Accessories are the perfect frosting to a look. Accessories set the seal and seal the deal. Accessories, including jewellery, shoes, and bags, this season are exciting and enticing. Being a total fanatic about accessories, I am here to share with you the trend highlights for Accessories Trends Spring Summer 2016.
Accessories Trends for SS16 can best be defined as a fine cocktail of hippie and grunge, punk and rebel with a dash of Rock n Roll. Elements like chains, glitter, and fringes all come together to create a theme that gives you the opportunity to explore and hone your true hues.
The best part about Accessories SS16? There’s so much variety. Stand out in the crowd while you blend in perfectly. Let’s go through the various elements you could embrace this season:
Shoulder Duster earrings: Taking cue from last year’s boho-feather trend, here come the more shoulder dusters. Shoulder dusters are basically really long earrings. Preferably worn with hair tied slick. You could wear them in one ear or both ears. Explore with materials and colors. Feathers, stones, pearls, and what not.
Royalty Inspired Crowns: Feel like a queen? Dress like one too. A rebel queen, maybe. Bring in the family heirloom crown and pair it with your androgynous outfit (Think Carrie Bradshaw in SATC 2) and you are good to go. We would recommend waves or curls or messy hairdos with the crown.
Graphic Elements: Graphic elements are huge this season. Take inspiration from a whole lot of popular art, or go muddy in your vibe. Graphic is enough to evoke fine drama in the look. While going graphic with the outfit can be tricky, certain add-ons in graphic prints can go a long way in adding zing to the look. Bag, shoes, or jewelry, go graphic this time one way or the other.
Choker necklaces: The traditional Indian jewelry finds it foreign-returned sibling. Chokers are here but with a twist. Structured necklaces that fall close to the decolletage are on-trend. It would be interesting to see them paired with the shoulder-duster earrings with tied hair.
Flatforms: While there are crowns et all happening elsewhere, in the realm of footwear, bulk is the new hot. A refreshing break from sleek and strappy meant for the girls with the forever pretty feet. You can roam about freely in them, jump and cross rough terrains. More comfy and more swagger.
