Top Men’s Accessories to Wear to Impress

A well chosen accessory can change any outfit from looking like you threw it on to gaining those double takes in the board room. If there’s one thing that men don't do enough of, it’s accessorising. Even if you have a solid wardrobe, it’s the little details that make the biggest of statements.

A Clean Factory Rolex GMT-Master II Bruce Wayne may be the crown jewel you didn't know that you needed. The good news? You don't necessarily need a seven-figure timepiece to make a good impression. The right accessories communicate style, confidence and personality and all without saying a word. So, how else can you make a statement with your accessories?

1. Use watches. They’re way more than just timepieces. A good watch isn't just a way to check the hour when you’re out with friends or dealing with leading a meeting. Classic styles like a stainless steel or leather strap watch really do work with any outfit. Whether you are heading to a meeting or a weekend brunch, a watch can show that you pay attention to the smaller details. For those who love a little flair, a bold and sporty chronograph or a minimalist dress watch can be a subtle way to express taste and sophistication. Bonus points for a Batman moment in the GMT-Master II.

2. Use belts that actually match. Belts are an accessory not just a way to hold up your trousers. But, a mismatched belt can ruin an otherwise solid look. Stick to the high quality leather in neutral colors - black, brown or tan - that complement your shoes. Consider a belt with texture, too, if you want to have a little flair. The belt is the unsung hero keeping your outfit together - literally.

3. Sunglasses that command attention. Sunglasses are both functional and stylish and they instantly make you look both cool and unbothered. Aviators, wayfarers or sleep metal frames suit most face shapes and they can make even the simplest tee and jeans combo look like a magazine spread. Just make sure that they fit you because oversized frames don't always look on trend. 

4. Pocket squares and ties. These aren't just for those ‘old world’ folks, you know. For dressier occasions, a pocket square has a place and a tie is a must. Just don't forget the simple rule that a vertically stripey shirt should be paired with plain, not stripes! Pocket squares should match your tie and it shows that you have style and know it when you know how to dress a suit well.

5. Leather, leather, leather. Think bags. Think shoes. Leather really does have a place and you can invest in high quality leather knowing that it’s going to look good. It’s a signal of sophistication and you can embrace it heavily. Bonus points for functional accessories that are actually useful!

Accessorizing isn't just about overloading yourself, but about the thoughtful choices you can make. Pick the pieces that complement your look and you’ll make your whole self pop.
