One might probably find a handkerchief just the simple cloth used for wiping nose and might not even consider it as part of a wardrobe. The handkerchief just remains hidden on the pockets until it is needed for wiping.

In fashion, accessories are used to complement and spice up one’s wardrobe. The most common would be jewelries such as earrings, necklaces, and bangles. But these accessories may be too much if worn for simple everyday clothing such as shirts and jeans. As a substitute, the handkerchief can be used as a new accessory to glamorize a simple outfit for less.

The handkerchief can be used as a necklace or bangle to match an outfit. It is simply folded diagonally and rolled up according to the desired thickness. As a necklace, it is wrapped around the neck loosely or a bit snug and tied with a square knot or any preferred knot. The end product is a necklace handkerchief that would go well with plain colored shirts and jeans. Usually, plain colored shirts would match with handkerchiefs with printed design. For example, a white round or V-neck shirt would really look great with a necklace handkerchief of plaid print that has white bands. Another way to use a rolled handkerchief is by tying it snug around the wrist as a wristlet. Typically, these handkerchief wristlets are trademark accessories of rock band members. So if one desires to put a hint of rock star appeal in his wardrobe, a handkerchief wristlet would do the job. For girls, these rolled handkerchiefs would give a boyish flavor on their girlish outfits. And only one thing to remember, mix and match handkerchiefs and shirts but the plain colors should always go with the printed ones or a combination of hues.
