Hottest accessories for a stylish summer
Whether you’re about to hit the beach, a friend’s BBQ, or the shopping mall, there are many ways to add style and pizzazz to your summer outfits. Stick with these rules for accessorising this summer.
We love everything bright, bold and big this summer. Think chunky bracelets and oversized pendants; gladiator sandals and stacks of gold.
Here are the trends we think are hot right now.
Shoes, shoes, shoes!
The gladiator is back, and it’s bigger and better than ever. During the day, team them with some safari shorts or a floral dress, and you can go from beach to BBQ in no time. As dusk falls, pull on a pair of brightly coloured high heels – and show off your pedicure!
Glittering gold
It’s the must-have metal this summer; the perfect accompaniment to your spray-tan! From dangling earrings with a bohemian touch, to a golden pendant with special meaning to you, there are many ways to add a splash of gold to your outfit.
Bold and chunky
Eye-catching accessories on your wrist make a bold statement about your attitude and add a touch of drama to your outfit. Seek out bright and chunky pieces in colours you love, and mix and match your way to accessory heaven.
Eye-candy
Sunglasses are appearing in every colour under the sun this summer – from bold reds to canary yellows, aquatic blues to vivid greens. While the primary colours may not be to your taste, there’s so much to choose from that it’s never been easier to pick a frame that suits your face and your fashion sense.
