How to accessorize: 6 tips to make a basic outfit more stylish & amp.

“No matter what your personal style is, there is a right set of fashion accessories that reflect your personality.” 

Welcome to - Live Bold And Bloom With Ishika.

 

Any outfit can go from boring to stunning with the right accessories. You just need to learn to buy pieces that express your personality and remember not to overdo it. Here are some more tips to accessorizing like a pro:


#1. Choose a signature accessory - If you feel overwhelmed by accessory options, choose just one statement piece that makes you feel great and that you can wear with multiple outfits. When you’re ready to add more accessories, create balance by choosing one piece to dominate your look in terms of size or color, then layer on more subtle accessories.




#2. Accessorize every day, not just when you’re dressing up -

Accessories are not only for special days, they are for every day, to make you feel more stylish and confident every single day. No outfit is complete without accessories, it’s just work-in-progress. Regardless of your routine, try to add at least one accessory to your outfit. Even when you are just wearing a plain white tee and a denim, you can add a minimal necklace or a pair of quirky shoes to create a look that is more put together. The more basic the outfit, the bolder your accessories can be.


#3. Jewellery  - Whether your jewellery box contains just one nice watch or a host of bangles, statement necklaces, chandelier earrings, and chokers, you probably turn to jewellery when you’re looking to add a little sparkle to your look. If you’re new to jewellery, start with a subtle piece of jewellery like little diamond studs, thin hoop earrings, or a delicate pendant necklace—classic pieces that will work with almost anything.



#4. The magic of shoes, bags, belts, and scarves - 

Isn’t this self-explanatory? I’d still blabber about how the right shoes or a quirky bag can add tons of glamor to your look. Adding a pair of shoes in metallics or bright solid colors, or adding a color-blocked or blingy bag can take your basics from 1 to 10. And, have I mentioned the power of scarves? They can be head scarves, neck scarves, or even body scarves like pashminas or wraps; scarves are a single piece of accessory that are enough to turn heads. And, the good news is, these babies are no more limited to winters, you can rock them in any season.



#5. Think about colors and patterns - Accessories are a great way to add a pop of color to a simple outfit. Bright colours and animal prints be difficult to work into your wardrobe, but vibrant, fun accessories like shoes, a belt, or a scarf can elevate your look.



#6. Don’t go gaga over the idea of accessorizing - Too much bling will make you look like an attention seeker rather than an attention grabber. If you think it’s too much, it probably is. Take one or maybe two things off.

So make sure it's worth looking back on.                                                                   - Christine E. Szymanski Barbara Pachter writes in her book  The Essentials Of Business Etiquette .
