Combine scarf and gloves in the cold season

Scarves and gloves are also becoming increasingly important as fashion accessories for men. Elegant gloves, scarves and hats are now a natural part of the everyday look. In the past, large woven scarves protected the entire shoulder and head area from snow, rain and moisture.


In fashion, the original scarf evolved into scarves, hats and gloves. They are among the most important winter accessories.

We show you how to get through the winter in style and combine scarves and gloves cleverly.

Contrasting or tone-on-tone: the right combination of scarves and gloves

Scarves, hats and gloves are versatile all-rounders that can be combined in a variety of ways. The following two combination options have proven to be a stylish addition to everyday looks in fall and winter:

Scarf and gloves are worn in a different, contrasting color as an eye-catcher to the rest of the outfit.

Both items of clothing complement the outfit tone-on-tone.

Both combination options have their advantages. High-contrast men's gloves are suitable for you if you like to add small but eye-catching accents. However, a little finesse is required to ensure that your outfit goes down well in everyday life. You should make sure to combine your scarf and gloves in an identical or similar color.

If you wear two different extravagant colors with the rest of your look, your outfit will look unintentionally artificial and overloaded. Are you the type of person who likes harmony and balance? Then scarves and gloves that go tone-on-tone with your coat or winter jacket will look good.

Which of the two options suits you best depends on your personal style. However, you can use your own vein color as a guide when choosing a color. Bluish veins are more suited to cool shades such as blue, gray and purple. If you tend to have greenish veins, warm colors such as red, orange and green will suit you better.

Combine dark gloves with dark scarves

Gloves and scarves in dark shades have become firmly established in men's fashion. They discreetly emphasize your personal style without looking obtrusive or overloaded. At the same time, they can be combined in a variety of ways with both a relaxed office look and a casual leisure outfit.

For example, grey men's gloves and men's scarves in the same color are suitable for (almost) every occasion. As soon as an official event is due, black gloves and scarves made of silk or cashmere are the perfect companions. In contrast to sporting or formal occasions, accessories play a more functional role at official events.

Don't want to go too over the top in your free time, but still want a bolder combination? Then combine a dark blue coat with a gray scarf and leather gloves. You can also wear beige shades in particular with subtle, gray-black winter accessories. For example, a light gray scarf looks great with a camel coat. For a comfortable outfit, you can also opt for a plaid wool scarf with a caban jacket.

How to combine contrasting shades with style

Whether orange, mustard yellow or mint green: colorful accessories for men offer a welcome change in winter. They are perfect for standing out from the crowd. At the same time, the vibrant colors easily chase away any winter blues.

ARE YOU LOOKING FOR GREAT COMBINATIONS THAT YOU CAN WEAR TO A SUNDAY LUNCH WITH FRIENDS WITH A CLEAR CONSCIENCE? THEN START BY COMBINING A SIMPLE TONE-ON-TONE OUTFIT WITH A COLORFUL EYE-CATCHER

For example, you can choose a blue, yellow or red scarf and wear it with a black outfit. For festive occasions, it is advisable to choose more classic, elegant colors such as silver or gold. Although these create a color contrast, they still underline your fashion sense.

Conclusion: sporty, casual or elegant combinations

Available in many different colors and designs, scarves and gloves are an effective way to spice up your winter wardrobe. At the weekend, both items of clothing can also be worn with your favorite jeans. At work, a simple combination of dark cashmere or merino wool goes down well.

If you are looking for a functional scarf for sports, a comfortable but warm tubular scarf made of cotton or acrylic is a casual partner. As far as contrasts with your outfit are concerned, you can be bold - as long as the material of the scarf and gloves harmonize with each other.
