Linda Gushes! THIS MONTHS GUSH: You spend your time staring at the clothes hoping that the perfect outfit will just come to you. When you finally do find outfit it’s mediocre at best. The answers to days like this are accessories. Accessories can be used to dress up, dress down, add pizzazz or bring together an outfit. By adding simple details you can create a completely different than what you started with. Accessories can make basic outfits look better than ever. Instead spending money buying a whole new outfit to accomplish a certain look think about what accessorizing you could add to an already existing outfit. Accessories can be a less expensive alternative to new outfits. Scarves For starters a scarf or sash can add a little flare to a simple outfit. Scarves can also pull together nice autumn outfits. Bags The right bag or purse can really pull together and outfit. There are so many different kinds of purses it is sometimes difficult to know which style appropriate for certain occasions. As a general rule smaller is better for formal gatherings, small elegant purses or petite clutches are perfect for black tie affairs. You can also really pull an outfit together by making sure that your shoes and bag match. Shoes Every woman knows that shoes are an essential part of an outfit. Personally I find that you can’t have too many pairs of shoes. Shoes can bring outfit together or add that extra something to what you’re wearing. Shoes can also be used to dress up outfits, for example a nice pair of heels can add a little more sophistication when you wear jeans. Cute flats can fun flare to casual outfits or make for a more comfortable dress ensemble. Jewelry Jewelry is one of the more commonly thought of accessories but there are simple rules that should be remembered with jewelry. There are classic pieces which everyone should have gold hoops and pearls. Pearls are especially important because they can go with most anything. Remember pearls and diamonds go great with black, think Breakfast at Tiffany’s. Also pay attention to accents and buttons in your clothing. If the outfit you are wearing has gold buttons or accents try to wear gold jewelry with the same finish . Gotta' Skate Love Linda |
