Hot List: Luxury fashion accessories we’re currently coveting…

There is nothing quite like an array of bright colours on the runway – the shoes, the bags, the glorious energy and the showmanship of spring fashion is thrilling. We’ve lusted at the latest Spring-Summer 2022 collections and now curated a tight edit, an ‘it’ list of must-have luxury fashion accessories to jazz up the season.
BRB, off to a little shopping spree ourselves!

Boho Chic

You know spring is here when shades of sunshine and sunflowers are back in style. Adding a touch of chic to trendy street-style is Prada. Just check out their Canvas Hobo Bayadere Print bag and Leather Triangle shoulder-bag make for the perfect splash of colour across the body, while the lime green Asymmetrical sling-back pumps give the legs the attention it craves.

Slip on the Signet ring and a pair of Stone Jewel clip earring or drop earring, and snap, snap — snap a shot (or a few) of your OOTD with Polaroid’s OneStep+ camera, then you’re good to go.

Glam Slam

You say glam, we say Roger Vivier. Striking, stunning and absolutely show-stopping, the French fashion house brings a shine to this season’s styling numbers. From head to toe, pinch a touch of glistening glamour with the Tiny Stars hair band, RV Broche Plexy hair clips, Buckle and Pearls Pendant earrings and RV Bouquet Strass ring. Slip into a pair of Bouquet Strass pumps and finish your ensemble with RV Bouquet Strass Envelope flip mini pouch.

Ching-ching Chanel

How do you spell timeless elegance? C-H-A-N-E-L. Whether it’s a bedazzling necklace in metal, glass beads and strass, a lustrous bracelet or necklace in metal and with the iconic inversed CC monogram, a casual street-style ring in metal and resin or a modish jewelled belt in metal and resin.

Soul-y Hermès

Any boss babe will know that one cannot simply slap on one look and go, you best believe that whatever’s inside her Kelly handbag is enough to carry her looks from day-to-night. Just check out this edit of Hermès essentials for the season.

Featuring a Colormatic Kelly 25 handbag, a Wink glasses case, the Poudre D’orfevre face and eye illuminating powder, the Rose Tan Rosy lip enhancer, Rose Feu silky blush powder and a travel blush brush.

Complete the ensemble with the maison’s Hermès On The Beach bracelet and Colliers ET Chiens bracelet on one wrist and the Heure H watch on the other; the Cliquetis scarf around the neck and over the fusion amulette Kelly pendant. Don’t forget the Polaroid OneStep2 camera to capture all the memorable moments that follow.

Sassy, Sultry, Scarlet

How best to spice up your cocktail dress with a touch of sass? Pair it up with the sultry red touch of Christian Louboutin’s Chick Up heels and clutch on to the Paloma Top Handle Mini Pink handbag.

That’s so Gucci

There’s nothing that fits a strong, modern women more perfectly than a bold shade that says, “I’m Here”, whether that is with Gucci’s Blue Felt with Enameled Dionysus Buckle hat or the Bamboo 1947 mini top- handle bag. Or perhaps, something more subtle but just as assertive like the Jackie 1961 small shoulder bag and metal with gold finish and crystal ring.
