Buying accessories as gifts can be tricky because you’ll have a tendency to buy more. At least I do.

How to Buy Accessories
1. Determine your price limit
Before you go shopping, determine how much you plan to spend. As you’re shopping, you might find the perfect accessory that falls right at your limit. Or, you might find a few things that add up to your limit. The important thing is to stop buying accessories once you’ve hit your limit.
2. Consider Style
Find something that will complement your friend’s style. The best accessories are ones that can be worn with many different outfits. You don’t want your gift to end up in the back of a closet!
3. Choose Complementing Accessories
If you buy more than one accessory, choose pieces that go together. This helps give your gift a theme and prevents it from looking too hodgepodge.
Great Accessory Gift Ideas
Scarves, Hats and Gloves
These warm gift options would be great given separately or together. Each piece is accented with a super cute rosette. Beanie ($14.50), Scarf ($19.50) and Gloves ($12.50) from dELiAs.
Here are a few more cold weather items. I’m loving the long glove phenomenon…particularly the fingerless variety.
Zig Zag Colored Scarf ($19.99), Long Gloves ($20.00), Long Fingerless Gloves ($28.00)
Jewelry
Jewelry is always a good idea. You can get quite a few inexpensive pieces that go together. Or, you can opt for something a bit pricier and give it alone. The ’sentimental necklace’ pictured above is just one example of the necklaces dogeared offers. There is also a necklace for ’sister’, ‘best mom’, peace’, ‘daughter’, etc.
Metallic Bangles ($4.00), Pull Through Earrings ($20.40), Sentimental Necklace ($68.00)
Purses
Purses are fun and a great bang for your buck. Clutches and wallets are perfect gifts for the trendy gals in your life.
Grab Handle Clutch ($14.00), Patent Kisslock Clutch ($16.99), Ruched Wallet ($8.99)
