Accessories are an exceptionally important part of our wardrobes, and yet we often overlook them. The right accessories can complete an outfit. They can transform a relatively plain look into something special. Adding accessories can take an outfit from day to night, from the office to the bar, and create something magical from very little. If you are keen to create a sustainable capsule wardrobe that’s great for the environment as well as your wallet, the right accessories are even more of a must.
The great news is, spring 2022 is going to see some amazing trends, with a big focus on sustainability, handcrafted, unique pieces and supporting small businesses. Here’s a look at some of the essential trends that you can’t afford to miss this spring.
Handcrafted Jewellery
Handcrafted jewellery is an absolute must if you are looking to update your accessories for the new season. Handcrafted pieces from fullmoondesigns.co.uk are unique, with an emphasis on colour, texture, and shape. Each piece is lovingly created, and it really shows. When buying jewellery, try to find items and stones that look great and make you feel fantastic.Pearls
Pearls are always glorious. They bring sophistication to any look, and always make us feel our best. Even better, pearls never go out of fashion, so invest in some this spring, and you’ll be wearing them for years to come.Sustainable Choices
This year, more than ever, sustainability is at the forefront of our minds when it comes to every purchase. The good news is, this means that more and more brands are offering a wide range of sustainable options from using recycled materials to offering second-hand ranges. Whatever you buy, think about its impact on our planet.Cat-Eye Shades
Oversized eyewear has been a big trend for the last few years. We’ve been wearing the same styles for a while, but this year it’s time for a change. Cat-eye shaped frames are stylish, sophisticated and they suit most face shapes. Add some tortoiseshell cat-eye sunglasses to your wardrobe and they’ll look great with everything.Lightweight Oversized Scarves
A lightweight scarf that you can easily add to any outfit is a must for spring when the weather is changeable, and we need to be prepared for everything. Consider block colours or classic patterns that can work with both office wear and casual clothes.Comfy Trainers
Comfy trainers are perhaps the best trend of the season. A pair of classic white trainers in a simple, yet comfortable style will look brilliant with everything from summer dresses to formal trousers and are a must if you are always on the go.Chunky Boots
For those colder, wetter spring days, nothing beats a pair of chunky-soled statement boots. Both heels and flats with a platform heel are in fashion this year, and like those white pumps, they’ll look fab with almost everything.A ‘Works with Everything’ Bag
Fed up with leaving your face covering and hand sanitiser in the wrong bag? Always looking for your diary when you change bags? A bag that works with everything is the answer. Backpacks are still very fashionable, they look great with everything, and they are big enough for all of your stuff.Accessories don’t have to be expensive to make an impression. Even a few relatively cheap pieces can transform your outfits and give both your winter and summer clothes a cool spring feel.
