Let's get started!
Our guide is here to help you choose the best women's accessories to wear in 2024 - and to give you tips on how to wear them.
7. Bracelets
If you haven't been using bracelets before, it's time to start now. Bracelets have been among the top women's accessories for a while now and they'll continue to be there in 2024 also.
Your style has an impact on what types of bracelets suit you the best. Whether you're into classic clothes or street style or anything in between, there is a perfect bracelet out there that fits the style perfectly. Remember that a bracelet should be there as a subtle detail. Not as the centerpiece of your outfit, but definitely as a distinct part of the look.
If your style is classy and elegant and you wear blazers, pants, skirts, dresses, and high heels on the regular, your style would be best complemented with delicate chain/cuff bracelets in precious metal colors, enhanced with crystals or pearls. If your style is more easygoing and your wardrobe consists of more comfy and casual clothes, such as hoodies, jeans, tees, and sneakers, a more laid-back bracelet style might be more suitable for you. Try a beaded bracelet for example.
Today, mixing styles is a big trend. You can tell by the trend of wearing sneakers with anything, even to a party or to a club. In jewelry, you don't have to go by any etiquette (dress code events excluded), you can mix and match different styles to create a combination that pleases you. Remember, with elegant, simple and subtle jewelry, you can't go wrong.

Tip: Depending on the style of the bracelet, you can wear just one or stack many to maximize the effect. If one bracelet is not enough, you can stack as many thin chain bracelets and cuff bracelets on the same wrist as you like. Anyhow, do not match the bracelets on both of your wrists. Preferably, leave one wrist unoccupied.
6. Earrings
Earrings are one very small but significant detail. Of course, there are all kinds of earrings, including drop earrings, hoop earrings, and statement earrings which all vary in size, but most commonly used earrings are tiny stud earrings. Some might think that "there's no point in wearing small earrings, no-one's going to notice them anyway", but that's wrong. You really might be surprised by the amount of attention other people pay to details. If you're wearing small, beautiful earrings, they will be noticed.
If you're not used to wearing earrings, you probably want to start small. Get yourself a beautiful and timeless pair of stud earrings in your favorite precious metal. These kinds of earrings are great for every-day use, they go on casual days as well as in the office and on special events. For their small size, they can be combined with any necklace and hair accessories.
If you're looking for a more dashing look, choose a bigger, eye-catching pair of earrings. For example, hoop earrings, tassel earrings, statement earrings, and delicate but sizable wire earrings are totally in style in 2024.

