A practical and inspiring guide to how to style, wear, buy, and care for every kind of accessory, from the New York Times best-selling author of How to Get Dressed.

Costume designer and writer Alison Freer is beloved for her sassy, rule-breaking fashion advice, which emphasizes that style should be fun, personal, and functional. Instead of prescribing what to wear or own, Freer empowers you to wear whatever you want-and shows how to pull it off-with humor and wit. In The Accessory Handbook, Freer breaks down every type of accessory-from hats and hosiery to jewelry, bags, and shoes-and explains how to best shop for, care for, and wear each with flair.
