Welcome to the final post in our Accessories Week series on the blog! So we’ve spent most of the time talking about jewellery, but there is more to accessorising than just the jewellery. Shoes, hats, scarves and bags also feature in the accessories category!
Let’s talk about what other accessories you can use to add that finishing touch to your looks.
SCARVES
Wrap them around your neck, waist, wrist or even handbag! A lightweight summer scarf is definitely one of the most underated accessories out there! Pick some up from your local charity shop (you never know, you might even nail a vintage Hermes!!)
Just some ways to wear a summer scarf!

HATS
Not only are the sun smart, they can totally lift a look! (plus they hid a bad hair day reaaaaaaally well, and yes, speaking from personal experience here!)
My fave go-to hat is my straw fedora (a fedora, or trilby is generally a hat that is creased on the crown and the brim folds down from back to front). They are great to add a little bit of casual cool to any outfit!
use a hat as an accessory every now and then!
Winter is great for hats too! (I remember hearing something as a kid about losing most of your heat through your head when you are cold, so get a hat on!) I love this teal felt hat below from CottonOn – what a great way to add some colour when we are all being boring in black through winter!
Sure they keep the sun off, but they make an outfit look super too! (and yes, that is The Boy – cute isn’t he)
BAGS
Personally I’m not a massive bag girl (more a shoe girl myself, plus I have so much colour in my wardrobe already, I think a neutral bag is best for me – it’s all about balance remember?) but if bags are your thing, what a perfect way to add a colour pop to your outfit!!
Here are some of my fave colourful bags doing the rounds at the moment…..
1. Witchery ‘Maggie’ shopping bag AUS $229 (buy here) 2. Colette by Colette Hayman ‘Didi’ large tote AUS $59.95 (buy here) 3. Mimco Molten Hobo AUS $449 (buy here)
Well there you have it folks! The end of Accessories Week – did I forget anything? Let me know if you have any questions at all about how to, what to, where to and when to accessorise! I’m always here to help!
