Accessories That Are Quirky and Absolutely Slay
Whether you love accessories or are just someone who spends most of their time on the internet (mostly scrolling on Instagram), you may have come across a certain insta-worthy and aesthetic looking tomato. It demands more than a glance just for how it looks. After @homocowboi captioned this rare tomato as “so Loewe, I can’t explain it” on his X account (formerly Twitter) it soon became viral.
And in fact, even reached Jonathan Anderson, creative director of Loewe! In no time, Jonathon inspired by this fruit, made an actual bag to replicate it!
This meme-to-reality scenario created a frenzy online and gave fashion lovers yet another accessory to get their hands on.
This unique accessory reminded me of some of the unique pieces worn by our favorite. ReelStars that are as quirky as the tomato bag & have all the reasons to go viral.
Here are some quirky accessories we’d spend our money on, just like these influencers:
Amrita Thakur
When Amrita posted her pictures from the Tiffany event in Mumbai, her followers couldn’t stop gushing over her unique shoes. Leave it to Amrita to absolutely slay a look that may look basic on anyone else. She always looks chic. In this demure look the touch of quirky shoes adds to the drama. These statement leather bow mules by Numero Ventuno are a conversation started and a showstopper at the same time.
Siddharth Batra
Siddharth’s insta bio says “RULE BREAKER”, well it should be “RULE MAKER” & everyone else should just follow. Time and again Siddharth has given his followers tutorials on how everything is so easy to pull off (It isn’t, he just makes it look easy). His choice of accessories especially earrings are all worthy of going viral online. Scroll through his Instagram & there have been so many times that Siddharth has absolutely rocked earpieces be it massive white floral earrings or these custom statement earrings by Outhouse. Curated for Siddharth make him look like a fashion warrior & his earrings look like his ultimate weapon.
Aashna Shroff
One of the OG influencers of India, Aashna has carved a niche with her fashion choices and makeup skills. Her Instagram is filled with looks that can be used as a reference to replicate. She recently posted her pictures in a stunning lehenga, but her choice of bag stole all the limelight. This gigantic pearl with an unusual handle is an attention-demanding piece. This bag by CultGaia is “a true objet d’Art ” as the brand calls it, meaning “a small decorative or artistic object or a collectable item” & we agree with all of the synonyms. It is an accessory when worn or an art piece on a shelf, in any case. Moreover, it’s a serve and deserves all the attention that it easily attracts.
Today it’s the tomato, tomorrow it will be something else, that will inspire brands or designers to swirl their fashion magic wand & turn them into reality. After all, everyone wants to be relatable, on-trend & more importantly, everyone aims to be viral these days. These items often go viral & are nowhere to be seen once the buzz dies down. But they always make their way into the right fashionista’s closet at the right time!
