Baguette Bag
A shoulder baguette bag will never do you wrong whether you’re heading out to brunch with the girls or going out on a dinner date. In my opinion, it adds a simple and sensual element to an outfit. A baguette bag can come in a plethora of colors from black, brown, red, or tan. Pick up whichever color makes you feel the most confident. They also can be made with longer straps like this one from Zara. Wear it with a simple baby tee and jeans on a relaxed day or with a full oversized light suit for an event. If you want to add some other dimension throw on the bag with a blazer and tank top layered over a sheer skirt for a model-off-duty look. It’s a mature yet playful look with a bag that is versatile.
Sunglasses are forever going to be a must-have accessory. Right now, aviator frames are in but they are also quite timeless. From wired frames to black or tortoise shells with yellow, blue, or black tints,we recommend a pair like these from Free People. You can style them with any look to elevate your ensemble. For example, a simple jeans and graphic T-shirt look is ideal for when it’s warm. Whereas a blazer and jeans look is also acceptable no matter the weather. Aviators also work with a flowy skirt and a baby tee. In the cooler months, paired this eyewear selection with a bomber jacket over trousers–perhaps a long fur coat could opt for your outerwear, regardless these are stylish looks once all the elements come together. An aviator frame no matter what colorway tends to bring a certain cool-girl energy to any outfit.
You might not have thought to have fashionable phone cases to add into the accessories section. But, they are such a fun component worth adding to an outfit. From silly prints or chic textures, a phone case is a stellar interchangeable accessory because you can always make it feel like a new piece. If you’re more of a minimalist opt for something eye-catching like this silver textured phone case from Amazon. If you’re a maximalist with no certain aesthetic you stick to opt for a handcrafted case like this upcycled one from Etsy.
Adding a baseball cap or a scarf to an outfit can sometimes be the missing piece to a look. Right now, it’s trending to wear a scarf underneath a cap which is something we’ve seen street >Kia Marie do plenty of times. You can try that type of styling or wear them as separate pieces. For the scarf, you could wear it as a top in a bandeau or tube top style or as a hair accessory tied behind your head, around a ponytail, or as a babushka, tied under the chin. For the cap, wear it with a suit or even a dress to juxtapose your look, or casually with jeans, a T-shirt, or a button-down.
