“I Have Nothing To Wear!”… We Know That’s a Lie!
It doesn’t take a lot to transform an outfit. Most of the time our biggest issue is that we overthink. We overthink if this matches with that or if what we’re wearing is “on trend” and before you know it we’re back at square one saying “I have nothing to wear!” We know that’s a lie! In fact it's so simple to take an outfit from zero to one-hundred with a simple accessory. Here’s some of our favorite accessories that are guaranteed to elevate any outfit, satisfaction guaranteed.
Logo Belt
Adding a belt to an outfit can easily elevate your look instantly. You simply have to find the one that you like and know how to style it properly. You can instantly transform a sweater-and-jeans combo into high style by adding a belt around the waist. Try a logo belt from your favorite luxury brand or try one of our favorites like the MCM Flat “M” Reversible Belt or the Salvatore Ferragamo Double Gancio Leather Belt.
Trendy Headgear
This summer, bucket hats have made their way back onto the scene. We’re seeing celebrities and models hit the summer streets in such fun and flirty bucket hats and we think it's a great idea to mix it up a bit and add some color to our look. We love this classic Heavy Check Bucket Hat from Burberry. This classic print on this unconventional accessory makes it feel fun and fresh. We also love this black and white bucket hat from Off-White. The Logo Rain Bucket Hat is sleek and the nylon material is a fun alternative material guaranteed to keep any rain away from the face and hair.
Masks on or off?
Yes, lots of things are opening up again but masks are still required in some settings so it's best to always be prepared and make sure you have one in your bag. Doesn’t mean we have to wear those itchy disposable masks but rather we want our mask to have some serious style. This Adult Baroque & Polka Dot Print Contoured Mask from Dolce & Gabbana really takes the cake. It’s got a fun print (or two) and lined with cotton so it’s great for your face and it's sure to add that extra something to any outfit.
Cash, cards and Balenciaga
Have you noticed that it doesn’t take crazy large additions to instantly elevate your look? The devil is in the details! That’s why this insanely chic and cute cardholder from Balenciaga is definitely in our shopping cart. This bright pop of electric pink may be that little add of color that your look is lacking. The Cash Logo Leather Cardholder is perfect for the bare necessities - cash and credit cards that is.
Don’t Discount the Socks
Long gone are the days when we would have fun with crazy socks in all sorts of colors and patterns...or so we thought. Those days are still here with the Burberry Icon Stripe Blend Ankle Socks. Style these with loafers, sneakers or even your favorite pair of Birkenstocks. The classic Burberry color palette will instantly let everyone you encounter know you have impeccable taste and still like to have fun.
Hair!
Hair accessories are a lost art. Well at least we think so. Sometimes it's not what you’re wearing but what you’re not wearing. In this case, we like to add some zest to our hair in the simplest of ways and this item is a great 2-for-1. The Salvatore Ferragamo Silk Scarf Scrunchie is not only perfect for getting your hair out of your face in the summer heat but you can also wear it around your wrist as a cute bracelet.
The Bling Ring
Some of these items haven’t been the most obvious solutions for a drab outfit but this one is. We use our hands for so many things, in fact it's one of the most used body parts we have. We use our hands to reach for things, to talk and we’re constantly fidgeting with them, so accessorizing with rings or even bracelets is an easy way to bring positive attention to them. Make ‘em look glam and it will greatly improve any outfit. Try a set of stackable rings like this set from 8 Other Reasons. The Draya Michele Set of 7 Stacking Crystal Rings will immediately add some shine and sparkle to your hands which will dramatically improve your overall look. So, what are some of your favorite accessories from this list? Let us know your favorite accessories that make you feel like a million bucks. Until next time.
