There are certain garments and accessories that just feel right year after year. For me, the scarf is one of them. It's personal, creative, and incredibly versatile – and perhaps that's why I love hand-picking scarves for More Malmo.
A scarf isn't just about staying warm. It can elevate a simple outfit, add color to a neutral look, and help you express who you are. I love how the same scarf can feel completely different depending on how you wear it.
Around the neck – timeless and simple
The classic way always works. A soft scarf tied around the neck immediately gives a more thoughtful feel, whether you're wearing jeans and a t-shirt or an elegant coat. Sometimes, just that little pop of color is enough to make the whole outfit come alive.
In the hair – relaxed and creative
A scarf in the hair gives a personal and slightly bohemian feel that I love. Tie it around a ponytail, use it as a headband, or braid it into your hair. Perfect for sunny days or when you want to feel a little extra creative in everyday life.
On the bag – new life for old favorites
One of my favorite tricks is to tie a scarf around the handle of a bag. It's such a simple way to create something new from something you already own. Suddenly, the bag feels more personal, colorful, and unique.
As a shawl over the shoulders
I often use larger scarves as a light shawl. Perfect for cool summer evenings, when traveling, or over a simple dress. It gives a soft and feminine feel while still being relaxed.
As a belt or top
The great thing about scarves is that they allow for creativity. A larger scarf can become a summery top on vacation or be used as a belt to accentuate the waist and add more color and life to an outfit.
My favorites – scarves from Linda Pabst
Something I truly love in the store are the soft cotton scarves from Linda Pabst. They are full of color, detail, and personality – almost like little works of art to wear. I love how her designs feel both playful and warm, while the scarves are incredibly comfortable to wear thanks to the soft cotton.
They work equally well around the neck, in the hair, or over the shoulders, and are perfect for those who want to wear something that feels a little more personal and unique.
A way to show personality
What I love most about scarves is that they never feel impersonal. You wear them in your own way. A little loose and relaxed, elegantly tied, or colorful and bold. There's no right or wrong.
That's exactly what I want More Malmo to be about – daring to wear color, details, and personality in your own way.
So next time you feel your outfit is missing something – try a scarf. Sometimes it's the smallest detail that makes the biggest difference.
