The best thing about fashion is how it can act as a unique form of self-expression. Accessories are a great and often cost-effective way of customising your look to your liking. From sleek and minimalist options to more psychedelic and colourful flourishes, there is something out there for every style and personality. Here are just a few easy and fun accessories that can make your look unique to you.
Baseball Caps
The classic baseball cap is sleek, widely available and versatile. Despite some giving them the derogatory label “dad hats”, the ubiquitous look is currently seeing a massive surge in popularity. The sheer number of options and styles available means that it can fit and accentuate a massive number of styles and looks. This also means that there’s a hat out there to suit every price range. Use it to make a statement about a team or cause you care about, or to give your outfit a modern, down-to-earth feel.
Chic Glasses Frames
If you’re a specs-wearer, you may consider them to be an unfortunate necessity, rather than a stylish accessory. However, with how much we use screens today, wearing glasses is becoming more and more common. In fact, even among children and teenagers they are common, with 20% of them requiring some sort of corrective lenses. As such, nowadays there are a wide array of frame choices, so finding a pair that suits your style is now easier than ever. If you want something understated, minimal and practical, consider trying spherical, or aviator frames. However, if you’re looking for something quirkier and more fun, bright and floral frames are a great choice.
Scarves
People tend to associate fashion most with the summer months, but this by no means you can’t customise your autumn and winter looks. Scarves are an easy way to express your style during those colder months. As with baseball caps, scarves are a great choice for personalising your wardrobe because of their versatility. This applies to both the variety of colours and patterns available, and the wide array of ways they can be worn. For something professional and subtle, dark blues, greens and reds can be understated yet effective. If you’re feeling more adventurous, floral or patterned scarves in bright shades of yellow, orange and pink may be more your speed. Consider matching the weight and length of your scarf with your body type, as well. For instance, slimmer frames are better accentuated by lighter, less bulky scarfs, for example.
Stylish Belts
When choosing a belt people often are more concerned with practicality over style. This can mean that they don’t realise that they can also be a unique way of individualising your outfit. Woven belts, for example, can give your look a rustic, rural finish. Whichever belt you do end up choosing though, you should make sure that the colour and style complements the outfit you intend to wear it with, and that it is comfortable when you wear it. Ideally, your belt should be 1-2 inches larger than the waistline of the trousers you’ll match them with.
