Soak Up the Sun in Style
Shine bright this summer with captivating accents
Summer is fast approaching! Longer days, sunnier skies, and the mouthwatering scent of barbecues are becoming the norm. Whether you’re planning a beach vacation city outing, or just soaking up the sun, the best part about dressing for the season is all the colourful accessories that come out to play. A vibrant, statement handbag, metallic hair accessories, and stackable summer jewellery – these are small staples that pack a punch with a simple look.
Read on to discover the outfit-making accessories to lean on this summer and beyond.
TIME TO SHINE
This season comes with so many ways to stand out, and why not? With their light-catching charm, metallics are made for sunny days. Inspired by the ‘20s glamour and bright lights of discos, metallic accessories lend an avant-garde, futuristic appeal to any look. The key to styling metallic accessories like this bucket hat is to keep the rest of your outfit tonal - dress up neutral, matte fabrics with flashes of silver and gold.
MAKE IT POP
There’s no better way to welcome summer into your wardrobe than by injecting it with some colour. With bright and bold accessories becoming a street style regular, investing in a colourful piece means having an easy fix to elevate any outfit to make it season-appropriate. Opt for solid colours as they stand out the best just like this mini red handbag. Discover the best bright-coloured accessories worth adding to your wardrobe this season below.
STACK IT UP
Yes, the more, the merrier. It’s all about experimenting and curating the perfect ring stack. So let your hands be under the style spotlight. Don’t overthink – space out different styles and play with proportions. When in doubt, seek out complementary colour families – grouping rings with warmer-toned gemstones and metals together, or pairing cool, aquatic-hued jewels with bands of pearls and white gold.
ARM CANDY
When it comes to bracelet stacking, it’s not just about the pieces themselves, but also the quantity. Pile on a selection of sculptural bangles and a classic timepiece to give any outfit an up-to-date edge. To keep the look effortless, stick to one or two metal tones, and choose pieces that are sleek and sculptural – anything too fussy will miss the mark. You can also consider and look to longer links – a lightweight, long-link chain is delicate enough to wear with summer dresses.
