Because the right accessory can take you from basic to bold in seconds.

I am a contributing writer and former BuzzFeed Shopping fellow and I love writing about the latest fashion trends, the cutest home decor, and what beauty products are actually worth adding to your makeup bag.

Unless otherwise specified, all sizes in this post are listed in women's.

Plus, they come with two different backing options (great if you always somehow lose them around the house). 

Promising review: "My outfits suddenly become more sophisticated and confident due to the exquisite design and bright sheen. All-day comfort is guaranteed by the lightweight feel, and my mind is at ease because of the sturdy design. I now always carry these earrings in my jewelry collection, whether it's for a special occasion or just to add some sparkle to my everyday outfit. Not only are they accessories, but they also make a sophisticated and classic statement. 100% would recommend!" —Nolan

Promising review: "I absolutely love this bag!! I needed something to use when I’m traveling, especially for trade shows and meetings. I’ve always lugged my backpack everywhere and finally got fed up with it on a trip this past week. I also wanted something that was classy-looking and had a full zipper. I love the material because it’s easy to clean. It looks almost exactly like the Longchamp bag, too, which is the main reason why I got it. I’ve actually been using it daily by putting my small purse in it and can fit other things in as well (a small jacket, a water bottle, a small reusable bag, etc.). It has two inner pockets near the top of the bag. One is zipped, and one isn’t. It stays on my shoulder and doesn’t slip off, unlike other bags I’ve had. I’m curious to see how well it holds and for how long, but so far I’m very impressed and very happy with the quality!" —Kelsey

Promising review: "I love these tights. The polka dots are cute, and the tights are really silky. The fit was perfect." —Greg G.

Promising review: "Why spend money on Ray-Bans or any other high-end brand when you can have the same quality of sunglasses for $15?! These are by far the highest-quality sunglasses I have ever owned. They are durable, sleek, and effectively block rays. I now own three pairs of Sojos, and I will continue to purchase this brand. It's a bonus that these sunglasses also come with a protective pouch AND cleaning cloth." —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "SO happy with the purchase. This bag fits my work laptop (17.3 inches), my personal laptop, my iPad, my portfolio, my Kindle, and their chargers, with room to spare. The material is pretty good quality and has stood up well so far during my frequent travels. It looks so high-quality that I had a coworker who owns a Béis bag say that our bags look the same. But, honestly, I think this bag is better than the Béis work tote (a controversial statement, I’m sure). So much so that when I got a Béis bag for Christmas, I ended up returning it so I could keep using this tote! Definitely a must for young professionals who aren’t ready to shell out hundreds of dollars and commit to a designer work tote yet." —Hannah Rodlund

Get it from Amazon for $32.59+ (available in six colors/styles). 

Promising review: "I LOVE this bracelet!!! It looks so expensive and is heavy-duty. If you want a tennis bracelet without spending thousands of dollars, I HIGHLY recommend this!" —Gabby Little

Promising review: "I bought this bag looking for something similar to 'that one brand' that was affordable. This bag is absolutely gorgeous and looks identical. When I opened the box, it smelled a bit weird, but I took a leather cleaner/conditioner to the bag with a microfiber cloth, and it no longer smelled, and she looked nice and shiny. It took me a while to figure out how to organize my things as it is a unique shape, but once it was organized, I loved it." —lisa keegan

Promising review: "Let me spill the tea — it's giving major Gucci vibes! This bag is a total alternative, and I'm here for it!!!!! It's super cute, perfectly sized, and I'm completely obsessed. The snake print design adds that touch of luxury and edginess that I crave in a purse. Whether I'm rocking a casual look or dolled up for a night out, this bag pulls everything together like magic. The chain detail? For the price, it's everything. Talk about a chic statement piece. If you're all about that Gucci-esque style without breaking the bank, then get ready to turn heads and have everyone wondering, 'Is that a Gucci?' Oh, honey, it's a fashion secret we'll keep to ourselves." —Reets

Get it from Amazon for $26.99+ (available in 24 colors/styles).

