Becoming fashionable doesn’t always require wearing nothing but designer labels. Reinventing your fashion sense could be as simple as layering on new pieces of jewelry or putting on a patterned blazer. These top fashion accessories can turn even the classic little black dress into a fashionable look that will have everyone admiring your style:

1. Wear an oversized watch

Swapping out your bracelet for a watch gives you an easy way to still draw attention to your hands while enjoying a more functional accessory. Slipping a quick glance at your watch is more stylish and subtle than pulling out your phone during an event. Wearing a watch can also make you look smart without even trying. The best part of an oversized watch is it is a statement piece that will stand out on your wrist and make you look fashion forward.

2. Make a statement with sunglasses

Accessories that serve a purpose are always better than ones that don’t. A pair of statement sunglasses instantly adds a touch of color and shape to your face on days when you don’t have time to put on any makeup. There are many styles of sunglasses that suit different face shapes so make sure you wear sunglasses that suit you.

3. Add texture with a flowy scarf

Chiffon and other light materials give your outfit a whimsical look that is perfect for any occasion. If you’re dressing for work, then consider choosing a flowy scarf in a lighter material that you can keep on indoors. With scarfs, you also have the option of choosing bold colors to brighten up an otherwise muted outfit. However, if you are already wearing a bold outfit, it might be best to go for a more neutral scarf.

4. Choose a signature necklace

Big, statement necklaces are noticeable from across the room, and costume jewelry is typically affordable enough that you can own several statement pieces. However, it is also fine to opt to wear a signature necklace in a more simple and classic style that you can wear around your neck everyday. Since necklaces draw the eye to your chest, make sure to choose one that is the right length to enhance the neckline of your favorite top or dress.

5. Play up your outfit with bold colored shoes

People tend to focus on the waist up when they choose accessories, but you can also step out in style by choosing the right shoes. Whether you prefer heels, wedges, flats, or sneakers, going with a bold color shows that you are confident and ready to have fun. Right now, bright pinks, yellow, and neon green are just a few colors that are hot for shoes.

6. Create clean lines with a supportive bra

A bra is one of those must-have accessories that do all of the most important work undercover. Wearing an ill-fitting bra leads to lumps and bumps on your back and chest that can detract from an otherwise perfect outfit. Look for a supportive bra in a style that works with your clothing. For instance, you might want one with straps that can be adjusted into criss-cross and strapless styles for more versatility.

7. Accentuate your waist with a great belt

Many dresses today have loose designs that aren’t always flattering to your figure. Adding a belt helps you to cinch in the waist, which has a slimming effect that will help you show off your figure. Plus, belts help to make your whole outfit look polished and put together. Try pairing a bold-colored belt with your dress pants for work, and enjoy seeing how such a simple accessory can upgrade your overall look.

8. Pair function and fashion with a versatile jacket

On days where the temperature is cold, you’re going to want to wear a jacket. Since you’ll be wearing one anyway to stay warm, you might as well wear one that can elevate your style. Versatile jackets tend to be made in fabrics and styles that can easily go from day to night. Being able to toss one over your shoulder or remove it to show off your sleeveless dress makes it possible to keep your look changing throughout the day. There are also many styles to pick from, everything from a simple blazer to a puffy winter coat. Confidence is key when choosing a jacket to layer with the rest of your outfit, so make sure you pick one that is cohesive with the rest of your look that you like.
