We’re all about a good trend and we’re all about some good trendy summer accessories. But first, I feel like we haven’t just said hi on the blog lately, so hey friends! Today feels like the perfect day to talk all about the best trendy summer accessories we’re loving at the moment. When it comes to jewelry and accessorizing overall, we really are pretty minimalistic.
Here is the rundown: throw on our fave Daniel Wellington watch, some rings, one or two necklaces (three if we’re just being crazy), maybe a bracelet and we’re set.
The Best Summer Accessories
It’s kind of overwhelming with just how many accessories there are, especially ones that are trending. So many brands, shops, and styles! But that’s kind of the fun part about trendy accessories and accessories in general. Do you have that one favorite place/online shop/brand for accessories that you always go back to? (Phew, that was a lot of words we just wrote out for one sentence). Anyways, We FOR SURE do & we love finding new places, so be sure to share your faves with us.
Taking the minimalistic approach to accessories, we’re going to be sharing a few of our favorite shops we find ourselves going back to that won’t break the bank and such GREAT quality. You know when you get something new and it’s the best feeling being able to use or wear that item? That’s seriously how we feel every time we put on our trendy summer accessories. It’s true, they’re the best… at least in our eyes!
Daniel Wellington Classic Petite Bondi
Before cell phones were around, I use to wear a watch all the time. I mean how else would you know what time it was? I truly forgot how much I loved wearing a watch until I got my Classic Petite Bondi in 32 mm. It is the perfect summer accessory that you will see me wearing all the time.
And can we talk about how perfect this all-white watch with rose gold is? It makes the perfect modern statement to any look.
Daniel Wellington Classic Petite Melrose
My watch dreams have actually come true because I have been wanting a rose gold mesh strap/watch for a while now. I think I may be one of the pickiest people when it comes to wearing jewelry!! I don’t know what it is, but I always feel like I can ONLY wear a few pieces of jewelry or it’s just too much. Weird because I love the look of layered necklaces, a ton of rings, or watches + bracelets. And it’s super obvious looking at our accessories upon accessories board on Pinterest.
Anwayyysss, what I’m trying to say is I wouldn’t normally be wearing a watch because I don’t like the feeling of having something on my wrist. But this Classic Petite Melrose in 28mm seriously passes the test. It’s comfy, the perfect size for my wrists, and looks oh so good if I do say so myself.
Daniel Wellington Canterbury Strap
Are we a little too excited that you can switch out your straps on all of your Daniel Wellington watches? Maybe, but no shame over here. All you have to do is go to their watch band selector and then:
-
select the collection of watch you have
-
the color of your watch
-
the size of your watch
-
and then you get to choose a new band you want… pretty darn cool!
AND, for Independence Day 2018 you can celebrate freedom with a complimentary canterbury strap with any classic or classic petite watch on all white dial watches.
The Best Trendy Accessories
The three shops were about to mention are some of our faves because they’re trendy accessories that will always stay in style. For us, it’s important to not just find trendy pieces that we love at the moment. However, trendy pieces that aren’t going to go out of style in a year or even in a few months.
We talk about James Michelle a lot on here. But that’s because we just really really adore her jewelry and adore her as a person. Not only is she always making us laugh with her Instagram stories. However, you can tell how hard of a worker James is & how she pours her heart into her passion.

What is there not to love about every single piece of their dainty jewelry? For my 50th birthday, Lydia purchased this “xo” best friend necklace for me that we both wear. Also, it represents our blog since we always sign off with, xo.

I agree .. there are SO many accessory choices out there and for someone who takes a minimal approach to jewelry, it can be overwhelming! I love the DW petite watches for that reason! Classic, minimal, and great quality!
