Finding the right accessories is key to making any basic outfit into a *lewk.* There are days we forget to set an alarm and oversleep, or some days when we’re just too lazy to put any effort into getting ready.
These are all the accessories you need in your closet for when you just can’t deal with getting dressed. The best part is you probably have all of these in your closet, but we’ve got you covered if you don’t. Get ready to look hot in a hurry, babes. These are about to be your go-to closet staples!
These are the ultimate summer staple, but they’re cute enough to wear year-round if the weather is nice enough. A pair with a little design will take your typical Monday outfit of jeans and a t-shirt to the next level. On the other hand, they make a flowy dress casual enough for class. They’re super comfortable, too. You might never want to take them off!

This accessory is the obvious answer to help turn a boring outfit into something fabulous. There are so many different options out there, so you’ll definitely want to stock up. Don’t want to splurge on a new necklace? Get the same effect by layering on a ton of different necklaces in the same color family. You can wear it with jeans, sweatpants, a neutral colored dress, anything will look amazing! I prefer wearing it with a messy bun to keep it from looking too formal.

Add a pop of a fun color to a basic all-black outfit to make your blah look more exciting.

These also look great with a funky graphic t-shirt, or an edgy leather jacket. You truly can wear them with anything!

Wear a bunch in all shapes and sizes if you want to be extra trendy, or just wear one to bring a whole different vibe to your outfit. This is an accessory you don’t even have to think about. Just put it on and you’re ready to go! Don’t want to deal with a chunky ring around your finger? Pile on a bunch of dainty gold rings and it will look just as cute.

It doesn’t matter if you’re wearing jeans or a swingy dress, this is one accessory that will show the world you’re not playing any games with your outfit. A big belt cinches your waist so you can show off your gorgeous figure, and you can get one in a fun color to add another level of chic. I’m not usually a belt girl, but I’ll admit a good chunky belt is great for when you’re not feeling any other accessories.
