Celebrate the long-awaited arrival of spring with locally sourced accessories.

By Aoife Reilly March 24, 2016

Brushed Pennant Earrings ($34), Baleen

This season, adorn your lobes with statement earrings like this head-turning set from the Ballard-based brand.

Fluorescent Half Tote ($420), Ampersand As Apostrophe

Practical, modern, and brightly bold, this fluorescent half tote from Ampersand As Apostrophe brings a burst of color to a neutral wardrobe.

Rail and River Road to Hana Tie ($77), Hammer and Awl

Classic gingham paired with a soft chambray print creates a piece that is both stylish and versatile. We especially love the hint of vintage red and blue floral print.

Karu Mariela Sunglasses ($24), Moorea Seal

Ground your colorful spring attire with a pair of dark tortoise sunglasses. The unique frame is a refreshing update on the classic circular style.

Arc Necklace ($60), Fresh Tangerine

Tone down your jewelry collection this spring and invest in delicate gold necklaces like this piece from local jewelry brand, Fresh Tangerine. You can layer it with multiple necklaces but we prefer to keep it clean and classic and wear it on its own.

Karu Jones Booties ($58), Moorea Seal

With all of the height and none of the discomfort, the everyday mule is this season’s most stylish practical shoe.

Tanner Goods Tote ($350), Hammer and Awl

Constructed to original Swiss military specifications, this canvas tote's extremely durable material of flax and nettle fibers and water-repellent coat make it ideal for spring showers.

Astrid Ring Brass and Sterling Silver Flowers ($165), Joanna Morgan Designs

Striking a chord between old and new, the local designer revamps spring florals with a brass and sterling silver design.

Flamingos Aqualina Sandals ($368), Baby and Company

Flatforms are once again a strong trend for spring, and this three-toned pair is a sleek yet comfortable option for city living.

Solar Powered Watch ($40), Prism

If you’re looking for something to stand out on your wrist this spring, strap on this colorful piece. Not only does this model have a striking dual-color strap, the dial is solar powered and made from recycled materials.

Eytys Void Tote ($210), Likelihood

Stockholm brand Eytys is the go-to for sleek and stylish unisex sneakers and now its bag collection, Void, has arrived at Capitol Hill’s Likelihood. This no-fuss hold-all is a great investment buy for future seasons.

Molly Virginia Campbell Card Case ($40), Moorea Seal

Marble prints and stone swirls make for a refreshing spring look, especially compared to the more predictable spring patterns like florals and nautical stripes. The minimalist print turns an everyday essential like this card holder into an eye-grabbing statement piece.

X-Pouches ($136), Ampersand As Apostrophe

The relaxed silhouette reigned this season's catwalks, and what better way to accessorize your casual look than with an unstructured pastel pouch from the local brand.

Aloha Sunday Hale Cap ($58), Hammer and Awl

Once spring is well and truly underway, it’s time to swap the heavy-textured beanie for a crisp new style like this floral and leather cap from Aloha Sunday.

With the days getting brighter and the evenings getting longer, it’s time to (finally) trade your winter comforts for bright and breezy spring pieces. To celebrate the long-awaited arrival of spring, we’ve rounded up our favorite accessories from local stores and designers. From geometric designs to style-forward prints, these locally sourced pieces will not only get you in the mood for the new season, they'll become the base for a relaxed yet statement-making spring wardrobe.
