6 New Accessories To Have On Your Radar
When it comes to accessorizing, natural textures, colorful prints and beaded embellishments are hot right now. Read on to discover our favorites from Loewe, Jimmy Choo and more
Embellished sandals
Why stop at beaded jewelry when you can have beaded sandals too? It’s an easy way to add color and fun to warm-weather outfits. Jimmy Choo’s ‘Lova’ sandals come in pea-green suede and look as good styled with linen tailoring as they do poolside cover-ups, while Loewe Paula’s Ibiza’s chunky ‘Fussbett’ style is perfect for leisurely strolls through local markets. Those with a magpie eye will love Ancient Greek Sandals and Valentino Garavani’s thong styles – both are intricately detailed with metallic embellishments that shimmer in the sunlight. The minimalist fashion flip flop may be having a moment, but embellished sandals offer a little more fun for the maximalists among us.

Silk scarves
When it comes to style mileage, a luxurious silk scarf really does go the distance – not only can it be worn as a neckerchief or shawl but as a top and a belt, too. Try it yourself with Toteme’s printed silk-twill style from NET-A-PORTER’s exclusive edit. It looks ultra chic tied around the waist (every tastemaker’s favorite styling trick) or the handles of a raffia tote and goes just as well with tailoring in the city as it does beachwear. Alternatively, wear Gucci’s floral-print style as a headscarf or bandeau top for the ultimate Y2K throwback.

The new woven bags
A textured, woven bag epitomizes timeless style and instantly evokes bucolic summer escapes. Ticking every box, Loewe’s ‘Ola’ shoulder bag from its collaboration with Paula’s Ibiza is crafted from crocheted raffia and comes with two different straps – use the longer leather version to wear it crossbody and the metal donut chain if you want to tuck neatly under your arm. Dragon Diffusion’s ‘Nantucket’ tote, meanwhile, is a chic choice for city breaks – and your flight home.

Skinny belts
Whether you’ve been in the office or at the beach all day and don’t want (or have time) to change before dinner, then try adding a waist-cinching belt to your outfit – it will immediately make breezy shirts and dresses feel a touch more polished. Exclusive to NET-A-PORTER, Déhanche’s bestselling ‘Hollyhock’ belt comes in yellow suede and looks gorgeous paired with chocolate brown or burgundy, while Gucci’s ‘GG Supreme’ style is a great way to balance the prettiness of a floral print.

Playful jewelry
Whether strung with shells, pearls, semi-precious gems or beads, jewelry in eye-catching colors and shapes is a must this season. Lizzie Fortunato’s ‘Ilios’ necklace – strung with a mix of agate, glass, pearl and quartz beads – will help zhuzh up simple tees, while Completedworks’ green calcite style looks exquisite paired with an effortless matching set, strapless dress or even a bikini. Elsewhere, David Webb’s ‘Double Stripe’ cocktail ring, set with golden topaz, smooth jade inlays and scores of pavé diamonds, is a mesmerizing choice for sunset drinks by the sea.

Oversized sunglasses
A great pair of sunglasses is often the key to infinitely chic outfits, regardless of whether the sun is shining or not. As far as trends go, this season is all about big, bold frames with a sporty twist. Jacques Marie Mage’s ‘Barclay’ aviators have a chunky teardrop shape that frames but doesn’t overwhelm the face, while Alaïa’s bug-eyed round frames make a striking statement. Whichever pair you choose, be prepared to receive plenty of compliments.
