According to Draugelis, gold hoops are the easiest way to add polish to any outfit, and she suggests this chunky pair crafted from 14-karat gold over sterling silver. “While I love hoops of all sizes, the ones that hit that sweet spot of impact and sophistication tend to be a hollow, medium size hoop,” she says. “Think: bigger than a huggie, but not shoulder-grazing, and decently thick (30mm is my fav),” adding that the “hollowness keeps them light enough to wear comfortably.” She also likes how this pair has a hypoallergenic post.

To upgrade weekend outfits, Draugelis likes to add a classic baseball hat like this one. “The vibe is very model-off-duty, and can make a simple T-shirt & jeans (or heck, even sweatpants or leggings) look more intentional,” she says.

The kit includes both cleaning solution and a sturdy brush — everything you need for routine maintenance.

"One easy upgrade to look more current is to swap heavy black or tortoiseshell sunglasses for a translucent pair,” says Draugelis, who recommends these clear sunnies.
