Accessories are like icing on the cake
A woman can never have enough pairs of shoes. For me, it is accessories! They are like icing on the cake; they instantly add “Wow” to your total look. Sometimes that is all you need to complete your outfit, a statement piece of jewelry like a chunky necklace, a cocktail ring or a nice bracelet watch. Accessories can also be used to enhance or camouflage your face and body. For example, by simply adding a necklace can make your face and neckline look more balanced especially if the depth of the neckline doesn’t look right on you. Shorter necks can be elongated by wearing longer necklaces. Throwing layers of chains over a turtle-neck will make one look ultra chic and not look like a stuffed mutton!
Accessories for Spring 2010
Spring accessories are making its statement loud and clear. The new trend in accessories are big bold necklaces in lightweight material like lucite (see photo, left) and semi-precious gem, rock (see photo, right). Because of its transparency, these necklaces will easily go with all of spring’s prints i.e. stripes, florals, digital prints and tribal. It instantly wows your outfit! And you can pile on the layers and go for chunky bold designs as the lightness of lucite will not overwhelm even if you are on the petite side. A friend of mine recently wore layers of chunky transparent necklaces over a white top and a zebra print cardigan. So chic and fabulous looking!
