Top 5 Summer Accessories

When people think of fashion, their minds often jump straight to clothes or shoes, but accessories are truly the easiest and best way to give your summertime outfits polish and personality.  Here’s five must-have summer accessories to scoop up this season!

1. The Cuff

Cuff Bracelet

Each season brings a new variation on the classic cuff (circa the Ancient Egyptian times). There are geometric cuffs, solid cuffs, and even animal shaped cuffs. Cuff bracelets are a great statement piece to pair with more dramatic blouses and dresses that need minimal accessories. Cuffs are also a great summer accessory choice because they require the arms to be exposed.

2. The Long Necklace

Long necklaces are extremely versatile because they can be worn with casual as well as more polished looks.  They are often simple in design with one pendant at the bottom or have small design elements spaced around a long chain.  The minimalist aspect of long necklaces makes them a perfect summer accessory, when the goal is to look relaxed, effortless, and never overdone.  Choose a long necklace to complement maxi dresses as well as more tailored work looks.

3. The Colored Statement Necklace

A brightly colored statement necklace can be the icing on the cake for a fun summertime look.  Colors such as coral, turquoise and other blues channel a seaside vibe that is perfect for summer, and looks amazing paired with crisp white tops and dresses.  When wearing a bold statement necklace, keep other jewelry to a minimum so the necklace remains the focal point of your outfit.

Stud earrings are the ultimate summer accessory.  Why?  They go with everything and are ideal for active days doing sports or at the beach.  Studs tend to be more casual but still add that little extra sparkle to pull together your look.  For daytime, opt for small simple studs, and at night, switch it up to a larger jeweled version.

Scarves have traditionally been associated with colder seasons, but having a lightweight, breezy printed scarf is a necessity in your summer accessory collection.  Warm weather scarves are typically lightly colored with a delicate pattern or stripe.  An eye-catching scarf is a great accessory choice to pair with a lightweight sundress or a casual tee and crisp white skinny jeans.
