Block heel
Another of my best summer accessories you need ASAP is a pair of block heel. I love block heels because it super comfortable.
If you’re in the market for a pair of comfortable heels, get a pair of block heels. You can go for mule block heels, or strappy block heels. Also, for a beginner, I highly recommend you can go for a few inches block heels. If you’re feeling confident, go for a little above 3inches.
You can elevate your looks with block heels. This you can wear for work, brunch, date or a night out with the girls.
Light Scarves
What comes to your mind when you think about the summer? I wouldn’t be surprised if you say hanging out on the beach! Now, you wouldn’t want your hair to get in the way of you having fun while on the beach. It is where your light scarf would come in handy.
I love the versatility of scarves as you can use them in almost any season. Since it is the summer period, you should opt for the lighter ones.
Asides from using scarves as a protection for your hair, you can also tie them on your neck as a fashion statement. As you pick your scarf, ensure that you choose vibrant colors and fun prints to add a pop of color to your summer outfits.
Statement Sunglasses
One thing about the summer is that it is always sunny. Some people say you can almost go blind during the summer if you do not protect your eyes. Thus, it is no wonder that sunglasses are essential during the summer season.
In 2023, oversized frames with unique shapes and colorful lenses are all the rage. Consider opting for cat-eye, hexagonal, or geometric frames to add a bold and trendy touch to your outfit. In addition, ensure to choose sunglasses with UV protection to shield your eyes from harmful sun rays. Believe me, your choice of sunglasses has a way of transforming your entire look.
My favorites sunglasses is the oversized frame. Check out my post on the best sunglasses to shop on a budget currently on sale.

Wide-Brimmed Hats
Again, the sun during the summer is usually hot and scorchy. There is always a need to shield yourself in one way or the other. The same way you need to protect your eyes is the same way you should also protect your head.
Therefore, you should own these hats. They help you shield yourself from the scorching sun while looking effortlessly chic at the same time. I love how these wild-brimmed hats always add a touch of glamor to any summer outfit.
You can decide to go for a straw hat for a beachy vibe or a floppy felt hat for a bohemian flair.
Colorful Hair Accessories
Your hair is likely one of the first things people will notice when they meet you. So, you should have hair accessories that give off a certain vibrancy, especially during the summer.
I would recommend going for colorful hair accessories as they add a playful and youthful touch to your summer look. If you look around, scrunchies, headbands and hair clips in vibrant hues and fun patterns are making a comeback in 2023. So, you do not have any reason to think or feel that they are no longer in trend.
By owning and using these colorful hair accessories, you not only keep your hair off your face, but also add a pop of color to your overall appearance.
Beach Towel Blanket
Yes, I know that it is a no-brainer for anyone planning a beach hangout to own a beach towel blanket. It is why it throws me off when I see people sitting on the bare sand at the beach. C’mon girl, you need a beach towel blanket, especially as it helps to upgrade your beach game.
I’m not here to help you decide the type of beach towel blanket you should get. However, keep in mind that they are not only perfect for lounging on the sand as they can also be used as a picnic blanket or a stylish cover-up.
You should pick one based on your personality.
Bandana
Are Bandanas still in vogue in 2023? Yes they are! What matters is how you rock them!
Your bandana should be a versatile accessory that you use in exploring various creative styling. You can use a bandana the same way you would use a scarf. One of my favorite ways is by wrapping it around my wrist as a trendy bracelet.
To get into the summer mood, you should choose ones with vibrant colors and patterns.
