We believe a well-chosen pop of colour is a great way to take your look from ‘thrown together’ to put together. How often have you seen an eye-catching outfit only to realise that the individual elements are simple – classic, even – and it’s the accessory that really gives it the edge?
From a statement belt to a patterned scarf, to a jaunty pocket square, we believe that colourful accessories are the key to elevating an everyday look.
Here, we’ve put together a men’s guide to colour, using some of our favourite examples of men’s style with a colourful twist. Whether you’re a men’s colour novice or a guy in-the-know, these simple accessories will get you noticed for all the right reasons.
The wallet
Ok, we may be biased here. But your wallet travels with you making multiple appearances every day, so why not make it part a statement? It can be a great way to express personal style while simultaneously making paying the bills a bit more stylish.
In MYWALIT’s new men’s range you’ll find classic bi-folds and tri-folds (the popular choice for everyday) as well as zip-around styles for that added element of security. If you’re a frequent flyer you might opt for a passport wallet.
They are all available in brand new block colours in bold combos such as Black-Orange (as seen above), Brown-Yellow and Plum-Caribbean. If you’re just starting to dip your toes into the world of colour, our Tan-Olive and Black-Blue is a great place to start.
The socks
Up next in our guide is the seemingly humble sock. Too often overlooked as an accessory, socks have the power to make (or break) a look.
Whether you go for stripes, spots or block colour, it’s a simple and easy way to show you you’ve put some thought into what you’re wearing.
When paired with workwear, statement socks are ideal for injecting a little flair to the standard suit. And when you’re off duty, they’re a fun way to express your personality through colour!
The bag
The man bag is here to stay. Season after season, men’s fashion bags are becoming more mainstream and less of a phenomenon seen only on the runway. But the emphasis is often on work – how to find the perfect work bag (you can see our article on the subject here).
With more men’s bag styles available, this little-considered accessory is becoming a fashion must for down-time too.
Enter the sling bag.
It’s hands-free (still the style of choice among men), a practical size for weekend essentials and stylish to boot. Check out MYWALIT’s offerings in stylish soft leather with subtle colour details or in durable canvas in bold burnt orange or neutral olive.
