Our Favorite Warm-Weather Accessories
Earrings
Your jewelry box is the first place to turn to when you’re looking to add a bit of sparkle and shine to your look. Jewelry helps pull together an outfit, whether your taste leans towards understated or bold.
Every year, earrings seem to get bigger and bolder. A pair of fun, statement earrings can completely elevate even the simplest of outfits. Bold earrings are the perfect summer accessory to add a lot of interest to your outfit without layering on a ton of pieces.
Just because big earrings are in doesn’t mean you have to follow that trend. Studs or small hoops are a timeless accessory staple that will never go out of style. They are so versatile! They're the perfect accessory because you can wear them with literally anything. Bold and big or simple and subtle, earrings can make a big impact on your summertime outfit!
Bags
With so much beautiful, sunny weather coming soon, you’ll want to soak up as much sun as possible. You’ll need a rotation of reliable bags for on-the-go summer fun! From beach bags to vibrantly-colored statement pieces, to functional commuter totes — bags are definitely one of the hottest trends for summer accessories.
If you’re looking for style inspo straight from the runways of fashion week, we’ve got the bag for you! Handcrafted bags for the beach are the “it” accessory of the summer. Made from natural fabrics, crochet and beaded bags are effortlessly chic. Throw your shades and sunblock in your bag and you’re ready to hit the beach!
Let your bag match your vibe with a neon accent bag. Bright, vibrant hues are a great way to add a pop of color and make your look stand out. Perfect for sizzling hot summer nights!
Who says you can’t make a fashion statement on your way to work? For the weekday commute, grab a roomy tote bag. Work bags are not one size fits all. You need it to do a lot of things at once, like accommodate your laptop and your gym shoes, all while looking professional and stylish at the same time. Functional fashion bags are a necessary summer accessory for boss babes!
Footwear
Shoes, unlike other accessories, can’t be skipped. You need to wear shoes daily, at least for a portion of the day. That’s why it’s so important to have a few good pairs of everyday shoes. Plain white sneakers, earth-toned sandals, or a pair of black sandals are essential. While shoes are a necessity, they can be so much more than functional. A pair of shoes with a pop of color or a bold pattern are great summer accessories.
Colorful or patterned sandals are all the rage during the summer months. But they come with their own set of challenges. Styling them can be difficult, as clashing colors or prints is never a good look. Prints and patterns can be tricky. The best way to match your prints is to pick one solid color out of the pattern. Then make that the main color for the rest of your outfit.
Trendy braided heels are a gorgeous summer accessory. They pair well with dresses, rompers, or jumpsuits. We love the simplicity of neutral tones mixed to create a beautifully patterned shoe. For occasions when you need to step up your style, try a sandal with a heel.
Hats
Hats are an accessory that are stylish and functional at the same time. Hats help to protect our skin and eyes from the sun’s harmful rays while being the perfect finishing touch! A floppy, oversized hat adds an element of drama to any look. A simple baseball cap perfectly completes a sporty style. Hats are one of our favorite accessories because there is sure to be one to capture your style.
