Accessorizing is a girl’s best friend, and I am in fact, that girl. Styling tip no. 1, know your accessories and know how to use them. If you’re new to this rule, or simply don’t know how to make a basic outfit go that extra mile, I’ve got you covered. Here are 10 chic accessories that are bound to make any casual outfit look on point. And I’m talking to-the-dot on point.
It is no unknown fact that layering jewelry is one of the most beloved accessorizing trends of today. Dainty gold chains add a sense of class to any casual attire that you just can’t resist, and contrasting rings incorporate texture that ties the entire look together. There is really no easier way to effortlessly bring the chic out of a basic everyday outfit, so you best believe I’m gonna jumble up ten necklaces around my neck and gather up the rings!

If you haven’t yet discovered the magic of silk scarves and all the perks they bring to the table, you’re in for a lifestyle change. Printed silk scarves are probably one of the most versatile of chic accessories, and there’s no argument there.

No, I’m not talking about hick town straw hats, I’m talking round suede camel toned sun hats that bring out the chic in a chick. With their girly feel and sun lovin’ flare, sun hats are sure to be at the top of my list of go-to hair accessories. On top of that, these chic accessories are not only perfectly pretty, but in the boiling sun they get the job done. Is that the definition of “beauty and brains” or am I just crazy?

The power of sunglasses with coloured lenses is actually a little unbelievable. No matter the simplicity of the outfit, these chic accessories transform any victim of the “lazy day blues” into what I like to think feels like “the next big thing.” I think I’m speaking for everyone who’s a fan of these frames when I say that these babies will make you go from a cant-be-bothered 2 to a solid ready-to-go 12, in no time.

I mean, I guess the hat doesn’t have to be Parisian, but it sure will make you look like one. Nothing screams chic like French fashion, which is why we just had to throw in the classic beret into the mix. In whatever colour, fabric or style, berets are one of the classiest of hats, and they never fail to take a basic outfit to the next level. I mean, it literally looks like a cherry on top of your head…Too much?

First and foremost, it has to be faux; ethical fashion is the best fashion. Second, if you haven’t tried on a darling fur throw with your winter coat, now is the time (or next winter at least). I personally don’t think there is anything more “chic” than fur, and you can argue with me about that later. First, throw on some fur with that outfit, then we can talk.

Multi-tasker. Multi-talented. All-rounded. Like, literally. Belt bags are everything, and I am more than ecstatic about their existent. You can call ’em what you like, but I call them the better version of fanny packs. Classy, sassy, and a little bit edgy, a belt bags doesn’t just tie the outfit together, it transforms it.

On the simpler end of the spectrum of chic accessories, bold earrings really do make bold moves. If you’re looking to find a one-minute fix for your casual everyday outfit, make a statement with bold, colourful or structured earrings. Wear ’em with your hoodies, or wear ’em with sweats, you are bound to look best dressed even when a little stressed and depressed.

I call this the “girls in pearls” movement, because girls in pearls really do make moves. Pearl hair-clips add a stunning touch to your hair while making the entire outfit look on point, top to bottom. There’s no question that these chic accessories make for one of the trendiest fashion statements today, so when are you going to make yours?

I apologize that my article is coming to an end, but hear me out, I’ve got something good for you to finish it on a high note. No, I mean literally on a high note. What I’m going on about are heels or heeled shoes that make a statement, with their colour, design or build. From red sock booties paired with black sweats and a hoodie to black block heeled sandals with denims and a plain white tee, the opportunities to look fresh while feeling fresh are endless.
