The accessories you need to fit in at Fashion Week
Aug 30, 2018
Yep, it’s that time of the year again. With most of us heading out to fashion week (New York, London, Milan and Paris), it’s important to pack strategically with classic yet on-trend accessories that will work with almost any outfit.
No matter if you’re likely to be snapped on the street or front row at all the shows or will be keeping up with the new collections via the comfort of your own home (and Instagram feed), this fashionable list of must-own items – ranging from straw bags to stylish sunnies – include everything you need to stay on point this season.
A Straw Bag
Accessorize your week-long wardrobe with a spacious and versatile straw bag (they come in various sizes and shapes) from Beach Daze – the pieces are inspired by the founder’s love of travel. But wait. It gets better. You’ll even be able to customize it with a favourite phrase or your initials and choose from the label’s selection of thread colours. We love it even more after knowing that each bag is handmade in Thailand by local artisans.

A statement necklace
Dress up your designer jeans and T-shirt ensemble (or your little black frock if you’re heading to an event) with this stunning gold necklace from Chanel’s enchanting autumn/winter 2018 collection. Why pile on the accessories when one statement piece will do the trick?

Combat boots
Ditch the heels (you’ll thank us later) and dash from one show to the next in Stuart Weitzman’s comfy but fashionable mid-calf Veruka boots (HK$5,272). The military-inspired pair features leather wraparound laces, stretch sock detailing and a 70mm rounded block heel for extra height.
A fanny pack
Slip your phone, wallet and lip gloss (what else do you need?!) into Valentino Garavani’s VLTN Rockstud Spike belt bag. If you feel like it, then go ahead and sling it over your shoulder. This hands-free accessory was undoubtedly one of the biggest fashion trends this year.

Lip gloss
It’s important to nourish your lips even when you’re on the go. Charlotte Tilbury’s high-shine Collagen Lip Bath has been infused with Marine Collagen, mustard sprout extract and coconut oil to hydrate and create a fuller-looking pout. All you have to do is glide the heart-shape applicator over your upper and lower lip.
