So you've got a great summer wardrobe... but what about accessories? We'll help you accentuate the positive with the perfect extras.
(WSVN) -- If you want a handbag that makes a statement...there's only one way to go and that's with a Hogan.
The newly opened Coral Gables Store at Merrick Park is the latest location to pick up a bag favored by Sarah Jessica Parker and Sharon Stone.
Elisa Carnevale from Hogan says, "It's young, fun and casual. You can wear it casually or you can dress it up."
Hogan bags this season are big and colorful, with plenty of pockets and zippers, to hold all those things a girl just can't leave home without.
"If she needs something she doesn't have to look through her bag. There's pockets for phones for your keys, so everything is accessible."
And if you're really feeling real, grab some matching shoes while you're at it.
Wrist bags are another must have.
Practical little purses that dangle from your wrist...
Christian Dior's Opera Clutch handbag is a little pricey, but there are less expensive versions out there...
"This is a great bag to take you from day to night."
Famed jewelry house, Bulgari, also has an accessories line....brightly colored bags in tangerine, lime green, red, and bright blue will make any outfit sparkle....
Get yours in a grainy or patent leather... whether it's small for night or big and roomy for day, Bulgari bags are not just pretty, but practical.
Mary Cunsolo from Bulgari says, "The fact that you can take it from day to night for a woman, you know, anywhere our lifestyle is we work all day and we're always running and we need something practical but yet fun and fashionable."
The line is complemented by matching sunglasses in every color you can imagine...
"The look again is very big, colorful, geometric shapes."
And when it comes to sunglasses, bigger is better....wrap yourself in a hot new pair of wrap around sunglasses by Chanel, Gucci or Ferragamo.
Paola Ekelund from Sunglass Hut says, "You've got to have a very good pair of sunglasses, especially down here. Of course, you have to, you have to look cool."
If big isn't your thing, then a frameless pair might work for you....no matter which you choose, Sunglass Hut has a shade for you.
"Pink, blue, green, silver, it's fun. You know, it's supposed to be fun the glasses."
