"When it comes to accessories, there’s a fine line between overuse and underuse to express yourself. We like to think of our accessories as "successories" because they are the best way to go from standard to stylish like that.
Back in February, we covered the simple must-have fashion pieces every woman needs to own. This month, we are exploring specific items that can take your outfit from basic to brilliant. Read on to see which adornments are on our It list (aka, will never go "out") for women over 50."
On Gunn: Clare V backpack. The number one must-have accessory in our book is a fun daily handbag, an alternative to our standard classics. Choosing the right bag is such an individual choice, but two things to keep in mind are form and functionality for your lifestyle.On Meyers: Cuyana bag. Our favorites for daily use are a backpack or a crossbody style.On Meyers: Oliver Peoples sunglasses; On Gunn: Ray-Ban sunglasses. We love a good pair of sunnies for their ability to make a fashion statement. Plus, you can never have too many shades in your collection, especially with all the incredible styles available today.On Meyers: Tom Ford sunglassesOn Gunn: Hermès scarf; On Meyers: Louis Vuitton scarf. A flowy, oversize scarf is the most versatile accessory we can think of. Whether worn as a headscarf, a belt, or a classic accent around our necks, scarves are the perfect way to create a winning style.On Meyers: Hermès scarfOn Gunn: Hermès scarfOn Gunn: Gucci belt. Every closet needs a great go-to belt. We love a strong buckle with a classic designer monogram or a little bling. An animal print can add a bit of flair to even the most basic T-shirt and jeans.On Meyers: Gucci beltOn Gunn: J.Crew beltOn Meyers: Elodie K earrings. Are statement earrings ever out of style? We think not. A strong earring can be a game changer in framing the face and elevating a simple outfit. We like this bold and gold vintage-inspired look.On Meyers: OOMA x Melissa Meyers Glow necklace; Sarah Hendler locket; Tiny Tags necklace. When it comes to necklaces and bracelets, we love a layered look. Accessorizing like this is a fun way to express yourself by mixing and matching different styles and even multiple metals and finishes that complement each other.On Gunn: Cartier watch. With cell phones never out of our grasp and able to tell us the time instantly, wearing watches has become more fashion than function. Call us old school, but we love an oversize watch for its simplicity and its ability to make a statement at the same time.The hair clip has definitely evolved over the years. This year you can find them being worn in multiples. We like the idea of the more the merrier. Whether adorned with pearls, rhinestones, or a simple tortoiseshell finish, having fun with hair décor is so 2020.On Gunn: Lindsey Albanese clip. Now, time for a more underrated accessory. The ultimate functional gadget that you didn’t know you needed until now. No more worrying about bringing a hat on vacay and having it get crushed in your luggage. This is the perfect companion that clips onto your handbag or carry-on to hold your skimmer.
If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
