Accessories are a tricky game in the fashion world. On some days it's easy to find yourself wearing too many at once, and then on other days, it's always noticeable when you're bare of anything that sparkles or shines.

On top of that, the styles for accessories are constantly changing so staying on top of the trends can be challenging.

Though the tides of fashion trends tend to come in and go out every other decade, there are some pieces that are timeless. Here are six accessories that never get old and make your #OOTD pop every time.

Go-To Neutral Purse

@katespadeny

It can get tedious to constantly be switching the contents of your purse from one bag to another. Don't get me wrong, I love a bold statement purse as much as the next girl, but a reliable, neutral-colored bag that matches my everyday outfits is way more useful.

When selecting a purse you know you're going to use a lot, stick to blacks, whites, creams, and tans!

Stackable Rings

Dainty and stackable rings can make a simple outfit rise to the next level. This style of ring is easy to find in sets that have a cohesive look, so you can wear them all at the same time without overloading your hands.

Sticking with similar tones and metals for your rings adds flair to your jewelry game but doesn't distract or seem tacky.

Retro Sunglasses

Sunglasses are probably the most practical and versatile accessory you can buy. Almost all of them are going to protect your eyes from the sun but only a few styles are going to last you through different trends in fashion.

Dark black lenses with a metal, black, or tortoise frame are going to match every outfit no matter the season.

Classic Hat

If you're a hat person, finding one that you love is crucial and can be a distinctive piece within your personal style. You can go with a classic beanie, a baseball cap, or even a wide-brimmed felt hat like the one pictured above.

All of these hat styles have stood the test of time and pair well with just about anything.

Hair Scarf

Hair scarves are an accessory that can easily perk up your look when you're having a bad hair day! You can tie it all back into a ponytail, tie it into a headband, or go for a simple half-up-half-down look.

They don't just work in your hair, but other parts of your outfit, too. For example, you can tie it around your neck like an ascot, onto your belt loops to add a little flair to your denim, or onto the strap of your purse!

Bold & Basic Earrings

Regardless if you have your ears pierced or not, earrings are a simple and bold accessory to throw into an outfit to make it shine a bit more. You can go with a super on-trend style or stick with a timeless gold hoop.

Whether it's a Tuesday in the office or a Saturday night at the football game, it's perfect to add to whatever look you're going for.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
