Fashion is constantly changing, but at the same time remains very recognizable for most of us. Trends reverse and so there is not much new under the sun every day. With a few exceptions, because our lifestyle does change and that is why people sometimes need new, handy tools. Last year, three new accessories caught our eye that will upgrade your outfit and also make your life a little easier – in some cases anyway.
Jewels for your AirPods: the pod cuffs
When the AirPods first made their appearance, a world opened up to us. Want to listen to music and call without an annoying cord that gets caught on door handles and tumbles into your cooking pot? Yes, please. But we soon came to the conclusion that we lost those cordless earphones a lot faster as a result.
From pod cuffs offer a stylish solution to that problem. The ear accessories not only look beautiful, they also ensure that you no longer lose your AirPods. And you don’t even need earring holes for it, because the jewels simply wrap around your ear, just like an earcuff.

Are the pod cuffs not for you, but are you interested in a way to lose your AirPods less easily? Then the rope chain maybe something for you. That looks a bit like the modern version of the old-fashioned glasses strap, so you can simply let your AirPods dangle around your neck when you’re not using them.

From telephone to handbag: the telephone cord
Another tech-related accessory that makes us happy. Admittedly, a few years ago we would have laughed at the idea, but now that smartphones are getting bigger and rarely fit in your pocket, phone cords are a real godsend. The principle is simple: you put your smartphone in a custom case and then clip a fashion-conscious cord to it. You then wear it over your shoulders or around your arm, so that you have your hands free and at the same time always carry your phone with you.
The telephone cord is undoubtedly one of the most popular smartphone accessories of the moment and therefore comes in all possible versions. We ourselves are big fans of Ateljé, the brand of the Dutch Yara Michels and her friend, a company in full development that pays extra attention to sustainability.

Bling for your sneakers: the lace charms
No money to buy a pair of limited edition sneakers, or simply no desire to spend a fortune on shoes that still look worn after a few months? And still want to dress your feet nicely? Then the lace charms the ideal accessory for you.
Admittedly, the kitsch content is high, but the sneaker chains do give your sports shoes an upgrade. You can also easily change them, so with one lace charm you can dress up different pairs of sneakers. The brand that popularized the trend is undoubtedly Lace Charms of the same name, but a quick Googling will suffice to find some more budget-friendly alternatives. Or you can put together a shoe jewel yourself, that is of course also possible.
