These accessories are for the summer.
Summer is upon us which means, it’s time to kick out the summer wardrobe! We can finally un-retire our bikinis, classic tank tops, silken fabrics, as well as our cool linen pants and shorts. However, one thing I have noticed about summer fashion is that it has a tendency to be kind of boring. Do you often times find yourself reaching for just a classic tank top and basic denim bottoms, because same. I mean all of the fashion pieces that are available to us during the summer are basically minimal coverage, light and airy. Don’t get me wrong I love minimal coverage clothing, more so than wearing layers, however I do find it to look a bit mundane.
Anyways, the real question here is, how can we enhance our basic summer wardrobe? The answer to that is… accessories. Accessories are the fashion pieces that will really make a statement and emphasize your simple summer fit because they are the finishing details.
So, if you’re wanting to upgrade your summer style this season, this blog post if for you.
Jewelry
Jewelry is probably the number one accessory that is used to boost an outfit. Not only can it make you appear put together but it can also be dressed in a variety of different ways.
Wearing minimal gold or silver pieces offers a dainty, sophisticated look. Layering a good amount of crystal, beaded, turquoise, gold, or silver jewelry will give your outfit a bohemian, western aesthetic. It is really up to you and how you choose to style your embellishment.

Hair Pieces
Adding small details to your hair adds a statement to any outfit. Try wrapping a bandana around your hair or ponytail, or maybe adding in some decorative pins. If you want to keep your hair out of your face clip it up. Incorporating these little details into your style will not only make you appear more fashionable, but it will also help you look as though you put effort into you full fit, even if it may have only cost you a couple of seconds. Every little detail counts.

Hats
As we all should know by now protecting our skin from the sun is super important. Not only do hats act as great sun-blockers but they can also make the perfect addition to an outfit. Wear them casually with any tank top and bottoms or dress them up with a sweet mini dress and sandals. If you’re wanting to keep that beautiful, youthful, glowing skin, try investing in hats to assist in that goal, but also be sure to wear SPF of course.

Sunglasses
Level up your outfit by styling it with a unique pair of sunglasses. Seriously, sunnies have a way of giving you that total cool-girl appearance just by wearing them. Find a pair (or a couple of pairs) that suit you best and you will really look like a total fashion icon.
