Before we dive into our styling tips for graduation 2022, we need to get one thing out of the way: You should be <\/span>DAMN PROUD <\/span><\/i>of yourself for making it through school and to <\/span>graduation<\/span><\/a> day! Not only should you be proud of the diploma or certificate you\u2019ll be receiving, but you should also be patting yourself on the back for making it through years of unexpected ups, downs, and in-betweens.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Graduation marks the start of your next big adventure, and we\u2019re here to help you start your new chapter in style!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Shop the Look:<\/strong> Cute and Casual Light Blue Woven Handbag<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Obviously, you and the rest of your graduating class will be wearing the standard graduation cap and gown for the ceremony, but that doesn\u2019t mean you can\u2019t accessorize to make yourself stand out in the crowd. Even if your <\/span>dress<\/span><\/a> is covered while you cross the stage, carefully styled jewelry, bags, and other accessories can help you make a statement. Remember, this day is about <\/span>you<\/span><\/i>, so wear whatever makes you feel your absolute best!<\/span><\/p>\n

Shop the Look:<\/strong> Sealed With a Kiss White Bodycon Dress<\/a>, \u00a0Allure Them In Gold and White Pearl Hoop Earrings<\/a>, Handle My Love White Pearl Mini Handbag<\/span><\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Here, we\u2019ve gathered a few styling tips to upgrade your basic cap and gown and stand out on graduation day:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Statement Jewelry<\/h2>\n
\"statement
Shop the Look:<\/strong> Marco 14KT Gold Chain Bracelet<\/a><\/span>, All You Could Want Magenta Rhinestone Drop Earrings<\/a><\/span>, <\/span>Mariposa 14KT Gold Pearl Choker Necklace<\/span><\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Jewelry<\/span><\/a> is a must-have at graduation since the cap and gown won\u2019t exactly stand out in photos. To make sure you make an impact with your jewelry, and it doesn\u2019t get lost beneath the cap, choose <\/span>statement pieces<\/span><\/a> that feature bright colors, unique details, and interesting shapes. <\/span>Earrings<\/span><\/a> are the easiest type of jewelry to style, but if you\u2019re feeling bold, we love the look of a gorgeous <\/span>necklace<\/span><\/a> or a chunky <\/span>bracelet<\/span><\/a>.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Bougie Sunglasses<\/h2>\n
\"trending
Shop the Look:<\/strong> <\/span>Waverly Pink Oversized Sunglasses<\/span><\/a>, Pep Talk White Mini Cat-Eye Pearl Sunglasses<\/a><\/span>, Cool Views Blue Oversized Mirrored Shield Sunglasses<\/a><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

What\u2019s more glam than wearing <\/span>sunglasses<\/span><\/a> to an event? Literally nothing, that\u2019s what. If you want your vibe to be \u2018red carpet\u2019 while you walk across the stage, a pair of bougie trending sunglasses is your must-have accessory. While you might look like you\u2019re trying to dodge the paparazzi, no one will miss you when you arrive looking like an A-list celeb.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Cute Hair Accessories<\/h2>\n
\"hair
Shop the Look: <\/strong>Sweet As Love Pink Organza Oversized Hair Bow<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>Polished Petals Gold and Pearl Hair Pin Set<\/span><\/a>, Blue Multi Floral Print Ponytail Holder Set<\/a><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

It can be hard to figure out how to style your hair for graduation, especially with the cap to contend with. We love the look of a low pony or bun, or something simple and classic like a bow. No matter how you choose to do your hair, adding a cute <\/span>hair accessory<\/span><\/a> is a fun way to set off your graduation cap, and ensure your hair looks cute when it\u2019s time to throw your cap!<\/span><\/p>\n

Standout Bags<\/h2>\n
\"beaded
Shop the Look:<\/strong> <\/span>Perfectly Vibrant Mauve Pink Velvet Multi Beaded Clutch<\/span><\/a>, Stunning Blooms White Multi Beaded Embroidered Clutch<\/a>, Dreamteam Bronze and Beige Beaded Coin Envelope Clutch<\/a><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

You\u2019ll need a few essentials on graduation day: a wallet, your phone for photos, and of course, extra chapstick, lipgloss, and mints! Instead of your usual school year backpack or messenger bag, let graduation be the day you carry a gorgeous embellished handbag<\/span>. While you might not carry your bag across the stage, having a cute <\/span>clutch<\/span><\/a> to pose with for pictures\u00a0 after the ceremony will make you feel extra chic!<\/span><\/p>\n
