Yellow Accessory Recipes for Outfits that Won’t Sour

Wearing yellow often ends in cautionary tales of sartorial missteps. This bright color can overpower any palate and leave your outfit with a sour aftertaste. But learning how to incorporate this vibrant tint can be a recipe for stylish success. Balance the sunny shade with dark and subdued hues or let the brightness blend with already amped up outfits. When you slowly incorporate yellow with simple accessories your outfit is sure to come out just right.

Brighten the Blue

Add zest to a conservative navy dress with an acid yellow statement necklace. The high neckline of a fit and flare frock will look ladylike, while a bold necklace will bring some flavor.

Butter up a Beige Dress

A little lemon goes a long way in an otherwise neutral ensemble. Belt down a beige dress with a neon belt for a fresh pop of color.

A Dash of Yellow and Sprinkle of Pink

Yellow accessories that sprinkle turquoises, pinks and golds into the mix will pair better with black. A long black maxi dress is the ideal canvas for piling on the jewelry.

Squeeze in a Little Citrus

For a juicy addition to an orange dress, consider pairing an equally tangy yellow printed scarf. Tie your hair up with your hankerchief in the heat or wrap it around your neck for an extra layer on a cool night out.

Add a Dash of Mustard

Spice up your work wardrobe with a handbag that sets you apart. A mustard yellow is classic enough to be corporate but isn’t as boring as black. Wear it with your gray or blue suits for a perfect pairing.

Don’t let a yellow misstep sour your take on this sweet color. Let your yellow be loud when you combine it into your outfit in small doses of statement accessories.

Lemony yellows to golden mustard tones, it's time to cook up some style with yellow accessories.
