Spring Accessories

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at UNH chapter.

One key thing I have learned over the years is how to spice up an outfit with great accessories.  Accessories can play a vital role to your college wardrobe because they can transform a plain “day” outfit to a sexy night outfit.
 
First and foremost, a watch is a great compliment to any outfit.  If you’ve never worn one, I suggest picking one out on the cheaper side just incase you don’t like the way it feels.  If you’ve worn one before and are looking to extend your collection, I personally love Michael Kors, Michele and Marc by Marc Jacobs.  I love the all gold, rose gold or fun colored bands to spice up a plain face.

Have you ever worn a scarf out at night?  It can add color to a plain tank or a tube top.  I suggest bright colors: they are eye catching and boost your tan at the same time!  I love this Echo Batik Parel one with Tassels found here: http://www1.bloomingdales.com/shop/product/echo-batik-parel-with-tassels?ID=599433&CategoryID=21311#fn=spp%3D4%26ppp%3D96%26sp%3D1%26rid%3D52

     

Statement necklaces are great for plain outfits or basic dresses.  I found this turquoise one on etsy and fell in love!  Turquoise is a great spring color and looks great with most colors!

As for earrings, color is always great but I love the crisp look of gold studs for spring.  I found this cable cord studs on pinterest a few days ago and need to find out where they are sold!  Studs are great earrings because they can be worn anytime with any outfit.

Bright clutches are a great staple for spring.  What’s not to love about a brightly colored bag!?  Plus, if it’s not too expensive, you can have multiple ones!  I found this orange and pink one and love it! http://www.google.com/shopping/offerdetails?docid=16558817248351383779&ved=0CDEQxhA&ei=KH5vT6DFHZXcwAXssgE
