A fashion accessory is a fashion item. It is an extra piece of material, a superficial object that is not essential to wear. People wear accessories just for the sake of style and to decorate their outfit.

Accessories are declined into a variety of items. From toes to head you can fashion your outfit with these items and a little bit of imaginativeness: color laces, stickers, jewelery, scarfs, pins, hats, badges, brooches, transfers...and the list goes on.

A fashion accessory may have a practical use: sunglasses for instance screen your eyes from the sun beams while adding a posh touch “à la Audrey Hepburn” to your outfit. Gloves, bags and hair accessories have their own utility as well.

Sunglasses is a good example of how an accessory can turn into a cult object and achieve iconic status movie stars fed up with being harassed by paparazzi found a solution in hiding behind these black-screens. People are now used to associate big sunglasses with celebrities, who often think that they can sneak around incognito on the streets. But paparazzi notice for miles around a celebrity with sunglasses, an item that became the distinguishing feature of famous people. And that's not all: metal chains were worn by punks and they remained from the 77's a peculiar feature of the punks' outfit.

Some Fashion accessories have a strong sexual tone: latex stockings or studded necklaces give hints on how you like spicing up your nights.
