6 Summer Accessory Trends

Bright bangles

Bright and colourful bangles, all stacked together, are amazing when paired with a chiffon dress or simple tank top. Try either one, like this diamond-patterned dazzler by Aldo, or many, with varying colours and styles.

Breezy scarves

Sheer scarves are a must-have for Summer 2010. Paired with a simple top and jeans, a safari-chic scarf can enhance a boring look to a bold statement.

Embellished Bags

Summer 2010 bags are diverse. From leather (or faux-leather!) slouchy hobo bags to embellished clutches, there is something for everyone. Especially “in” for this summer is the Alexander Wang zippered hobo bag, bohemian suede and fringed bags, and snakeskin printed clutches (not real, of course).

Jewelled Shoes

Strappy, tribal-esque shoes look stunning with either vivid or simple clothes. Try jewelled flats, or beaded gladiator sandals for a summery feel.

Get shady

Give your outfit an edgy look by mixing up your sunglasses this summer. Try Ray-Ban aviators, Wayfarer acetate sunglasses or cat-eye frames to bring out a vintage retro-fabulous look.

Watch out

Little, girly watches are definitely not in for this summer. Ladies, steal your boyfriend’s or dad’s watch, or buy a bold, brightly coloured watch to heat up weekend denim outfits.
