Dressing in a fashionable and chic way is something many women have in common around the world. Putting together various outfits is a lot of fun because of the many options that women have when it comes to clothing and accessories, such as jewelry, shoes, scarves, and belts. For example, such accessories can take a simple and plain outfit to the next level when it is done right. Below are various fashion rules to consider when getting dressed for various occasions and events.
Consider The Event You Are Attending
When it comes to accessorizing a simple outfit, it is still important to consider where you are going because certain places and events do dictate a certain look. For example, if one is going to work in a simple black dress, then they may decide to wear a subtle necklace with stud earrings and a delicate bracelet. However, if one is going to a formal event, then they may pick out jewelry that incorporates gemstones, statement necklaces, and cocktail rings. Many online websites and stores carry a selection of rings and other accessories that are very affordable and will elevate any look.
How To Wear A Cocktail Ring
When going to an evening party, it is always a good idea to incorporate a statement piece of jewelry, especially when wearing a little black dress. A cocktail ring is a great accessory to have because of it being a natural attention-grabber. Cocktail rings are rather big, they come in different styles and colors, and they can easily be paired with simple outfits. Wearing such a piece of jewelry does require a level of confidence that some people simply do not have, and that is okay, as there are many other options to choose from when it comes to wearing rings.
When To Wear Statement Earrings
Statement earrings are rather big and come in various styles and colors. They pair very well with simple outfits that are neutral in color (such as black, grey, and white) but are also great for outfits that are a solid color. However, when doing so, there is one thing to keep in mind, such as one’s hairstyle. Statement earrings pair best with hairstyles that are pulled back so that the hair is not causing a distraction, and the earrings can be the centre of attention.
How To Wear A Necklace
A statement necklace is a great addition to a more simple and casual outfit, as it will make the outfit more cohesive and it will dress it up much more. Necklaces come in various lengths, metals, materials, and designs, so it is important to choose the proper necklace based on the outfit. For example, statement necklaces are best paired with outfits that are simple, are one solid color (as opposed to a heavy print) and have the appropriate neckline for the necklace that you have chosen. For instance, an outfit worn to a formal event would probably be best paired with a statement necklace that includes gemstones, rather than a necklace that incorporates a lot of beading and leather strands in it.
How To Accessorize Statement Heels
Many women own a few pairs of statement heels that will grab anyone’s attention, especially when paired well with the rest of the outfit. A pair of leopard stiletto heels go really well with a little black dress or a neutral jumpsuit. A stiletto heel also pairs well with fitted jeans and a blazer for a very chic look when out during the day, but can be transformed into an evening look. Also, a bright colored heel will elevate the look of any little black dress from an ordinary dress worn during the day, to one that can be worn for a date night or a night out with friends.
Adding A Scarf To An Outfit
Choosing to incorporate a scarf into one’s outfit is a great idea because scarves add a sense of style to the look. For example, a scarf worn during the colder months is generally made out of a heavier and warmer material, such as fleece, wool, and cashmere, and are longer so that they can be wrapped around the neck a few times, creating a cosy and warm look. On the other hand, scarves worn in the warmer months are lightweight, such as rayon, linen, silk, and cotton. These are generally shorter, and are tied around the neck, ponytail, put around the head or can be tied to one’s purse to add some color to the handbag.
How To Choose A Belt Based On Your Body Type
Wearing a belt is a great accessory to add to certain outfits, but they must be executed well to pull off the look. For instance, a taller woman should consider wearing a wider belt so that it will make her torso more proportional. On the flip side, a shorter woman should wear a thin belt so that her midsection is not being covered up, making her look disproportionate.
When To Wear A Belt
Wearing a belt with a top tucked in is probably the best time to wear it (as long as the bottoms are worn have the proper belt loops). Wearing a belt on top of a shirt, sweater, blouse, tunic or cardigan is not advised, as this will make the person look disheveled. A dress is a great article of clothing to incorporate a belt, as this will give the person some shape while adding an element of fashion to the dress. When doing so, be careful not to incorporate a lot of the dress’s material, as it can cause it to bunch up in the wrong places, and can throw the look off completely.
The world of fashion is constantly changing, as various trends surface daily. However, knowing how to accessorize pieces one already has will allow that person to recycle clothing, instead of having to spend an arm and a leg on a new wardrobe. When accessorizing, have fun with it and stay true to yourself and your sense of style.
