Have you ever fallen for a beautiful headband in a bright color, or a bag with a pattern that really speaks to you – but then hesitated? “It’s amazing… but will I use it?” It’s a common thought – and completely unnecessary, if you ask me.
At More Malmo, I'm passionate about finding accessories that make a difference – not just because they're sustainably produced and handpicked with care, but because they breathe new life into what you already have at home. Because you don't have to change your entire wardrobe to feel new. Sometimes a scarf is enough. A color. An unexpected detail that you wear with confidence.
Here are five tips on how to style a colorful accessory – and make it feel like an obvious part of your style:
1. Let the color speak
A strong color draws the eye – use it to your advantage! A saffron yellow rose in your ear, a cornflower blue scarf or a raspberry red bag instantly elevate an otherwise simple outfit in black, white or beige.
2. Match with lipstick or nails
You don't have to go all out – sometimes just a mix of tones is enough. A raspberry pink headband paired with a matching nail polish will do wonders for the overall look.
3. Play with contrasts
Dare to combine soft and hard. A romantic scarf from Linda Pabst with a leather jacket, a floral headband with a strict suit. It is often in the contrast that the magic occurs.
4. Think layer upon layer
A patterned kimono over jeans and a simple top? Suddenly the whole look feels well thought out. Use colorful details to add your own touch.
5. Start with the accessory
Reverse your mindset – choose the accessory first. Maybe it’s the bag from Keecie that sets the color palette for the day. It gives your outfit a new direction and makes styling more fun.
My vision with More Malmo is to inspire a slower, more personal fashion. One where you don't follow trends – but follow yourself. So the next time you're standing there hesitating: choose what makes you happy. Accessories aren't there to blend in. They're there to express yourself.
