An accent pertains only to how one sounds, that is, how one pronounces words. A dialect pertains to pronunciation as well as particular words that are commonly used among speakers of that dialect (ex. soda vs. pop vs. coke, or elevator vs. lift), perhaps certain grammatical structures common among that dialect (ex. he isn't vs. he ain't, or he goes vs. he be going), etc. A person's accent is only one aspect of their dialect.
