Style Rut? Accessorize Your Way Out: Simple Pieces That Make a Big Difference
We all fall into them—style ruts. That feeling where your clothes feel repetitive, your outfits feel flat, and getting dressed becomes just another task on the to-do list. But breaking out of a rut doesn’t always mean a full closet overhaul. Sometimes, the spark comes from something small—like the right accessory.
Accessories have the power to pull a look together, make an old outfit feel new, and reintroduce a bit of joy to the getting-dressed process. Whether you're rotating the same basics or just feeling stuck in your style, these picks from Esme and Elodie offer an easy way to rediscover your personal look.
Add Shape with a Statement Belt

When your go-to outfits start to feel shapeless, a belt can change everything. The Textured Metal Black Belt adds a polished edge to oversized sweaters, shirt dresses, or flowy cardigans. It’s structured but not bulky, and instantly gives your silhouette some definition.
Try this: Layer it over a tunic or open cardigan to create a waistline where there wasn’t one. Suddenly, your outfit looks intentional—without needing to change your clothes.
Elevate the Everyday with Gold Huggies

Minimal jewelry can go a long way, especially when your wardrobe needs a reset. The 14K Gold-Filled 13mm Huggie Earrings are timeless, low-maintenance, and endlessly wearable. They work with everything from jeans and tees to dresses and blazers.
They’re especially great for anyone easing back into accessorizing. No big statement, no fuss—just a polished finishing touch that goes with your mood, not against it.
Reach for Meaningful, Wearable Jewelry
If your outfit feels like it’s missing something, a necklace can be the quiet detail that ties it all together. The Mountain Cutout Necklace offers just the right amount of charm without overpowering your look. It’s delicate but still interesting—and easy to wear every day.
Layer it over a crewneck tee or pair it with a button-down for a subtle statement that makes a simple outfit feel considered.
Accessories That Actually Change How You Feel
Style ruts aren’t really about clothes—they’re about connection. When you feel disconnected from your wardrobe, you start to feel disconnected from your own style. Accessories offer a low-pressure way to reengage. A belt, a necklace, a pair of earrings. They’re small, but they bring a sense of care back into the process.
If you're ready for something a little more hands-on, Esme and Elodie offers personal styling sessions and wardrobe refresh appointments to help you work with what you have—or figure out what’s next.