5. Watches
One thing is sure: wristwatches never go out of style. A watch is a form of self-expression. The style of the watch on your wrist tells other people a lot about your lifestyle. That should be kept in mind when choosing a watch to wear. Some people like to own just one, good quality watch that they can use in any occasion. Others prefer to have more choice and variety and own multiple different wristwatches that they can alternate even daily.
Women's watch trends in 2024 continue in a quite simple style, similar to what we have seen in past years. Plain designs, neutral colors, precious metals, leather, and marble are all features that will be seen in the top watches of 2024. The outlook of the watches is usually very minimalist and the most common colors are white, black, gold, silver and rose gold. The great thing about these types of watches is that they are often very versatile and can be used with casual as well as formal outfits.
Keep in mind, that to achieve the perfect look, your watch metals should match other metals used in your clothes, accessories, and jewelry. This way the whole outfit combination will be in harmony and perfectly put together.
Simplicity and elegance will be the main watch trends for women in 2024. These watches are from our Watch Collection.
Tip: A watch is something other people pay attention to. We recommend having at least two watches - it makes combining your watch with your other jewelry and clothes so much easier.
4. Handbags
Handbags are one of the largest and most noticeable accessories a woman can wear, thus, making it one of the most significant and important ones.
Your handbag doesn't have to cost a fortune. If it's in good shape and looks well kept, it's enough. There's nothing worse than women wearing threadbare handbags with otherwise a great outfit. That if anything ruins the whole outfit.
You might be able to survive with just one handbag, but most women prefer having multiple bags in different sizes, colors, and styles. This is for a good reason since many occasions require a certain type of handbag. If you own just one bag, there are so many different situations where the perfectly suitable handbag is something else that the one that you own.
Another thing to consider when choosing a handbag is, to what purpose you need it for. For work or school, you usually need a spacious bag that has room enough for your books, laptop, lunch, essentials, etc. On a night out, a big bag is just in the way, and what you usually prefer is a smaller crossbody or clutch bag, that holds your essentials but not much more. There are situations like this and countless others, and having a suitable bag for all of them makes life so much better. As said before, your handbags don't have to cost a fortune, so don't worry about not being able to afford them.
The handbags below are from our collection. They are all very affordable, durable and convenient. Check out our collection of affordable, high-quality handbags here.
Tip: If you're tight on budget, focus on neutral-colored and versatile bags. Pay for quality, but not for the brand. This way you'll get the most bang for your buck.
3. Necklaces
Necklaces are among the most used accessories in the world. You can wear one anywhere, anytime, regardless of the occasion. And women truly love their necklaces, some even to the extent that they have a mountain of necklaces at home, of which they only use one or two regularly. So many women love their necklaces, though, because they tend to elevate our sex appeal significantly. In fact, it's one of the fastest ways to make a man feel attracted to you without any need for words.
Choosing a necklace that suits your style and personality the best is essential when looking for that added secret ingredient to your outfits. Because some chains that look great on others might not be ideal for you, following others might not be the best strategy. Instead, try reading about the most popular necklace trends and lean heavily on your sensations, vibes, and gut feeling. Who knows you and your preferences better than you, right?
If some necklace looks like a must-have to you, it probably is among, if not the best, choices for you. Make sure you go through multiple styles to be sure you've found the one that harmonizes with your style and looks the best. It's okay if you have more than one necklace to wear. Just make sure to be picky enough not to overspend on chains and designs you are kind of iffy about, and you'll be happy you saved that money on other necessities, like shoes or dresses.
Some of the strongest trends this year are delicate chains with a single pendant. Many use them for protection in their daily life, while others simply want their necklace to embrace their natural beauty. These necklaces are from our Necklace Collection.
2. Rings
Rings are more than just wedding bands. Wearing rings makes you look elegant and lets people know that you pay attention to details. Wearing a ring is probably the easiest way to add elegance to your outfit since it's a small accessory that basically can't be worn wrong. If you match the metals and colors of your rings with your other accessories and clothes, it's a great way to complement your outfit and make it look whole.
The three main women's ring trends for 2024 are elegant, expensive-looking crystal rings, eye-catching statement rings, and thin, simple rings that you can stack to create the perfect combination. They are all beautiful and elegant choices, just pick whatever style works best for you and goes well with your outfit.
Elegant, expensive-looking crystal rings
Expensive-looking but affordable rings often look like their costly sisters but are made of more affordable materials. Instead of diamonds, they are enhanced with cubic zircons, and instead of being full gold, platinum, or rose gold, they are plated with them. Well-cut cubic zircons look almost identical to diamonds, and cannot be distinguished with the bare eye. Since this kind of rings look a lot more expensive than they are, wearing one is a great way to add some luxe to your look, even if you're on a budget.
Eye-catching statement rings
Statement rings are the perfect companion on a night out or at a party. They are quite massive, making them a great centerpiece of your outfit. With a statement ring, you don't need other rings, since it's at its best when worn alone. Statement rings often come in eye-catching colors and designs, which suits perfectly to their ornamental nature.
Thin, simple, stackable rings
Stackable rings are very trendy at the moment. As they are stacked on many fingers, they can attract the attention, and as they are individually very subtle, simple, and thin, you can easily control the volume and placement of the rings. The most popular metals of stacked rings in 2024 will be silver and gold since they are the most timeless ones and the easiest to combine to any outfit.
If you're looking for the perfect ring, find all the rings above and much more from our collection of affordable women's rings.
Tip: When wearing a statement ring or a cocktail ring, make sure that your nails are neat and preferably polished. A statement ring draws the attention to your hands, so you want to make sure that your nails look beautiful.
1. Sunglasses
Sunglasses are both practical and timeless. Sunglasses will be extremely trendy in 2024 and they deserve the spot as the best women's accessory for 2024. Sunglasses were first created to protect eyes from all the harmful rays of the sun. Nowadays, sunglasses protect eyes just like in the old days, but they are more often used as statement pieces to showcase one's style than purely as a protection for the eyes. Some people own numerous pairs so they can match the right pair of sunglasses with the occasion, their outfit, and their mood.
A good, timeless pair of sunglasses is an accessory that you should invest in, regardless of what year it is.

Be it a casual day, party or funeral, these glasses can be easily used anywhere. If all the basics are covered, you can start playing with colors and textures, and maybe add some mirror lenses to top up the look. Find a great selection of affordable, good quality sunglasses here.

Keep Your Essentials Neat
Last but not least, you should make sure all your accessories are neat and in good shape. Now is the perfect time to go through all your essentials and see if they need renewal.
