New York Fashion Week began last Thursday, and although the runways are showing off the trends for fall and winter 2016-17, that doesn’t mean we can’t get a taste of what’s trending now. We looked to the streets to see what the fashionable show-goers were wearing. Check out our 5 favorite and simple street style accessory trends.
1. Drop Earrings
Last year was all about the statement earrings and it seems 2016 has a similar forecast with a twist. The statement of choice at NYFW was the playful drop earring. We loved the look of the long chain ending with a memorable bauble. This is an easy look to replicate and is perfect for any occassion.
2. Big Rings
Layering has moved on from the neck to the knuckles in a big way. Fun and funky rings or colorful cocktail rings are the best way to achieve the look. In 2016, unless you are married, stay away from a single ring. This simple look can take your outfit to the next level under any conditions.
3. Hoop Earrings
Usually fashion revivals are of the vintage variety. This year, the hoop has been revitalized with fun exaggerations. You can make this look your own by choosing a hoop that suits you. Whether it’s outrageously oversized, a play on the drop earring or anything else, this is an easy style to have fun with.
4. Pendant Necklace
The pendant necklace is one of the easiest street style trends to incorporate into your daily wardrobe. The simple look can be as easy as one single pendant, or layering different lengths and sized pendants. This trend is perfect for the person who is knew to jewelry or accessorizing or someone with a casual style.
5. Watch Me
Finally, when all other accessories fail, the watch remains. This year, we saw so many people ditch the jewelry and finish their look with a simple time piece. If a look was already busy with colors and patterns and non-jewelry accessories, then a watch was worn for a simple addition. If you aren’t a jewelry fan, that doesn’t mean you can’t have fun with your accessories. Just add your favorite timepiece!
