words Alexa Wang

Elevate your style by investing in the right accessories. Traditional men’s fashion incorporates statement pieces that never stop trending. Our styling experts will help you look your best even if you do not see yourself fashion-forward when wearing band uniforms. We’ve curated some styling essentials that consider absolute must-haves for your wardrobe.

Discover our top ten picks for essential fashion accessories for men.

Fashion Accessories Men

Leather Wallets

What you carry in your pocket speaks volumes about your taste. A quality leather wallet provides more than its basic functionality. Choose a slim design to avoid unflattering, bulging pockets.

Wallets come in different sizes, designs, and colors. Classic wallet colors include black, brown, and oxblood. Some popular men’s wallet styles include:

  • Bifold
  • Trifold
  • Hipster
  • Zipper
  • Card case

Dress Watches

Watches serve as high-end fashion accessories for any look. Go for a dress watch and display your sense of style every time you suit up. The right timepiece catches the eye if paired with the right outfit.

Consider choosing a silver or gold dress watch with a white dial or subdial. Depending on your preferences, you will need to pick a timepiece with a metal band or leather straps for men.

Sunglasses

Give any outfit a finishing touch by wearing a pair of sunglasses. Before you purchase your eye accessory, examine your face shape to determine the best frame for your features. We recommend:

  • Rectangular frames for round faces
  • Triangular aviators for oval faces
  • Curved wayfarers for square faces
Male Fashion Accessories

Rayban is almost always the way to go.

Dress Socks

Create a preppy look by pairing dress socks with brogues, oxfords, or loafers. These closet staples vary from regular socks due to their thinness. You can keep a collection in different colors.

At the least, you should own classic black, brown, gray, and navy blue pairs. 

Bonangel has a nice Amazon shop where you can find a great variety of well-priced dress socks.

Statement Shoes

Complement the rest of your ensemble by investing in statement shoes. Footwear represents one of the chief elements of men’s fashion. Achieve a gentleman’s distinct style with oxfords, brogues, or derby, or velvet shoes. Considering that these shoes are an investment, maintenance and proper care are necessary. If you’re looking for resources like how to care for velvet shoes, you can search and find them online or check out a few shoe stores online that also provide shoe care tips.

You can also complete any casual outfit with a pair of white sneakers. If you prefer edgy aesthetics, splurge for leather ankle boots, with or without laces.

Rings

We understand that not all men feel confident about wearing rings, except for a wedding band. However, if you’re open to accessorizing your minimal style, a simple black, gold, or silver band will do the trick. On the other hand, if you don’t mind wearing something a bit bigger and more decorative, then items like these Skull Rings from BadassJewelry.com are readily available and will look great with certain outfits, particularly the more casual ones.

For men who like jewelry, we suggest you avoid mixing silver and gold. Our experts recommend:

  • Silver-tone and platinum rings for cool skin tones
  • Gold-tone and rose gold rings for warm skin tones

Chains

Appear more stylish by embracing a rising trend of men’s jewelry: chains.

Chain necklaces come in a variety of styles and sizes. You can sport chains with or without pendants. If you plan on buying your first chain, choose a short, thin chain for a subtle look. Some of the classic chain styles include:

  • Box
  • Curb
  • Figaro
  • Rolo
  • Rope
  • Wheat

Black and Brown Leather Belts

Improve your outfit with quality leather belts. These simple utility items complement all types of formal and casual wear. When you dress up for a formal event, match your shoes and belt. As a fashion rule, every man’s wardrobe must include a black belt and a brown belt.

Leather Briefcases and Duffle Bags

Carry elegant sophistication wherever you go by investing in a leather duffle bag, weekender bag or leather briefcase. Not only does it come in handy for short trips, but it also adds considerable style. We love the duffle bag for its utility. Weekender bags top the modern gentleman’s list of travel bags and come in various designs, colors, and sizes.

Carl Friedrik’s leather briefcases have been the talk of the town recently, and no wonder! They’re made out of the finest materials, come in elegant yet versatile colors and are exquisitely designed. Check them out!

Hats

Finish off your casual or classy outfit with a hat. Choosing the right hat can prove a little tricky. Revive the classic glamor of Hollywood with a fedora, or complete your sporty look with a baseball cap.

Based on your styling preferences, you can try hats like the:

  • Trilby
  • Panama
  • Bucket
  • Pork Pie
  • Derby
  • Bowler

Winding Up

Make a fashion statement with trendy men’s accessories. Why should you invest in accessories? Wearing accessories not only boosts your confidence but sets you apart from other men in the room.

Whether you plan on traveling, attending a business meeting, or enjoying a night out, you can look a little extra stylish with accessories for men!
