All The Accessories You Need This Spring

Accessories are often overlooked and can truly transform any outfit.  Including the right accessories can take an outfit from just okay to next-level amazing! Be sure to keep your eye out for some great accessories this season, including these 5 trends I’ve been seeing consistently:

1. Skinny Sunglasses

Ray-Ban Gradient Oval Sunglasses

Ray-Ban is always coming out with ubiquitous, cool girl sunglasses, and this pair is no exception. Whether you’re sunning it up at the beach or venturing out to a music festival this summer, you’ll look so chic in these shades.

Not sure if you want to invest in a new pair of sunglasses that will only be trendy for a season or so? These sunglasses from Urban Outfitters are Insta-model approved and less than $20! Get these if you want to take the skinny sunglasses trend for a test drive.

Le Specs The Last Lolita Cat-Eye Sunglasses

Add a little sass to your look with these pretty pink cat-eye sunglasses from Le Specs. Every fashion influencers is obsessed with these sunglasses, and they add a fun accent to any outfit.

2. Fringe Sandals

MICHAEL Michael Kors Fringed Sandals

These fringe sandals from Michael Kors make for the quintessential summer sandal. The ankle-tie detail is a cool update from the gladiator sandals of seasons past, and the tiny heel provides a nice lift. Bonus: if you’re the type of girl who wears black all season long, these sandals are just the thing you need in your closet.

Give your usual slide-on sandals some added flare with this pair of fringed slides from Dolce Vita. They’re a great neutral color, making them go well with so many outfits, and the easy slide-on style makes them a perfect pair to bring on your next tropical vacation. Wear them from the poolside to dinner, and everywhere in between!

MR by Man Repeller Jingling Fringed Velvet Sandals

From our favorite irreverent fashion influencer turned media queen, Leandra Medine Cohen, comes MR by Man Repeller: a collection of footwear that’s as quirky and fun as its creator. Turn heads in these fun fringe heel sandals. Not only will the fringe create great movement as you walk (seriously, all eyes will be on your shoes) but the unique color combination will win you so many compliments.

3. Silk Scarf

HVN Hot Pink Poppy Silk Hair Scarf

A silk scarf is just the thing to give your summer outfits a Brigitte Bardot inspired twist. I love this hair scarf from HVN (founded by fashionista Harley Viera Newton) because you can wear it in your hair, around your purse, or anywhere else. And if you’re a fan of coordinated ensembles, you’ll love that this scarf perfectly matches the dresses in HVN’s collection.

Madewell Silk Skinny Bandana

Bandanas are so fun to wear in the summer, but why not switch out your trusty cotton pair for a chic silk version? This one from Madewell has the classic paisley print, but the skinny cut makes it easier to wear in your hair or around your neck without getting too bulky, and the silk provides a more sophisticated touch.

Valentino Printed Silk-Twill Scarf

This print is giving me major “Italian riviera in the 60s” vibes, and I love this style for an elegant summer look. Get the full Bardot look by wearing this scarf as a headband—with teased hair, of course—and pairing with an eyelet shift dress and espadrilles.

4. Wicker Purse

Aranaz Jean Bucket Bag

Structured bucket bags are all the rage right now, and this one from Aranaz is the perfect updated style for the summer season. It features both a top handle and a shoulder strap, and even has a drawstring closure to keep all your belongings safe and secure.

Pamela Munson Paige Purse

Another fun style that I just cannot get enough of is the circle purse. This wicker style from Pamela Munson is darling, and the red ribbon detail provides an extra touch of sweetness.

Prada Leather-Trimmed Wicker Tote

For all you ladylike fashionistas out there, this Prada purse was practically made for you! This blush wicker purse is so pretty, and the bright fringe charms are a nice added detail. Carry it with you to brunch and feature it as the focal point of your flat lay.

5. Rope Jewelry

Calling all fans of statement jewelry: this necklace is exactly what you need for spring. Rope jewelry was a huge trend over the spring runways, and this necklace perfectly combines natural and metallic materials for a truly unique design.

Aurelie Bidermann Rope Bracelet

Aurelie Bidermann’s rope bracelet is elegant and sophisticated, while still referencing one of the season’s biggest trends. If your jewelry tastes tend to be minimalist, consider splurging on this beautiful gold bracelet.

Maison Margiela Rope-Detail Necklace

Not only is this necklace from Maison Margiela so cool and sculptural, but it is the perfect balance between a casual and dressed-up piece of jewelry. The gold rope sculptural piece is formal while the black rope tie is dressed-down, meaning you can wear this necklace practically anywhere, depending on how you style it.
