Stylin' VIDEO: Accessories!

So I know I am really pushing this accessory business, but I have to say, a little bit of adornment can make a huge difference.

This video shows you how subtle additions can make a big impact. Read below for further details.





Tip #1
Mix Colors, Textures, and Prints.
If your outfit is plain (a pretty black dress for example), that is the best base to experiment. Add a red belt, some turquoise suede pumps, some gold bangles, some black feather earrings and a vintage printed clutch that ties all the colors together. Can you envision it? I can. And trust me - it looks fantastic!

Tip #2
When In Doubt, Go Monochromatic.
One way to not mess up in this department is to keep things in the same color tone. A white blouse and jeans would look great with some long strands of pearls, a cream cuff, some pearl stud earrings, and white hair bow – add some white ballet flats and a handbag and you’re party ready!

Tip #3
Don’t Be Afraid To Go Big.
Although this video doesn’t show it, I love big oversized brooches, large hair bows, and wide belts. One of the advantages to being bigger is that we can we definitely can pull off larger accessories - in fact I recommend it! Match the scale of your accessories with the scale of your body. Don’t wear a dinky flower on your lapel. Instead, make an impact with a statement piece of jewelry – large drop earrings, a fringe necklace, or a wide beaded belt. I am getting excited just thinking of it!

Till next time,
Xoxo
