‘Tis the season to be jolly and that means you’ll be sampling cocktails to canapé©s to your heart’s content when you attend the multitude of office holiday parties, friendly get-togethers and festive after-work cocktails. However, while doing so you have to keep it chic; so we’ve found 10 haute holiday accessories for you under $100 that will make this season seriously stylish.
Wrap It Up
No accessory kicks the style quotient of an outfit quicker than a beautiful printed scarf and the two we found will become a wardrobe staple. The grey checkered number from the British retailer ASOS is cut wide allowing you to wrap it around your neck or body making a bold statement. For a more subtler and versatile look, our country favourite orange clothier Joe Fresh has this sweet black and white infinity scarf to keep your wonderfully warm.
1. ASOS Oversized Scarf with Tassels, $34.11 USD; 2. Joe Fresh Circle Scarf, $24.
Head Gear
Holiday head gear doesn’t have to be boring, Club Monao’s Darci Hat brings bedazzled to a whole different level by making it rain coloured crystals. For indoor head appeal, Zara’s pearl hairband is the perfect piece to crown your chic hairdo.
3. Club Monaco Darci Hat, $89.50; 4. Zara Pearl Hairband, $19.90.
Clutch This
Just like a pair of shoes we can never have enough handbags in our closet; they make an elegant and excellent accessory option when you’re having a haute holiday. This bejeweled number from Aldo has more bling than a Tiffany’s diamond ring and it only costs – wait for it – $50. Unbelievable! However, if your taste is more minimalistic you’ll love this leather, black and white Iris & Ink clutch.
5. Aldo Enroelid Clutch, $50; 6. Iris & Ink Leather Clutch, $95 USD.
Go Go Gloves
Create your own Breakfast at Tiffany’s moment, Canadian style, with these dramatic opera gloves by Danier. When you want the durability of leather and the warm feeling of wool opt for these two-tone gloves from Spanish retailer Mango; quilted leather on the palm side and rich maroon wool on the other makes for a stunning combo.
7. Danier Vienna Lamb Leather Opera Gloves, $79; 8. Mango Leather Wool-Blend Gloves, $59.95.
Jewellery
When you can’t afford a real pearl necklace opt for the fashionably faux kind. This jaw-dropping bauble from jeweller Kenneth Jay Lane, with its collar style shape and oversized pearls makes an é¼ber chic and contemporary piece. However, if you want to show-off your love for bling these Swarovski earrings combine the delicacy of lace and the bad ass attitude of tattoos into one beautiful bauble. Both of these jaw-dropping jewels works perfectly when worn with a black button-down shirt, cropped trousers and your favourite heels.
9. Kenneth Jay Lane Gold-Plated Faux Pearl Necklace, $50 USD; 10. Swarovski Belle Geometric Black Pierced Earrings, $65.