Promising reviews: "Gorgeous bag. The material is so easy to clean, and it's beyond sturdy. The zipper pocket inside is great for discreetly storing things. The length is great; it sits perfectly under my arm with a little room still. Overall, great purchase." —Mary

"Gorgeous bag. The color, the style... It's very well made. It was a gift for my sister-in-law, and she loved it!!!" —Jennifer Ch

Promising review: "I absolutely love these sunglasses! They suit my face beautifully and elevate any look with their stylish design. The gold details on the sides are such a stunning touch — reminiscent of high-end Miu Miu sunglasses but at a fraction of the cost. They’re lightweight, comfortable, and feel durable. I’ve received so many compliments already. Highly recommend these for anyone looking to add a chic accessory to their collection!" —Arsalan sheikh

Promising review: "Absolutely Obsessed – Instant Elegance in a Clip! The quality is amazing — sturdy enough to hold all my hair in place (even on humid days), yet lightweight so it doesn't tug or slip. The gold finish is stunning — not too shiny, not too matte — just the perfect touch of glam that elevates any outfit.  Whether I’m running errands in athleisure or heading out for date night, this clip instantly pulls my look together. I’ve gotten so many compliments, and I love that it adds a bit of luxury without trying too hard.  If you're thinking about it, just get it. You’ll wear it way more than you think. Giving 5 stars isn’t enough!" —Saskia S.

Promising reviews: "I love this watch. I wanted a basic but attractive watch to wear every day, and I don't like the big, clunky ones that are fashionable now. I haven't worn a watch in years, but I needed one at my new job, and I like how the silver and gold ones go with everything I wear. The dial is easy to read, too." —Barb Taubel

"Love this little gold and silver watch. I ordered it instead of going to a jewelry store and paying a high price for a battery for my expensive watch. I have very small wrists, and the expanded wrist band fits perfectly. It looks expensive for an inexpensive watch. Definitely recommend buying this watch." —janet

Promising review: "They are SO comfortable and breathable, and my poor footsies are ruined from wearing heels every day when I was younger. These look fabulous and feel great. What a great find! I’m gonna have to buy them in another color now." —JeGo

Promising review: "Beautiful, simple, classic pearls and gold. I love this necklace with additional gold chains, or simple, classic, and elegant standalone. Just get it, you will love it." —Tiffany S.

Promising reviews: "Seems to be very high quality for price, great color and stitching! Inside is now leather, the same as on the outside, rather than the lining mentioned in previous reviews. Seems to be holding up very well, came with the cherry charm too! No zipper issues and sits comfortably on the shoulder. Would definitely recommend, and people have even thought it was a much higher quality purse." —Alexa

"Luxury on a budget! Love this bag!! Perfect size for a dinner date or night out on the town! I can pack all the essentials with ease (wallet, keys, phone, etc). And after many wears, I can confidently say that the quality is fantastic! It’s also a near-identical alternative to the Coach Swing Zip! One of my favorite finds!" —Melanie

Promising review: "Love this headscarf. I have used it in several ways: as a headscarf in the traditional sense, as a headband, and as a bun cover. I have also used the pink version as a tie with a collared shirt. Be creative with it!" —jusstjess

Promising review: "These sunglasses are so great, I love them. They are super lightweight, and they look amazing on. The shape and fit are perfect, and they are very comfortable. They are great because they are so inexpensive, you don't have to worry about them, but they are also well-made and good quality. Highly recommend if you want a nice pair of sunglasses that don't cost a fortune." —Amazon Customer

Promising reviews: "Better than expected! The color variations make it look so much more natural and expensive." —Kathryn Copley

"I am very pleased with the quality of this necklace for the price. It’s quite heavy, so the beads aren’t plastic or acrylic. I love the many colors on the necklace; they make it a great piece for summer. The magnetic closure is strong, and it doesn’t easily pull apart like some closures of this type. I bought an extender in case it was too short to go around my neck, but it wasn’t required-it can be worn right out of the box." —m foreal
