A successful outfit isn’t complete unless it’s complemented by the perfect accessories. When we think of accessories, it’s typically a matter of shoes, bags, jewelry, and sunglasses. But what about tech?
The more that technology advances, the more modern—and
fashionable—it becomes. Now, there are plenty of easy ways to up your tech fashion
game without sacrificing form, function, or quality.
Watch Your Step
We don’t go anywhere without wearing an Apple Watch or Fitbit, so it should look really, really good… right? While leather bands are a standard-go to for dressing up a wearable device, consider pairing your smartwatch with a metal link band—it makes the gadget feel suddenly dressier and more jewelry-like. Stack it with your favorite bracelets for a layered look, or let it be a statement piece all on its own.
Listen with Style
Over-the-ear headphones are a very noticeable tech
accessory, so why not make them the most stylish thing you’re wearing? The Master
& Dynamic MH40 headphones are both attractive and functional, trimmed
in luxe leather for a sophisticated, yet vintage-inspired look. And for
great-looking earbuds, try the i.am+
BUTTONS wireless headphones. They’re crafted in a super-sleek, futuristic
disc shape (think of them as a little bit of candy for your ears).
Tech fashion isn’t simply about what you wear; it also relates to how you
decorate. For your home or office, check out Ultimate Ears Bluetooth speakers.
In addition to outstanding sound quality, the speakers come in distinctly
decorative colorways, including watercolor print, concrete, and novelty
patches.
Best-Case Scenario
What your phone is wearing can say a lot about who you are, so it’s best for your case to be of good quality and super cute. Aim for striking patterns, shimmering metallic hues, and—of course—you can’t go wrong with glitter.
A bonus to having a dressed-up phone case? It makes it so much easier to spot the phone in a lineup, from across the room, or in the bottom of a cluttered bag. So, go ahead, stand out in a crowd.
Wear Your Heart on Your Sleeve
For busy professionals on the go, the right laptop or tablet sleeve is essential for protecting an important tech accessory. So why not use something statement-making? A cork laptop sleeve is simple, beautiful, and completely unexpected (oh, and it’s eco-friendly, too). For tablets, consider leather sleeves for a blend of timeless style and desirable longevity (and make it your own with a monogram).
Take It to Go
Staying charged on the go is important, but your charger
doesn’t have to be an ugly, clunky little gray box. Now, it’s incredibly easy to
look chic while boosting your battery level. To make a statement while staying
juiced, look for chargers in bold patterns, glossy finishes, or unconventional
shapes. And for something ultra-modern, go for a marble
look.
Top-Secret Tech
Say goodbye to boring, ordinary keychains. USB
tassels provide a fun, decorative solution to a common technology quandary:
too many cords. Clip one onto your purse or luggage to discreetly bring a
charging cable everywhere you go. Depending on which tassel you choose, it’s
also a great way to add a playful pop of color to a neutral bag.
You Can
Touch This
Easy access to your phone is essential, no matter how low the temperatures drop. That’s why touchscreen gloves are style-savvy way to boost your tech fashion sense. Slip on moshi texting gloves to help you stay connected—even during frosty temps. They feature a conductive fiber on every fingertip, allowing you to enjoy full touchscreen functionality, all from the comfort of microfleece lining and a knit exterior. Smart, huh?
