The accessories are especially covetable this spring: futuristic sunglasses from Prada, lively little bags from Louis Vuitton, embellished socks from Fendi, and bejeweled headpieces from Valentino. Street-style darling Chloe King shared her tips for piling them on without going overboard.
Embrace the Flirty Little Bag …
… And let it dictate the rest of the styling. King grabbed a pink peplum top and popped on a fanciful headpiece to mimic the purse’s confectionery vibe.
Make Every Accessory Count (Down to Your Socks)
Maximalist dressing is about so much more than bright colors and mixed prints, says Chloe King. She punched up this monochromatic look with playful stockings.
Consider Time Travel
How do you pull off futuristic sunglasses without looking like a Martian? A retro hat and necktie. Polka dots in different weights and sizes (but the same palette) add visual interest.
Stick With One Bold Color
The burgundy headscarf and cape coat make a groovy pair. Wide-leg jeans play into the ’70s vibe.
There’s No Such Thing As Too Much Bling
Why stop at a bunch of necklaces? King added a pearl brooch, button earrings, and a cocktail ring over a men’s oxford shirt and tie.
Don’t Get Too Matchy-Matchy
Despite the elegance of the accessory, the rest of the styling is intentionally comfortable, breathable, and “not too precious.”
Pile On the Belts
King paired her classic leather belt with two different chains: One is slinky and embellished, the other large and circular. Mixing metals, textures, and sizes makes the look.
