A good summer outfit starts with the basics—but the accessories? That’s where the magic happens. Whether you’re dressing for brunch, a weekend getaway, or just running errands in style, the right add-ons can take your look from simple to standout. Here’s how to accessorize your outfits this summer with must-have jewelry, statement sunglasses, and sandals that instantly glow-up your vibe.
Accessorize Your Outfits for a Summer Glow-Up
Gold Hoops That Go With Everything
Classic, lightweight, and endlessly wearable—gold hoops are a no-fail summer accessory. Dress them up with a linen set or wear them with a bikini and oversized shirt. They add polish without trying too hard.
Stackable Bracelets for Texture & Shine
Bracelet stacks are back, and they’re better than ever. Accessorize your outfits by mixing metals, textures, or beads for a layered look that catches the light (and compliments). Bonus: Stretchy styles are super easy to slip on and off.
A Chunky Chain Necklace for Instant Cool

Go glam or go home. These oversized aviators are a summer staple—and they look just as good at the beach as they do at brunch. Plus, they give great sun coverage for your eyes and under-eyes.

Easy to wear, hard to forget. These waterproof slides come in dozens of colors and patterns—from neon to marble—and instantly brighten up your basics. Throw them on with a tee dress, denim cutoffs, or a matching set.
