What outfits go with bandanas:

A bandana can be worn in any setting ranging from casual to strictly formal outfits. Bandanas as neckbands and neckties are more suited for dressier outfits. Whereas bandanas as headbands and headwraps are suited for casual outfits. The scoutmaster or cowboy bandanas can elevate your smart casual outfits by adding a pop of color to the ensemble. A minimal tee shirt with jeans or shorts looks can be spiced up by adding a fancy bandana to the equation. Outfits with button-downs, blazers, and leather jackets can be jazzed up by wearing a bandana as a neckband or necktie. A casual tee or tank top outfit can be made more interesting by adding a bandana as a headband to the outfit.

When should you wear a bandana:

You can nail the bandana look in any situation, provided that you choose the correct type of bandana style. A headband bandana is stylish in casual situations but it won’t look as good with dressier outfits. For smart dressing use the bandana as a neckband or a necktie, over the collar or under the collar. The cowboy or scarf style of the bandana looks great in every situation, it specifically looks stylish with smart casual outfits.

Making a bandana look better on you:

A bandana is often used to add a pop of color to the outfit. You can make it look better by matching it with a tee, tank top, or jacket when wearing it as a headband. It can be matched with the pants, for example, a blue bandana would look great with blue jeans, and a bandana in earthy tones will look stylish as a headband with khakis. When using it as a necktie or neckband keep it well-folded and sleek for a polished look, the knots should be nice and tight.
