We all have days when no outfit looks good. Your wardrobe is prone to insipidness, but that does not mean you have to rush out to buy new clothes. Stop! Your outfit is a composition of more than just your clothes.
You can transform the most basic outfits with the help of a few essential accessories. It is necessary to accessorize every outfit that you choose to wear. No look is complete without them.
Building a collection of accessories can be quite overwhelming when you are presented with a sea of options to choose from. So, we thought of making the process easier for you.
In this blog, we have compiled a list of 12 accessories without which your wardrobe is incomplete.
1.Sneakers
Who doesn’t love sneakers? Running shoes are great, but white kicks are a fashion statement. The epitome of casual comfort, this essential pair of shoes is perfect for everyday wear.
Effortlessly versatile and super hip, you can pair your sneakers with anything ranging from a flirty chiffon dress to a ragged pair of jeans and a tank top.
2. Belt
Belts are more than just a tool to keep your pants in place. They are an essential accessory now. Simple, yet oh so impactful, a belt adds structure to your ensemble.
You can play with different straps, widths, and colors depending on your style preferences. With dresses, we recommend opting for chunkier belts with statement buckles.
For everyday wear, a classic solid belt is dependable, wearable, and versatile. For formal looks, embellished and adorned belts are all the rage right now.
Wear a fancy belt over a monotone outfit, and you are ready to turn heads wherever you go.
3. Scarf
Scarves make such a chic fashion statement. Do you remember the iconic green scarf form the movie Confession of a Shopaholic?
It was so incredibly stunning and gorgeous – subtle yet striking. If you are looking to amp up your everyday looks, we recommend investing in scarves. You can style them in infinite ways, making them all the more fun to work with.
The best fabrics to work with include silk, satin, cashmere, and wool. Do not be afraid to spice things up with vivid prints and vibrant colors as they attract the most attention.
4. Sunglasses
If there is one accessory that every woman needs in her wardrobe, it is a good pair of sunglasses. A quirky pair of reflectors can up the glam quotient of any ensemble.
Every sunglass frame comes with a unique personality. Get one according to your face structure, and slay the naysayers! Our personal favorites are aviators, cat-eye sunglasses, and wayfarers.
5. Wallet
Wallets are not even an accessory as much as they are a necessity. You need one to carry your cards and cash. A fashionable wallet is simply a bonus. Be sure to have a couple of them so you can mix things up every now and then.
6. Red lipstick
While red lipstick may not be considered an accessory, it is more than just makeup. No makeup look is more dazzling than a swipe of ruby. A red lip trumps all others. Pair any minimal, monochromatic look with an entrancing red lipstick for an ultimate off-duty edge.
However, finding the right shade of red is essential because the wrong one can destroy everything. We all have different skin undertones, and there is a different shade of red that complements every skin type.
We suggest opting for a blue-toned red as it makes your teeth look whiter.
7. Watch
A watch is a simple, practical, yet gorgeous accessory. If you are not fond of bracelets or chunky cuffs, we suggest trying your luck with a watch instead. Universally flattering and effortless, watches add a hint of elegance and sophistication to your outlook.
If you want to keep it simple, then a classic leather strap watch is for you. However, if you want some style on your wrist, then the options are endless! It all comes down to personal preference.
8. Hats
A hat makes an impression, unlike any other accessory. Whether it is a sassy fedora, a breezy straw hat, a casual baseball cap, a comfy beanie, or a fabulous wide-brimmed number, hats take a look from simple to a stunner in a heartbeat.
It is the ultimate way to stay in the shade as well as shade the haters.
9. Jewelry
Jewelry is a timeless accessory that can dress up any outfit in a matter of seconds. Whether it is a simple pair of everyday studs or a bold pair of gemstone-studded chandelier earrings, a sprinkle of sparkle never fails to impress.
10. Heels
If sneakers are a casual wear necessity, heels are a must-have for all other occasions. They are perfect for work, formal, casual, and party wear.
A fierce pair of high heels add an instant uplift (quite literally) to any ensemble. From your office desk to a dinner date, a pair of heels will have your back anytime, anywhere.
11. Leather jacket
A leather jacket is a garment, yes, but it is so much more than that. Supremely versatile, effortlessly chic, and incredibly sexy, nothing makes an impression quite like a leather jacket. You can pair it with a dress shirt, tailored pants, or a long dress.
The recent trend is all about oversized leather jackets and androgynous fashion. When it comes to accessorizing an outfit with a leather jacket women have multiple options.
Go for a faux leather jacket if you want an elegant yet simple look. However, for party wear, nothing completes your ensemble better than a bomber or suede jacket.
12. Bags
Would this list even be complete without bags? Of course, not? A bag is an essential component of every woman’s uniform. Not only does it carry all your essentials in one place, but it is also a stunning fashion statement.
Our personal favorite perfect bag style is a trusty tote bag. A tote bag has enough room to store all your essentials and is also super modish and comfortable.
