When is Fergie due? We found the very pregnant Black Eyed Peas vocalist at the premiere of ‘Scenic Route’ the other day wearing a scarf belt.

She attended the event with her gorgeous hunk of a husband, Josh Duhamel, and the two looked seriously cute as they walked the red carpet.

Despite the swollen belly, Fergie stayed true to her rocker chick style by wearing an all-black outfit styled with a grey studded leather jacket.

She also gave the look a little bit of drama by wrapping a printed scarf around her hips, essentially turning it into a scarf belt with a cascading sash on one side.

The add-on was effective in making her look less pregnant. And as strange as it may sound, she seemed more put together with it. All we can say is, it was an illusion trick that doubled as an accessory! (and vise versa…)

What about you, do you occasionally use your scarf as a belt? It’s actually one way to add a little bit of flair into a boring outfit. You can use a long stretchy scarf to work the belt, or grab a soft and thin squarish one and fold it diagonally.

If you don’t have a square scarf, a rectangular one will do. Just don’t forget to fold it diagonally so you use the bias part of the fabric. These scarves from Revolve will work great if you want to steal Fergie’s look:
