Whatever your dressing sense may be, whether you are someone who has been constantly looking to bring simple changes in your wardrobe or just want to look like a femme fatale at work, turn to accessories to nail that look. While trying to dress up chic for work may seem like a workout, it isn’t. A few additions can completely change your overall look and confidence. Choose from an array of scarves, hoops, belts, hats, sunnies, tote bags, gold chains, watches, and hair accessories.
If the person in you lives for both fashion and work, then there is no shame in going wild for these essentials. Level up your accessory game by investing in these and watch as you turn heads.
Scarves
If you are under the impression that scarves serve one purpose – we have news for you. Truth be told, scarves are no longer limited to your neck. They can be in your hair like a hair accessory, or just be tied around your handbag bag for a dose of chic. On a day when the sun decides to go big, opt for a silk scarf, and on colder nights try looping in snood scarves around your neck. Whether you choose an abstract print or a solid hue – it’ll get the job done either way, whilst looking classy.
A Classic Watch
You can never go wrong with a classic watch – be it a vintage time piece or a well rounded analogue watch; this investment will be well worth your money. Although, we do recommend avoiding digital watches due to their loud colour palette and structural look which may often be perceived as boring. An analogue watch in a gold or silver tone is seldom a letdown. We’re thinking Casio, Tissot, and Seiko to name a few.
Sunglasses
Whether you decide to rest them on eyes or over your head, a pair of sunnies is a must. You can choose to rock them at a club, or at a lounge; at the beach or while strolling through the cobbled streets of Rome, they’re an accessory you simply shouldn’t step out without. The best part? There’s something for every occasion, so you’re spoilt for choice. Sunnies add an extra oomph to an otherwise basic outfit so jazz up your overall look with a nice pair.
A Fitting Belt
Belts do more than keeping your pants from kissing the ground. Choose from a classic black, brown or even tan – a sleek leather belt adds an extra layer to your outfit. The current generation of belts has transcended from basic sleek to corset, chain, braided, and more. You can choose to play dress up and match any of these to complete your look and be a solid 10/10.
Hats
Don’t keep them reserved for your beach trips, because it does more than just block the sun. A trendy hat can make you stand out in the crowd and make a style statement when paired with the right pieces. They also add a sense of mystery to the overall look, so go ahead and turn some heads. Did we mention? They’re also a solid ‘old money’ look.
Hair Accessories
Ditch the messy bun or ponytail for a change try on some newbie hair accessories. Every day is a new hair day with bow barrette clips, tiaras, beautiful Korean clips, and more. If you love a classic like us, we do recommend investing in a good claw clip.
Hoop Earrings
Hoops are all the rage – from plush huggies to seriously chunky hoops, you can switch things up according to your mood. When partying, you can opt for a chunkier, heavier hoop that will highlight your snazzy outfit, and if you’re on your way to cracking a serious business deal, we recommend the itty bitty huggies that make the overall look crisp. Small and embellished, they’re perfect for any corporate situation that life throws at you.
Tote Bags
The mother of all bags – you never never go wrong with a Tote. The best part? They really just get along well with almost anything and anyone. Going to the office donning formals? Tote bag. Dressed casually in wide-leg jeans and shirt? Tote bag. Out for a coffee/grocery run? Tote bag. These beauties are absolute life savers with ample space and the ‘I can make any attire better’ attitude.
Gold Or Silver Chain
When in doubt, add a gold or silver chain to look chic and elegant. While we understand that finding the perfect neckpiece for every occasion is bit of a task, you can never go wrong with a paperclip chain to add a bit of glam to your final look. We recommend adding an adorable pendant, or just opt for a charm necklace and you’re ready to slay.
