Prom is an unforgettable night filled with dancing, games, and making memories with your best friends. And since it’s the perfect event for showing off your personal style, you’re going to want to look and feel like the best version of yourself. There’s a lot that goes into your prom look, from makeup to hair to shoes and more–and of course, it all starts with the dress. And once you’ve honed in on your perfect pick, it’s time to take your prom style to the next level with accessories. (Trust us; you won’t want to skimp on this detail).
So whether you’ve chosen a showstopping gown in metallic sequins or you’re going more understated with a classic navy prom dress, you’re going to want to top it all off with some elegant, on-trend extras. That’s why, ahead, we’ve rounded up our current favorites for the season: scroll on for the must-have prom accessories that will make your night–and your look–unforgettable.
Statement Earrings
Adding a pair of bold earrings instantly elevates any understated look. If your prom dress is more minimal, or you’re rocking a short and sweet haircut or updo, complement it with a pair of statement earrings. These standout styles will frame your face and are perfect for dangling over bare shoulders.
Sparkly Rings
Rings are fun and versatile, and can be as subtle or overstated as you’d like. They’re great accessories to stack on top of or next to each other, so have fun experimenting with different colors, shapes, and styles. Plus, a shimmery ring helps your gorgeous manicure stand out.
Stylish Hair Accessories
Hair accessories are a great way to draw attention to your look without looking over the top. If you’re keeping your hairstyle to a minimum this year, consider adding gold clips, a glittering rhinestone headband, or an elegant white bow to your hair to tie your look together.
Dainty Necklaces
A delicate necklace goes great with any dress choice, whether you’re sticking with a minimal look, or wanting your ultra-sparkly dress to be the main event. Adding a subtle necklace will accent your glam or romantic gown and add just the right amount of shimmer.
Chic Clutches
Trust us, you’ll want a clutch on your big night. Not only will it take your look to the next level, but it’s your most functional accessory, holding your phone, keys, and gum all night! Choose a clutch that shows off your personality and also looks gorgeous against your dress, whether that’s a sleek acrylic box clutch, a rhinestone purse, or a beaded envelope style!
