When you’re ready to go out on the town with your girls, or a fancy date with your beau, you want to look your best. While a nice top, pants, and shoes will do the trick, accessories will tie your whole outfit together. Accessories matter for a variety of reasons. They can help define the occasion, allow you to express your personal style, and are interchangeable to create multiple outfits from a single piece of clothing. With accessories, you can easily dress up an outfit that’s appropriate for work, or make an outfit fun and flashy for a day of fun with friends. Below, we’ll go over four luxury accessories that match with any outfit.
1. Earrings
When it comes to earring styles, there are more to choose from than you think. You’re probably familiar with your hoops and studs, but what about climbers, huggies, and ear jackets? All of these earring styles serve their purposes, which is why it’s important you know how to wear them well and appropriately.
Hoops: There are small hoops… and then there are big hoops. A simple pair of small hoops are great to wear to most occasions, whether to lunch with friends or for an important meeting at work. When it comes to big hoops, however, stick to wearing those to a night out on the town or a fun night of dancing at the club.
Studs: Stud earrings are a classic and timeless accessory. They’re delicate, comfortable to wear, and can be worn for any occasion. You can wear a pair of pearl earrings for a dressed-up look, or opt for a pair of statement studs to show off your style.
Climbers: Climber earrings gently climb up your ear from your earlobe. They’re subtle, yet elegant, and are perfect for a slightly dressed-down Friday ensemble for work or a get-together with friends.
Huggies: Huggie earrings do exactly what they sound like, hug your ear. They’re small and subtle and can help you show off your rebellious side or can be worn all day from day to night.
Ear Jackets: Ear jackets hang beneath your ear by hanging onto the earring post behind the lobe. They’re incredibly versatile and can make you look different and daring or cute and classy.
2. Watches
Another must-have accessory that can match any outfit is a timeless watch. Watches are a classic accessory everyone should have. If it isn’t for the elegance, you should invest in one for the craftsmanship. A lot is going on inside a watch to make it tell time accurately. The balance wheel, mainspring, gear train, and escapement are just some of the pieces keeping the hands moving. Investing in a luxury watch is like wearing a piece of art on your wrist. When looking for women’s watches, pay attention to the design, brand, and the materials it’s made from. This will help you find one that matches any outfit and brings each one up a notch.
3. Necklaces
Unlike earrings and watches that can be hidden by your hair or sleeves, necklaces are front and center across your neck and top. This means you need one that makes a statement and flaunts your personality. Going to a fancy ball or gala? A pearl necklace will perfectly accentuate your dress. Or, are you looking for something a little more subtle, yet still sophisticated? A simple gold chain with a small pendant is an excellent choice to emphasize your work attire or evening outfit.
4. Belts
If there’s one trend that’s here to stay, it’s flaunting your luxury belt. Over the past few years, Gucci, Salvatore Ferragamo, Louis Vuitton, and other designer-brands have made their names even more prominent with their luxury belts. Celebrities and the rich have brought belt-fashion back by flaunting their wealth with a tucked-in top behind a logo belt buckle. Logo belts are now fashioned with a variety of different materials, colors, and styles, ranging from snakeskin to leather and jet-black to flashy statement colors.
Tying It All Together
There are plenty of ways to bring any ordinary outfit to the next level. Whether you want the attention all on you or just want to show off your style in a subtle way, accessories can help. Along with these four must-have accessories, you can’t go wrong with elegant rings, a classy clutch, and even a luxury phone case.
