Hermione Underwood Shares Her Top Accessories for Spring
In her first column for Who What Wear Australia, our inspiring and well-travelled fashion contributor, Hermione Underwood from Hermione Olivia, shares what she’ll be shopping for this season. With everything from delicate earrings, to the IT-Bag of the season — you’re set to look swish for spring...
Spring is the perfect time to update your accessories. By now you’re finally getting off that couch and hitting the social scene, enjoying the balmy outdoors and rolling up your sleeves and cuffs to show off some skin.
This spring, it's all about attention to detail when it comes to accessories. I’m loving statement sunglasses, bags and shoes, but regardless of the season you will always see me in classic, simple and fine jewellery.
Keep scrolling to see what I'm adding to cart as I type.
I am a huge fan of Australian jewellery designers Sarah & Sebastian, and you will never see me not wearing my line earrings in gold. I love to collect Hermes bracelets, my favourite of all time is the Collier de Chien.
I can’t go past the latest Chloé collection (can anyone?), and if you are looking for a classic bag with versatility to take you from work, to the beach and then straight onto a plane, it’s hard to go past a classic style by Australian leather goods designer, Rachael Ruddick.
The Ray Ban Round Frame is having a moment. Is it just me or is everyone wearing them? Ultimate. DIOR is also owning eyewear, I have the Technologic sunglasses but next I’ll be adding the new Abstract and Mirrored styles. They’re out of this world.
When I'm in Australia, I shop for eyewear at One Point Seven Four (OPSF) at the Intersection in Paddington. I recently added a pair from from Australian designer Gareth Moody of Chronicles Of Never to my collection.
For day-to-day footwear, the Missy loafer by Camilla and Marc is my go to—perfect for travelling and getting around, fast. Josh Goot’s foray into footwear this season is seriously impressive. They’re going to be seen on the coolest feet around.
