Elevate Your Style with Men’s Accessories
Men’s fashion accessories play an important role in outfits, allowing you to express your individuality and a level of sophistication. In my latest article, I suggest a variety of must-have pieces to boost your style game.
In the following key points, I advise which accessories you should add to your wardrobe this season.
Watches And Jewellery
Watches
Men’s watches are a fantastic way to share your personality and style with the world, and the correct choice can add a touch of refinement to any outfit.
- Classic Timepieces – typically elegant in appearance, constructed using the finest materials, and holding a timeless appeal. They traditionally feature leather straps or metal bracelets.
- Smart Watches – equipped with a fantastic selection of features that include fitness tracking, notifications, and customisable faces. If you own an iPhone, you can pair a compatible smart watch and add one of the many Apple Watch Bands available – additional personalisation includes sleek business-style leather bands or silicone bands for your workouts.
- Diver’s Watches – rugged timepieces ideal for underwater exploration that use stainless steel bracelets or silicone watch bands. However, they can work just as easily and work well in everyday wear.
Jewellery
Men’s jewellery can be a striking addition to your ensemble, from subtle items for daily wear to something more elaborate for special occasions. Remember to strike a good balance when pairing watches and jewellery.
- Cufflinks And Tie Bars – these accessories are essential for formal settings and a pair of cufflinks and a tie bar can add the finishing touch to any suit look. Opt for designs that reflect your personal taste, from contemporary models to classic silver bars.
- Bracelets and Rings – I’m a huge fan of rings, typically distressed silver designs, for a more edgy vibe. I usually select a metal cuff or leather band for bracelets – you can even stack them for a layered effect.
Belts
Leather belts are a strong wardrobe staple that can offer versatility to your different outfits. Add a number of classic colours, such as black and brown, or even include a reversible model for functionality. Fabric belts can be used for casual styles, adding an extra pop of colour and texture when you head out during those summer days or relaxing weekend trips.
Sunglasses
Men’s sunglasses offer a blend of style and function with the undeniable cool factor. Aviators would be my personal choice, but wayfarers can be an excellent backup, too – both have a timeless design that complements most face shapes and offers a comfortable fit.
If you have an active lifestyle, consider sporty sunglasses, which provide protection and durability while holding onto your face more securely.
Footwear And Hats
Footwear
For formal occasions, you can never go wrong with a polished pair of oxfords, brogues or loafers paired with cropped trousers during hotter seasons. Be sure to choose high-quality leather for an increased level of durability and comfort.
Sneakers are perfect for casual looks. Go for low-profile styles in neutral colours such as white, beige, grey, and black. Alternatively, make a statement with a bold, fashionable pair.
Hats
Hats can be a versatile addition to your outfit choices, yet they can also provide needed practicality. Straw hats are ideal for summer, protecting you from the sun’s rays. Likewise, beanies can defend against the cold during the winter. Fedoras and trilbies can add a vintage elegance to your formal outfits.
Choosing The Right Accessories
Consider these final tips when selecting your accessories –
- Personal style – choose accessories that complement your style
- Occasion – pick out pieces that match the formality of the occasion
- Balance – try and avoid over-accessorising; instead, select a few pieces to enhance your look
Styling accessories is an art form that elevates your style to the next level. Boost this further by utilising the correct clothing pieces to increase your confidence and make you stand out no matter the event or occasion. What is your take on my latest article?
