As a fashion editor, I write about accessories a lot—a lot, a lot. Designer loafers, crossbody bags, and sneakers get a lot of attention, as do quality sunglasses and classic pearl necklaces. But while many accessories garner a justified amount of recognition, I've recently noticed just how many don't.
The silk scarf that you've styled in every way possible, the white tube socks that you buy in bulk every year, the leather tote bag that carries your most precious belongings day in, day out—these are the accessories that really deserve praise. Though, they rarely get it. That is why I wanted to put a spotlight on the ones that hardly ever get a shout-out. To find out the true MVPs of the accessory world, I called on 10 of my fellow editors to share the jewelry, handbags, shoes, and more that, while often forgotten in the mix, they simply couldn't live without.
Scroll on to see which accessories are finally getting the appreciation they deserve.
