Statement Accessories To Shake Up Your Wardrobe

Statement accessories are an easy way to showcase your personality, style, and attention to detail. They can dress up any outfit, whether that’s the sweats you wear every day to college, or a little black dress. If you want to introduce more colour, life, and fun to your wardrobe, a few versatile accessories go a long way towards glitzing it up.

1. Giant Sunglasses

Functional statement accessories always offer a little extra glamour. Giant Sunglasses combine the best of both worlds- protecting your vision, while negating those who attempt to look you in your giant, bug-shaped eyes. Never look another peasant in the eyes with these gargantuan sunglasses.

2. Crossbody Bag

The crossbody bag is a great accessory for beating up would-be handbag thieves. May they never succeed in stealing your statement accessories. Crossbody bags are just as handy as sunglasses; they keep your phone, purse, and touch-up lipstick within reach (as they always should be). It’s also okay to prioritise form over function with statement accessories. Your bag can be as outlandish as you desire.

3. Visor

Visors have been taking the world by storm. If you want to rock golf-caddy chic, then don a bright plastic visor to keep the sun out of your eyes, and your peers out of your lane as you truly shine in neon-coloured, statement accessories.

4. Choker

Chokers are the fashion trend that keep on giving. From the early days of shoe-string bows, to gem-stones, to delicate silver necklaces, there has always been a choker for your every ensemble. But if you really want to make a statement, the choker of choice is going to be big, bright, and fierce.

5. Earrings

While you can co-ordinate statement accessories to suit every piercing you have, the holes in your earlobes are the most fun to experiment with. Choose between long tassels, giant hoops, or even acrylic key-chain style earrings to compliment the rest of your outfit.

6. Socks

Socks are considered a witty way to shake up your wardrobe. If someone notices them, it’s like a secret bond has formed between you. You are both sock-lovers. Don’t let your foot-wear fans down, and sport some colourful hosiery today.

7. Shoes

If you prefer showing-off scandalous ankle to socks, then let your feet shine in some dazzling shoes. If you’re not one to let sore heels and toes get you down, then the options are endless for what you can get away with, whether it’s wedges or witchy, thigh-high boots.

8. Tights

Still can’t decide the best way to get your legs noticed by friends and enemies alike? Stock your wardrobe with adventurously-patterned stockings. These statement accessories can be worn to almost any occasion, and you’ll still look chic.

9. Beanie

Sometimes as the cold sets in, it can be easy to get stuck in a style slump. Don’t let a cold breeze hold you back! Dress yourself up from the head down to your toes with statement accessories like beanies and scarves.

10. Sunglasses Chain

If you have a perfectly good pair of sunglasses, but want to experiment with a new look over the summer, then a sunglasses chain may be your new best friend. It’s handy and very stylish, promising to make any wearer feel like the editor of Vogue sunbathing in Paris.

11. Hair Clips

Why talk, when you can let your hair speak for you? These statement accessories are a must-have for keeping that pesky fringe out of your eyes.

12. Belt

Belts are statement accessories that hold a whole outfit together. Choose large, shiny buckles, or lovely prints when deciding what to use to hold your pants up.
