Fashion Fun: The Art Of Accessorizing






These photos are from one of my favorite magazines, Elle.  I picked out these photos in particular because of the things chosen as accessories.  

Accessorizing an outfit is somewhat of an art. Accessories can essentially make or break an outfit.  If you do it correctly, it can add so much more definition and style.  The chose the top photo because it shows,  by simply adding a long strand of pearls and pearl embellished earrings, it can give a plain white shirt some glamor and sensuality.  Try to imagine this same outfit with a gold necklace or even a black string of pearls and it completely changes the look and feel of the outfit.

If you're new to accessorizing, I suggest you start out by picking up a few fashion magazines just to get an idea of things you can do, and after that, start experimenting!  Try different colors, textures and patterns and see what works and what doesn't.  You'll be surprised what colors and patterns end up looking great together.

Accessorizing Tips:
*Mix different patterns  (e.g. stripes & flowers, bold & plain, animal prints & bright colors, etc.)
*Play with different textures (e.g. corduroy & silk, lace & denim, leather and feathers, etc.)

Overall, just be a little more daring and have fun with it!  Instead of making your shoes match exactly with your bag, and your bag match exactly  with your jewelry, try adding a pop of color to an item that you're wearing that doesn't necessarily "match" with your color scheme.  This gives you a more fashion forward look and can give a regular looking outfit a little more boom bang  baby! :)
