Chic Summer Accessories ~

How chic are these? ~

If you love wearing flats, summer's must-have accessory is the Alexandra Sandals by OKA-b. Who said you can't be comfortable and stylish? I wear OKA-b's nearly year-round. I've got a "bling thing" going on with sandals and the colorful jewel tones on these add just the right amount of sparkle. They will match nearly everything in your summer wardrobe. Every pair of OKA-b's come with a two-year warranty. Made in the USA and available in Pearl {shown} or Dirty Martini for $40 ShoesThatLoveYou.com. 

Summer Soiree? Don't forget your earrings! 

Shabby Apple's light as a feather Dakota Earrings are the ideal summer accessory when you want to need a little something to dress up an outfit but still want to stay cool. Sterling silver with french earwires, they will take you from the office to cocktail parties by the pool. And if you need a cute dress to wear to that party, Shabby Apple can hook you up! Of course you can wear these all year, but wouldn't they look darling with the sandals above? $34 at ShabbyApple.com.

The bold bright colors of Jilzara's Large Bead Antique Bracelet will make it a summer fashion staple. Handcrafted using 15mm polymer beads separated by spacers with an antique finish. Lightweight, the beads remain cool even in the heat. A durable elastic cord makes it easy to put on and take off. Complimentary gift box. $27.99 at Jilzara.com.

Wear your passion with a novel and fun t-shirt from What'sYour Ista? There's an Ista shirt for just about everyone's favorite pastime or passion in a range of eye-pleasing colors. Shirts are made of pre-shrunk soft cotton and make a great conversation piece. If you prefer a loose shirt for the beach, order a size larger than normal.
