Elevate
Your Style
Sunglasses and earring pairings you can
use to elevate your style this spring.
By Rachel Stern
It’s time to go big with accessories this season.
The miniature eyewear and handbags that
dominated 2018 are slowly fading out, making
room for the oversized and the bold: a glamorous
look that continues to stand the test of time.
On the runways at Dior and Prada for Spring-
Summer 2019, we saw big bold sunglasses in
vintage-inspired looks. Strutting on the runways
of Stella McCartney and Gucci were sunglasses
with a sporty, futuristic feel; imagine super-tinted
ski goggles with embellishments and oversized,
abstract curves.
Turning to jewelry trends, 2019 is sticking with
the glamorous, the glitzy and the embellished.
Models displayed bright pearls, plenty of lavish
beads, geometric shapes and luscious hoops.
Ariana Grande owns this look in her 7 Rings music
video, where she’s heavily beaded and layered
with gems. An 80s look is also reemerging with
retro and oversized heart hoops and studs.
Anyone can bring these bold combinations
of eyewear and accessories together to add some
style to the everyday:
The Classic Look: Pair Ray-Bans with oversized
pearls or tortoiseshell hoops for a sophisticated
and understated look.
Cool and Edgy: Make the streets your catwalk
with black shield sunglasses a la Gucci and
chandelier-style beaded earrings.
Chic Glamour: Miu Miu showcased gorgeous,
giant shield glasses with gem-speckled rims,
which would pair well with silver hoops for
maximum glamour.
