We understand that Monday mornings in summer are hard enough and plain boring greys and blues make it easier for your workplace to suck you into a black hole of fashion, but you can prevent it with accessories that help you stay in style without constricting your ability to be an alert, productive and energised worker. Accessories are the ideal method to keep your work style crisp yet trendy.
Rings, watches and bracelets
Choose one item as your lead and the rest, supporting. Rings, arm ornaments and hoops are vital components of your toolbox and they should consummately supplement each other like rings, a leather watch or bracelet on the other hand but avoid choosing too many together.
Your purse is your versatile style statement, but it is also your most important and useful accessory so always invest in a smart and elegant handbag. ‘Think Big’ and don't be afraid to let your purse do more than hold makeup. Laptops, chargers, documents and more, there are a lot of assets that one carries back and forth from work. Make sure you pick up a handbag that has a sleek design while still maintaining enough carrying capacity to match your needs.
Belts and sashes
Haul those belts out of the closet, they are all about defining your waist and adding some uniqueness to the outfits you wear to work. The thing with belts is a selection of a contrasting colour that will make you look fresh. Your belt should be classic in design and complement your outfit. The buckle should be conservative and should match your jewellery. Wear gold with gold, silver with silver, etc. On the off chance that you have gems that are a mix of silver and gold, try picking the same for the belt clasp.
