3 Hot Trends in Summer Accessories, for all the College Charmers!!

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) December 23, 2011 -- 1. Hats, Hats, Hats

These trendy toppers shield you from excess sun, keep your color from fading, hide bad hair days, and look hot! Read on for our faves!

*The Floppy Hat : Currently the most high-profile style of the list, the over-sized, unstructured, worn on summer days (and nights!) will almost instantly reveal you as a trend lover. In order to keep your look balanced, ditch any other over-sized pieces in your outfit (with the possible exception of sunglasses!), keep the rest of your look simple, and pick a brim that is just the right size. Avoid anything too large, unless your goal is to cover up at the beach!

*The Cowboy Hat : Almost universally flattering, if you don’t have already have a cowboy hat in your wardrobe, get one now! Aside from its ability to create a last-minute, improvisational country girl costume, there’s something extra summery about the combination of a classic straw hat, bikini, and sarong that makes us wish we could live in this season year-round.

*The Summer Fedora : This summer’s incarnation of The Fedora Trend calls for embracing lightweight, eco-friendly materials, namely straw. This hat’s classic, sharp styling makes it perfect for more formal summer events or simply for non-beach, daytime wear. It’s a super easy way to give new life to a basic outfit of denim cut-offs and a tank, or to liven up a solid maxi dress.

*The Baseball Hat : Ideal for lazy summer days and post-beach stops at the frozen yogurt store, the baseball hat is perfect for the low-maintenance fashionista on the go. Just pull back your hair, style it into a Messy Bun or high pony, and wiggle it into the open space at the back of the hat and you’ll be good to go. Oddly enough, the combination of a grungy hat with wild hair and large sunglasses can look quite glamorous and celebrity-inspired.


2. Statement-Making Jewelry

*Bracelets: Neon friendship bracelets circa 1995 are making a comeback! Our favorite camp projects have gone glam with the infusion of stones and glittery tinsel, the brighter the better! Also hot: anything braided, over-sized (think wide metal cuffs!), or stacked. In keeping with the summer’s theme, why wear one bracelet if you can wear six?! The combination of kitschy friendship bracelets, a bangle or three, and last winter’s boyfriend watch is glamorous and fresh. Eclectic fashion at its best.

*Rings: If you live for cocktail jewelry, stock up! It’s not at all unusual to see stylish ladies rocking multiple rings on a single hand! Double-finger connecter styles, animal-inspired, and mixed-media pieces are among the trendiest styles. Unsure of where to begin? Try wearing rings on your thumb and ring fingers. The end result is fabulously over-the-top, but the distance between your digits will keep the look uncluttered. Bonus summer tip: Invest in rings in many sizes. Not only can summer heat have an effect on your ring size, but having various options will allow you to wear your jewelry on every finger. We love the look of a single, especially chunky piece worn on
