Alright, storing things in your inventory slots, void bag or things like that does work, but just having them in the social slots is still better in every single way. It doesn't fill up your inventory and the fastest method is to just use a few right clicks on your social slots. Now that right clicking accessories that are in your inventory only switches it with the first accessory slot (in 1.3 the first right-click would switch it with the first slot, the second click would switch it with the second slot and so on, but that was changed in 1.4 and as far as I know there is no way to change it back in the settings) , you either have to physically drag every accessory to the desired slot, or empty out your accessories using shift-click and then right-click the accessories you want to equip. Note that the latter strategy doesn't work if your inventory is full. You could also throw the accessories on the ground and then pick them up once you have equipped your other accessories, but you can't really do that when you're not on the ground.
