionista.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/1548618291350-450x450.jpeg\" alt=\"Red and blue bandana\" class=\"wp-image-123866\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thebudgetfashionista.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/1548618291350-450x450.jpeg 450w, https:\/\/www.thebudgetfashionista.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/1548618291350-150x150.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/www.thebudgetfashionista.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/1548618291350-300x300.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.thebudgetfashionista.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/1548618291350-65x65.jpeg 65w, https:\/\/www.thebudgetfashionista.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/1548618291350.jpeg 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><figcaption><a href=\"https:\/\/sovrn.co\/7fzkplp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Men&#8217;s 2 Pack Bandanas, $3.99, Target<span class=\"wpil-link-icon\" title=\"Link goes to external site.\" style=\"margin: 0 0 0 5px;\"><svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" style=\"height:16px; width:16px; fill:#000000; stroke:#000000; display:inline-block;\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:svg=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><g id=\"wpil-svg-outbound-7-icon-path\" fill=\"none\" clip-path=\"url(#clip0_31_188)\">\r\n                            <path d=\"M9.16724 14.8891L20.1672 3.88908\" stroke-linecap=\"round\"\/>\r\n                            <path d=\"M13.4497 3.53554L20.5208 3.53554L20.5208 10.6066\" stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\"\/>\r\n                            <path d=\"M17.5 13.5L17.5 16.26C17.5 17.4179 17.5 17.9968 17.2675 18.4359C17.0799 18.7902 16.7902 19.0799 16.4359 19.2675C15.9968 19.5 15.4179 19.5 14.26 19.5L7.74 19.5C6.58213 19.5 6.0032 19.5 5.56414 19.2675C5.20983 19.0799 4.92007 18.7902 4.73247 18.4359C4.5 17.9968 4.5 17.4179 4.5 16.26L4.5 9.74C4.5 8.58213 4.5 8.0032 4.73247 7.56414C4.92007 7.20983 5.20982 6.92007 5.56414 6.73247C6.0032 6.5 6.58213 6.5 7.74 6.5L11 6.5\" stroke-linecap=\"round\"\/>\r\n                        <\/g>\r\n                        <defs>\r\n                            <clipPath id=\"clip0_31_188\">\r\n                                <rect fill=\"white\" height=\"24\" width=\"24\"\/>\r\n                            <\/clipPath>\r\n                        <\/defs><\/svg><\/span><\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"293\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thebudgetfashionista.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/nordstrom-bandana-293x450.png\" alt=\"Silk bandana\" class=\"wp-image-123871\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thebudgetfashionista.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/nordstrom-bandana-293x450.png 293w, https:\/\/www.thebudgetfashionista.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/nordstrom-bandana-196x300.png 196w, https:\/\/www.thebudgetfashionista.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/nordstrom-bandana.png 378w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 293px) 100vw, 293px\" \/><figcaption><a href=\"https:\/\/sovrn.co\/oerpue5\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Madewell Silk Bandana, $24.50, Nordstrom<span class=\"wpil-link-icon\" title=\"Link goes to external site.\" style=\"margin: 0 0 0 5px;\"><svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" style=\"height:16px; width:16px; fill:#000000; stroke:#000000; display:inline-block;\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:svg=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><use href=\"#wpil-svg-outbound-7-icon-path\"><\/use><\/svg><\/span><\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>What&#8217;s your favorite bandana look for the summer?
