5 "Go To" Accessories

According to the fabulous stylist, Brad Goreski, there are 5 must have accessories he thinks you "gotta-get" for your wardrobe.  Of course each one of them is at a price point of $200 and up so I thought I would adapt it for my readers who have a slightly smaller bank account.


1. Large Day Bag
I do agree that a good leather handbag is the best investment you can make for your accessory wardrobe, but it is not necessary to spend a million dollars on one.  There are great options at all price points.  If you have your basics covered, buy one in a great color and add a little fun to your outfits.



R&M Bubble Lamb Shopper - $105


Leather Market Tote - $120


Merona Scarf Tote - $30

2. Cocktail Ring
I'm sure we would all love to wear a Harry Winston cocktail ring, but I personally think that having a few pieces of costume jewelry is much more fun.  Sporting a little bling brings out your sparkly personality.



Soiree Trio Ring - $49


Glistening Dome Ring - $6.00


Opulence Cocktail Ring - $48


Gin Daisy Ring - $54

3. Amazing Sunglasses
I love a fabulous pair of designer sunglasses, but only if you can take good care of them.  Bring a friend to help you find your perfect pair - whether a vintage silhouette or "Old Hollywood" glamour.



Modern Square Logo Glasses - $149


Darryl - $128


Oversized Round Sunnies - $110


Michelle Sunnies - $98

4. Vintage Clutch
If you take this literally, a vintage clutch may be hard to find.  It also may take a little time which most of us mommies are in desperate need of.  If there are thrift stores or even second-hand stores in your area, check them out and see if you can find a unique bag for a night on the town.  There are also plenty of vintage look-a-likes out there too.



Renee beaded clutch - $79.50


Charley Clutch - $56
Piperlime



Rococo Fold-over Clutch - $30


Pleated Frame Clutch - $49




5. Closed-Toe Pumps  
A great looking pump can be worn with just about everything in your closet.  Find a heel height that works for you and go for a nude color which is the most versatile.



Faith 2 - $100


Year Wedge - $90


Desti Pump - $98


Gillyan - $89

Happy Shopping!
