Accessories can be such a key part of your outfit and everyday life. From scarves to bracelets, Title of Work acknowledges the importance of an accessory and treats them like a piece of art. They use a red dot as their logo mirroring the concept of using a red dot on an art piece in the art world when it’s sold. We learned more about this New York City based brand and the amazing items that they create.
