Avoid being a slave to trends and fashion by building a long term wardrobe of accessories that are certain to stand the test of time and never go out of style. The best way to make sure your closet will still be acceptable next season is to build an arsenal of accessories and jewelry. The jewelry box may be the most important aspect of a woman’s style.
The accessories can mix and match to go with any outfit and even change to look of clothing all together. A perfectly selected piece of jewelry will make a simple day dress transform in to an appropriate dress for an evening dinner. Gold jewelry or other metallic pieces will go with any clothing color or print. You will also be able to use gold pieces with other jewelry colors. Many people do avoid mixing metal types when wearing jewelry. For example, if your earrings are gold, avoid wearing a silver necklace.
Women who want to give a feminine appearance may choose to use jewelry with softer lines and even add a soft colored scarf around the collar. These can be easily changed out to a bold color scarf and jewelry with loud colors of bold lines. The more dramatic the jewelry piece, the more drama your presence will create in the room. If you want attention at any particular event, consider letting your accessories do the talking.
If you are unsure of what to wear consider the following guidelines. Pearl earrings go with anything. Simple studs will make an understated elegant look. If you want drama you will need to go with something else. Consider taking a crystal brooch and including it in a grouping of two or more on the same shoulder. A handkerchief or scarf can be worn around the top of any blouse or along the edge of a jacket. This softer look minimizes lines and wrinkles on older women.
