By Kristen Peuvion on December 19, 2014

Ask anyone in the fashion industry and they will all agree: accessories are the way to truly make yourself stand out in a world full of fashionable people. Think about it: yes your clothing says a lot about your personal style, but how often do you see someone wearing that same great skirt you have, or that same fabulous coat?

It happens pretty often, so how are you supposed to make your look unique? Accessories, accessories, accessories!

Accessories are the ultimate way to make your look 100 percent unique to your style and personality, whether it be a statement necklace, a unique scarf or the perfect handbag. And what’s great about accessories is that one of these little additions can take your simple outfit to the next level or they can change one of your tried and true go-to outfits to something completely new.

So forget about adding more clothes to your wardrobe right now and focus on the accessories! Here are some must have accessories and trends to try right now.

One Earring

Forget the standard two earrings, there’s a new way to wear your ear bling. Instead of wearing your earrings like you normally would, try rocking just one.

Stars and models have been owning the one earring trend since early summer and the trend’s popularity has only grown since then. It has been seen on countless runways and red carpets alike, so it’s time to add it to your own style now!

This trend is quirky and bold and will easily add some fun to whatever outfit you’re wearing. Go for a statement earring, not just a simple stud, to really make a statement.

The easiest style of earring for this look is definitely a drop earring of diamonds. It will go with just about any outfit. But if you’re looking for something even bolder, go for an earring that’s louder and brighter.

Faux Fur Scarf

Faux fur is having a major moment this year. Whether it be a vest or hat or whatever else, everyone wants to wear faux fur. So how can you incorporate it into your accessories?

The answer is pretty easy: just look for a faux fur scarf.

You can wear your scarf indoors and outdoors during the winter season. It will not only complete your look but also keep you warm and cozy in winter’s harsh, cold temperatures! What more could you ask for out of an accessory?!

Hand Bracelets

Finger bracelets have been on trend for a while now. Stars like Khloe Kardashian have been wearing this jewelry for at least the past year, so it’s no surprise that another new take on the standard bracelet has come about.

Now, similar to finger bracelets, hand bracelets are one of the newest accessory trend. While the finger bracelet only covered a little bit of your hand, these bracelets cover the entire hand.

This one was seen on the Alexander McQueen runway and looks super chic and bold, but you can also find ones that are more subtle and understated like this dainty, girly one worn by Jamie Chung.

Fringe Bracelet

The western trend wasn’t just big in the fall and spring of this year. It has stuck around for the winter months too, but it’s taken a different form.

The fringe bracelet was seen on a few runways like this one at the Chloé show. This is a simple way of incorporating a bit of western into your look, but in a super glamorous way.

Most people think of cowboy boots and suede when they think of the western trend, not fine gold jewelry. Add this accessory to any look, casual or formal, and you won’t be disappointed.

Chokers

There is no denying that the ’90s are back. Plaid, grunge, dark florals and tons of other ’90s classics came back in style in a big way this year.

The choker trend is no different. Many of you probably remember those stretchy colorful chokers you could get for 50 cents out of those machines at the grocery store, but thanks to the ’90s revival, chokers just got a chic makeover.

Now, chokers are a fashionable accessory that can make any outfit unique and glamorous. They come in all different sizes depending on how much of a statement you want to make, plus you can find them in any style and color you can imagine.

Make sure to keep the rest of your accessories small, or don’t wear any at all, so that your choker can really steal the show!

A good accessory can truly transform your outfit and make your look unique to you. So stop worrying so much about the clothes you’re wearing and give your accessory collection some attention too. Any of these accessories and trends will be great additions to your wardrobe, so go out there and get shopping now!
