HOW TO WEAR COLORFUL ACCESSORIES
By Lakeisha Goedluck, December 9, 2018
Ditch your dreary duds, peeps. This season, it’s all about rocking threads in standout shades. But if you’re not feeling bold enough to layer up with an emergency-orange puffer jacket, don’t worry — just chuck on a bold scarf instead. In delightfully fluorescent hues, here’s how to flavor up your ’fits with super-colorful accessories this winter.
Standout scarf
Alright, so if the voluminous emergency-orange puffer jacket is too much for your liking, how about throwing on a scarf in this season’s most coveted hue? It’ll draw attention to your get-up without being too showy, trust. Just remember to stick to subtle shades when it comes to the rest of your ensemble. A cream Harrington jacket, black side-stripe pants and matching lace-up boots is where it’s at.
Corresponding colors
Now, there’s no better way to prove your sartorial prowess than by showing off your color-matching gear. Start off with an eye-catching knit (the type that would get your grandmother's approval) and choose complementary accessories. As you can see here, this dude's bright purple The North Face fanny pack, lilac beanie, lawn-green Converse and dusky-pink scarf all correspond to the stripes on his sweater. Too steezy.

Popping plaids
When it comes to arresting patterns, plaid is way up there. So, for FW18, take it that step further and select a tartan accessory in an ultra-vibrant color. As we said before, it's best to keep the rest of your 'fit laid-back when donning an in-your-face-style scarf. A slick half-zip, check-print pants (minimalism is key here) and clean-white Reeboks should do the trick.
