Accessories pull an outfit or a look together in an undeniably chic way that no amount of adding another item of clothing or removing one can do. 

There’s just something about the way an on-trend hat, the perfect pair of shades, a noteworthy bag or a sublime pair of shoes can elevate a look from okay to outstanding, a fashion feat that couldn’t be replicated by anything other than a hero accessory.

Accessories are also an excellent option to reinvigorate a favourite look from a previous season, giving it a fresh, new season twist.

With Online Shopping Night just around the corner—running for 60 hours* from 6pm on Tuesday, October 22 until 6am on Friday, October 25—now’s the perfect time to plan your accessories update ahead of summer. When the thermostat reaches “balmy”, you’ll be prepped and ready to step out in style in an on-trend look pulled together by an in-demand summer accessory that will probably have already sold out by the time summer actually arrives.

Here, we’ve pulled together nine key accessories to consider investing in before summer arrives, including the must-have hat of the year (a bucket hat) to the shade shape to consider adding to your sunglasses line-up.
