Fashion Closet: Accessories

The fab finishing touches ESSENCE Editors are sporting this summer.

By Celia L. Smith · July 25, 2014October 27, 2020
01
Petite

“This python “Hipster” has been glued to my hip all Summer––literally. It holds my essentials compactly in a majorly chic way and cinches my waist for shape, what more can a girl ask for?” –– Celia L. Smith, Fashion Editor

“Hipster” python bag, Helmer, $414, hel-mer.com.

02
Triangle

“I love glasses that make a statement. These Moscot frames top my Must-Have list.” –– Yolanda Sangweni, Entertainment Editor

“Grunya” vintage sunglasses, Moscot, $270, moscot.com.

03
Cone

“When it comes to accessories I tend to steer clear of bracelets and rings, as they can feel a bit fussy to me. I do however love a great statement necklace. I usually go for larger bolder pieces since dainty and delicate necklaces can get lost or go unnoticed when you are top heavy.” –– Reneise Francis, Market Editor

“Kiwi” crystal necklace, J. Crew, $118, jcrew.com.

04
Hourglass

“When it comes to accessorizing I’m not a fussy girl so simplicity is key. I usually opt for one statement piece and stick to it. Right now I’m in love with cuffs. They’re bold and say a lot without over powering my look.” –– Chloe Williams, Public Relations

Cuff, asos, $27, asos.com.

05
Full Figured

“I can’t go anywhere without getting compliments on this bib necklace. I didn’t expect it to have such an impact because it’s small and simple, but it really takes a casual romper or simple wrap dress up a notch instantly.” ––Charli Penn, Relationships Editor

Chain link bib necklace, Torrid, $29, torrid.com.
