The many uses of The Sarong

Colourful Beach Sarongs are an essential summer accessory and are a great excuse to carry around a vibrant splash of colour. But here we explain why you do not necessarily need to be going away to a distant tropical shore just to own one. They are extremely versatile and frankly - Irresistable! So the question is no longer, How to wear a sarong? But instead.... What are the many uses of a Sarong?! Below are just a few suggestions:

1. In hot weather especially use instead of your usual bath towel when you get out of the shower. Simply slip it around you and carry on about your business around the home without the need for getting dressed.

2. Take it with you on picnics and to parks and festivals, they are great to sit on and take up so little space in your bag.

3. Fold in a groovy way and tie into a skirt, perhaps over leggings if you wish, then put on a vest top and there you have a new outfit.

4. Got long hair or dreadlocks, or just want a colourful head piece? then wrap around your hair and head in a turban sort of way and style your sarong into a unique head scarf anyhow you please.

5. Need some colour and decoration on your walls and something with a little texture? then drape onto walls or ceilings using small nails or pins (depending on the consistency of your walls and who of course owns them!) to create a crazy behemian atmosphere. Similarly if you have a boring chair, sofa or table then why not use as throws about the home.

6. Going to a distant tropical or mediterranean shore, plush spa pool or the English Riviera?! Then it is of course absolutely vital that you have a sarong with you. Wrap it around you as you smooch out of the ocean or pool and thow around you in a lazy summers way prior to venturing into the bar. Do not limit to just wearing the Sarong though - use it equally for sitting on at the beach! It weighs a lot less than a beach towel, dries much quicker and fits snuggly into your beach bag.

7. Sarongs also make fabulous scarves and shawls, be it on a slightly breezy summers evening when you find your sarong randomly there in your bag - or in the bleakest of winter days. Use your sarong to add that ray of colour and 'je ne sais quoi' to your outfit by wrapping effortlessly around your neck and shoulders.

8. And when you really have totaly exhausted your sarong please re-cycle! cut into pieces and use as dish cloths or for polishing or take to a textile recycling facility.

Got any other ideas?!.......

Groovy Grey with Pink or Blue Lurex 80s Leg Warmers

NEW! Fabulous subtle grey LEG WARMERS with Bold Pink Fuscia and Electric Blue LUREX. This new colourway has just arrived at Coconut Hut and is a great addition to our huge range of funky legwarmers already available.



The overall look is quite subtle with a definite 80s edge and is a great alternative to our existing Black leg warmers with Pink or Blue lurex. As colours go, yes we all know that the Grey with Pink lurex would be a massive success... Grey and pink are classic!


BUT... Grey with Blue? this is a little more rare and well.... The result is ELECTRIFYING! The electric blue lurex really stands out against the grey and looks Dazzling :) Check out the Funky Leg Warmers for yourself!

Rainbow Socks


Yes stripey Classic Rainbow hippie socks have been around for ages and will continue to be around for years and years to come and yes we stock them!!

We have Rainbow Socks in many different colour combinations from classic rainbow to rasta and tropical rainbow to golden sunset. They are a popular classic and it doesn't stop there... we also have 2 colour stripey rainbow styles as well as UV Neon rainbow styles. So you can be sure to get yours from Coconut Hut xxx
