How to Complete Your Look with Accessories

Fashion, Guide & Tips — By 88DB Knowledge on July 16, 2012 2:48 pm

Clothes can make or break your overall appearance. That’s why it’s important to pay attention to your wardrobe and dress to impress. However, unless you’re colour blocking or rocking patterns, plain clothes do not make your outfit complete. To really bring out your inner fashionista, you need to stand out; and that means turning to fashion accessories.

So what are some of today’s hottest, most popular fashion accessories and how do you make them work for you? Check this list out to find out!

Footwear

Don’t underestimate the power of footwear when it comes to style. The wrong pair can completely ruin an outfit – it can make you look clumsy or even sloppy.

Make sure to pick something that will match your outfit. For example, don’t match slippers with leggings and that tank top even though that’s a common look we all see here in Singapore. Choose pretty pumps for that weekend look, or sky high heels that’ll easily take you from work to fancy dinner with your man. Gladiator sandals and wedges also make good (yet comfortable) statement footwear for plain summer wear like maxi dresses or sundresses.

Don’t be afraid to own several pairs of shoes in different styles. Also, do yourself a favour and ignore all remarks about girls owning too many pairs of shoes… there’s really no such thing!

Jewellery

We’re not really referring to gold or silver jewellery here. Instead, spice things up with funky rings, OTT necklaces and boho-chic bangles and bracelets! These accessories will do you wonders, especially if you’re one to favour single colour outfits, like black. Of course, don’t go crazy with these accessories if your outfit is already bold, only don them when your outfit’s really plain. Of course, the more colourful it gets, the better!

Bags

This category needs little introduction. As women, we are engineered to carry a bag around with us, even though we don’t really have anything to put in there. However, take note that sometimes, a bag that’s too bulky can affect your whole outfit. Try different styles and see what works.

Hair

Style aside, hair accessories like hats can be real lifesavers. Having a bad hair day? Just throw on a beret or a fedora and tadah! Problem solved. Be careful when picking hats out thought. Not every style suits everyone and it really depends on many factors, such as your face shape or even the occasion you’re dressing for.

Other hair accessories to consider include headbands, dazzling clips and pins, and even stylish turbans for that truly unique look.
