The MUST-HAVE Accessories for Your Next Holiday
Suitcases at the ready! Summer is here and it’s time to start planning the next trip.
If you’re planning your next holiday but stuck on what accessories to pack? Look no further! Here are three must-have accessories that will elevate your holiday style and make you feel fabulous.
Jewellery
Probably the easiest way to dress an outfit up or down is through the jewellery you wear. A simple black dress will look different paired with simple gold hoops compared to being worn with diamond encrusted hoops.
Whether you prefer statement pieces or delicate, minimalist styles, there's something for every outfit.
Remember to pack your jewellery safely so not to damage them while in transit.
This gorgeous Monica Vinader box is the perfect way to store your jewellery for travel. Note these pieces as jewellery options for your next holiday:
Simple gold hoop earrings for looks which are minimal
Statement hoop earrings for looks which are more glam especially in the evening
A mixture of minimal and statement necklaces to play with
A stack of bangles to add some colour and texture to your outfit, ideal for a yacht day
A chunky cocktail ring for the evening, simple bands for the day. Never take any sentimental jewellery or pieces you would hate to lose to the beach, it’s never a good outcome.
Shop at the markets and boutiques on your travels. You can always find really unique and beautiful locally made jewellery pieces which no one has back home.
2. Hair Accessories
When choosing hair accessories for your holiday, think about the activities you'll be doing and pack accordingly.
For example, if you'll be spending a lot of time in the water, you might want to pack lots of hair ties to keep your hair up.
Hair accessories are a fun and practical way to keep your hair out of your face and at the same time add some personality to your look.
Whether you prefer headbands, scrunchies, or hair clips, there are plenty of options to choose from. Add these options as hair accessories for your next holiday:
A wide-brimmed hat to protect your face from the sun
A straw trilby hat for sun protection and laid back style
A colourful headscarf to tie around your ponytail, wear as a headband, or tie to your handbag a la Hermes
Embellished headbands to bring glamour to an evening look
A set of hair ties to throw hair up into a bun
Hair pins for emergencies
3. Eyewear
Whether I’m on holiday or going to the shops, eyewear is an integral part of my every day style down to the way it can change an outfit. It’s versatility makes it a stylish accessory that can protect your eyes from the sun and add a touch of ‘don’t bother me I’m too important’. Here are a few styles of sunglasses I’d suggest you pack for your next holiday:
A classic pair of aviators for a classic look
A pair of colourful, oversized sunglasses for a playful vibe
An over exaggerated cat eye
A pair of reading glasses for your wind down with a book sessions.
Final Thoughts
Packing the right accessories can elevate your holiday style and make you feel fabulous. By packing jewellery, hair accessories, and eyewear that are versatile, practical, and stylish, you can create different looks and be prepared for any activity.
