I bet you had no idea how versatile a bandana could be!

Tying it around your neck or forehead is well and good. But this tiny piece of cloth has many more tricks up its sleeve. Here are three alternative styling tips.
You’ve probably worn this small paisley print foulard around your neck yourself. Perhaps you used it to give your face mask a decorative layer. But let’s not think back on that, ok? It’s always best to look ahead anyway – to a future full of accessory adventures. And the bandana is totally up for those.
A twist on the classic
Just because it’s the obvious choice doesn’t mean there’s anything wrong with it. Content creator Miguel also wears his bandana around his neck. Not folded into a triangle like most people would, but rolled up with the knot facing forward. And so, the piece of cloth becomes a kind of fabric necklace, turning an old classic into a new favourite.
A nice addition to your waistband
If you loop a belt – or even a shoelace, for that matter – through your waistband, no one will bat an eyelid. Been there, done that, seen it a million times. A colourful bandana dangling from your trousers, however, is likely to turn heads. Colour coordinated with the rest of your outfit, the waistband bandana is a casual detail that will turn your look into something special.
A certain je ne sais quoi for your bag
As with your trousers, the bandana will also create an eye-catching effect on the handle of your bag. Whether you change it with every outfit or stick to one go-to model – you’re guaranteed to create visual variety or give your look a personal touch. All with the help of the bandana.
Feel like experimenting? Go for it!
All hacks naturally also work with the original Glarnertüechli – cotton triangles from Switzerland’s canton of Glarus.
