10 Accessories Every Lazy Girl Needs In Her Summer Wardrobe
It doesn't take much effort to be stylish when you have these things.
Summer is the ultimate time to embrace being a lazy girl. You can roll out of the house in your bathing suit with wet hair and pretend you just came from the beach and no one will ever know. The best part is, all you need are a few basic pieces in your wardrobe—I'm talking jorts, a cropped white tee, etc. Once you have the building blocks of a basic outfit, you can add personality to it by piling on the accessories, which BTW, takes little to no effort. (YASSS.)
These 10 accessory trends are purrrrfect for lazy girls, and will fool everyone into thinking you're just naturally stylish AF.
1. Skinny scarves
Tie a skinny scarf around your neck to add a colorful flair to your outfit. You can go for a floral scarf for a vintage, feminine look, or an edgy black scarf to make your outfit more grunge. If bandanas are more your speed, you can also get the same effect as the skinny scarf by tying it around your neck.
2. Chokers
Unless you've been living under a rock, you know that chokers are the hottest accessory of summer 2016. The '90s staple has made a full-on revival because it can be worn with literally ANYTHING from a basic tee to an evening gown. Chokers add a cool aesthetic to any outfit.
3. One-piece bathing suits
One-piece bathing suits are all the rage this summer, and they're not just exclusively for the beach or pool anymore. You can wear one-piece suits as an accessory to a daytime look by throwing on a pair of stylish, high-waisted shorts over it. Or, you can get one with an embellished neckline, which will add a glamorous vibe to whatever look you're going for.
4. Retro sunglasses
Everyone wears sunglasses in the summer, but standing out with a retro pair will definitely make you look like a fashion-conscious Instagram blogger. Sunglasses can 100% be the focal point of your outfit, and they look great in selfies. Kudos if you can find a true vintage pair, but if not, you can definitely pull off the retro-inspired look with some modern shades that have a thick, colorful frame.
5. Flower crowns
Obvi, flower crowns are a Coachella staple, but they can also be worn to the beach or just out and about on a lazy summer day. Beyoncé wears flower crowns, so should you.
6. Layered necklaces
Layered necklaces pair perfectly with just about anything because they add a subtle touch of style. Wear them with your favorite crop top, a denim shirt or even a swimsuit to turn your style game up a notch. We're all for pairing these long necklaces with chokers and shorter pieces, too
7. Baseball caps
With athleisure being one of the biggest trends of summer, it only makes sense that baseball caps are in style. The sporty hat isn't just being worn with athletic wear though—it's being worn to the beach, with skater skirts, and basically anything imaginable. Plus, it blocks the sun from your face, so there's a bonus to looking badass.
8. Bomber jackets
Coats aren't always necessary with scorching summer temperatures, but they do make a great accessory. Bomber jackets popped up everywhere last fall, and will only get bigger in the coming months. Instead of grabbing a light sweater when you go out, grab a bomber jacket instead and drape it over your shoulders for a chic, evening accessory.
9. Platform sneakers
Just like baseball hats, sneakers are also a huge trend that stems from athleisure. Summer is typically the time for sandals, wedges and open-toed shoes, but sneakers are becoming more and more popular, as fashion leans more towards low key comfort. Platform sneakers especially are both comfortable and stylish, and pretty much every off-duty model is wearing them right now.
10. An eye-popping lip color
Of course, any way to fool people into thinking you put effort into your appearance is to rock a bold lip color. This summer has seen all sorts of vivid lip colors, from dark purple, to electric blue, black, and nude. You can literally add a different personality to your look by changing up your lip color, so be sure to make room in your purse for multiple colors.
See, fashion can be fun when it's not a lot of effort!
