These Under-$49 Summer Accessories Are Totally Random, But I Need Them

by Yusra Siddiqui

While I like to prioritize what's in my own wardrobe when it comes to planning my 'fits for summer vacation, what I can't resist is a good ol' cheap and random accessory. Crochet bucket hat? Yes, please. Sporty sunglasses? Add to cart. While they may be small in size, they still have a big impact on your look. There’s really no easier way to make your wardrobe feel more current and on-trend for the season than with accessories. After all, updating your hats, jewelry, and handbags is a lot simpler than overhauling all of your actual clothing, and as you’re about to see, it can also be a lot more affordable.

From woven totes to colorful jewelry, the list below is not one to miss. (I surely had fun doing research for it.) Ahead, I've rounded up 39 trendy and cheap accessories that I've not already slacked my coworkers about, but some may even have already made their way to my own cart. Did I mention they're also all under $49? Keep scrolling to find all the fun accessories you'll want to shop immediately. You won't regret it, and neither will your wallet.
