4 IDEAL WHITE ACCESSORIES FOR SUMMER

Fashions come and go in a seemingly never ending blur of what’s hot, what’s not and what’s tepid, and colour choice is no exception. Each year brings a new palette (sarcoline anyone?) but let’s face it, if you want to stay on safe, unshakeably ‘in’ territory, then monochrome is where it’s at. Indeed, we’re of the opinion that white never goes out of fashion, and truly comes into its own in the warmer months. You can bet that come summer, we will all be wearing white trousers, white dresses and donning white accessories with abandon. With this in mind, here are 4 IDEAL white accessories for summer. 

WHITE FOOTWEAR

White shoes are not particularly practical – accumulating the smog and smut of the city with every journey to the Sainsbury’s local – but, and here’s the important part, they look really good. This (as with every) year virtually every fashion retailer will include it in their range, and for good reason. They are timeless, ubiquitous and surprisingly versatile. JD Williams, for instance, is currently stocking over 100 different styles of white shoes, sandals, and boots.

Of course, if you go for white footwear, you’ll need to properly look after them to secure their gleaming appeal. Because no one wants a pair of off white lugz, after all.

WHITE BELTS 

This year, long, quite loose fitting blouses are very much on trend, looking particularly good when worn with the baggier style of jean that is so much on trend right now. Equally, these longer blouses look especially good when worn with the back in vogue, high-waisted trouser. Although these blouses are best worn loose, deploying a belt outside your blouse can create a different style of outfit. And variety is the name of the game in fashion.

A narrow white or silver belt – neutral enough shades to go with practically any colour – is ideal for this job, allowing you to create a fuller, yet semi-tailored look that shows off your waist nicely. 

WHITE HANDBAGS

If you do opt to wear white shoes, try to find a handbag to match; a really classic look on the catwalks this season. This year, bowler and messenger bags are very much in fashion and fortunately, these look really good with most types of outfits. Who ever thought fashion could be so simple?

WHITE JEWELLERY 

To finish off your look, keep an eye out for white jewellery. Think mother-of-pearl pieces or pendants and rings that feature clear birthstones. An equally chic accessory is a wrist watch with a white face and strap. Just be sure to keep things simple; clarity is the watchword here, and adding too many conflicting colours and different tones is going to lead to a confused look.
