When it comes to creating our winter looks (almost) we are always drawn to the best capsule wardrobe basics, and it’s normal. After all, it’s what dresses us. However, what makes the difference between a ten-out-of-ten look and a boring one are the accessories with which we complement it. That’s why, each season I try to be more selective and keep pieces that truly add something for me.
This season I have opted for simple, well-designed and versatile accessories that share a passion for craftsmanship. They don’t stand out for being flashy or complicated, but rather for the quality of their materials, the good taste when adding details, and the neutral colors that fit into any look you have in mind.
From perfectly sized, most wearable bags to rings that add a touch of light, belts that frame the waist or sunglasses with a retro vibe, these accessories never go out of fashion, adapt to any style, occasion and age; and they have all the chances to become genuine essentials.
In my ranking: good accessories
