Six Types of Fashion Accessories
Accessories can be divided into several basic categories.
1. Shoes Unlike other accessories, you will most likely wear shoes every day. While it is important to include a few neutral options (such as white sneakers, nude heels, black flats, and black or dark brown boots) in your capsule wardrobe, statement footwear can elevate the look. If you don’t find shoes that are comfortable and fun, you won’t wear them.
2. Jewelry: If you are new to jewelry, start with a subtle piece like diamond studs, thin hoop earrings, or a delicate pendant necklace. Start with something subtle, like diamond studs or light hoop earrings. These pieces are classic and will go with anything.
3. Hair Accessories: Accessorizing your hair is a great way to express yourself. Look at your existing hair accessories to see if you can upgrade. Can you replace a plain hair tie with a silk scrunchie, for example? What about a simple clip and a colorful acetate version?
4. Handbags: Different bags, from totes to clutches, are appropriate for different occasions. Handbags come in many styles and colors. You’ll have a unique accessory.
5. Belts: Belts don’t only serve a practical purpose; they are also fashionable. A belt can be narrow or wide, simple or embellished, and it will define your waist. It is the easiest way to elevate an outfit.
6. Winter Accessories: Hats, scarves, and gloves are great for adding color and pattern to your outfit, especially if you’re wearing neutral outerwear.
How to accessorize: Four tips for choosing accessories
The right accessories will make any outfit look chic.
1. Select a signature accessory. Choose one accessory that will make you feel good and can be worn with many outfits. If you want to add more accessories to your business, choose a piece that dominates the look, either in size or color. Then, layer on subtler accessories.
2. Consider colors and patterns. Accessorize your outfit to add some color. Animal prints and bright colors are difficult to incorporate into your wardrobe. However, vibrant accessories such as shoes, belts, and scarves can help elevate your look.
3. Transform an outfit with accessories. Accessorizing a business is a great way to transform it from the office into a dinner with friends. When paired with flats and a blazer, a classic little black gown looks appropriate for the office. You can ditch the blazer and switch to stilettos. Add a pair of cocktail rings, a pair of statement earrings, or even a call with a statement. You should always have a few accessories on hand for when you don’t want to change your entire outfit.
4. You don’t have to match your accessories. Matching accessories may appear more conservative. Start by adding a colorful addition over a neutral base if you aren’t sure what colors will go together. Use the color wheel for new ideas on bold color combinations.
