FASHION: ACCESSORIZING DO'S AND DON'TS
When it comes to accessories, many individuals are unaware of
the appropriate items that will best work with their outfit. No
matter how much fashion experience you have in the clothing
world, even the best of us are at a loss when it comes to adding
spunk and pizzazz with accessories. There are so many options
available, it is easy to throw up your hands and agree to live a
life completely void of any accessories. Instead, look carefully
at these accessorizing do's and don'ts before you swear off
these delightful items that will add polish to any outfit.
Accessorizing Do's
Do choose accessories that will enhance your outfit. Look at
your outfit's colors, feel, and texture when choosing
appropriate accessories. Work to find accessories that will
successfully benefit a variety of wardrobes to stretch your
budget and the items available to you.
Do strive to follow current trends when accessorizing your
wardrobe. Fashionistas everywhere follow the fashion magazines
to see exactly what is considered in and what is totally out
when it comes to accessories. Gone are the days of leg warmers,
so strive to say current with your accessory options and buy
items that are with today's hottest trends.
Do strive to have that one signature piece that accessorizes
your outfit. Many individuals work around a particular piece or
a theme when it comes to accessorizing their outfits. For
example, look to include a silk scarf in all your outfits or
make your signature piece a stunning brooch or necklace that can
easily be added to any wardrobe.
Accessorizing Don'ts
Don't choose an accessory that overpowers your outfit. Remember,
it is called an accessory because you use it to work with your
wardrobe, not completely overshadow you or your clothing. Avoid
large, flashy, or brightly colored items that can take the focus
away from you.
Don't wear every current trend at once. Although it is important
to stay up to date with today's hottest trends, a do can quickly
become a don't when worn together at once.
Don't choose the same, expected pieces each time. If your
signature look includes a particular accessory, look to
incorporate it in unique ways with each outfit. Turn your
signature scarf into a head wrap or tie it to your handbag.
Place your signature brooch on unique items, like a belt or
fasten it to your back pocket. Work to keep your signature item
fresh and innovative.
