The
Importance of Accessories :
Have
you ever thought how would The Statue of Liberty look
with a black torch in her hand? Doesn't the very thought
make you shudder? That just shows how important is
it to have the right accessories, for 'clothes alone
do not maketh a man'. Likewise when you shop for clothes,
you should always keep in mind which accessories would
go with them. For e.g. a white bag looks simply horrendous
on a black outfit. Belle shoes are out of fashion.
Sandals look awful on tapered jeans. And so on…
The
accessories that you wear reflect your personality.
They add that extra something to your personality.
Choosing the right accessory is as important as choosing
your clothes. Anyway, like clothes, the accessory
market has also expanded quite a bit.
Shoes
:
Let's
start with the foremost accessory that is a must...your
shoes. The shoes that you wear give the very essence
to your outfit. While Sports shoes suffice for casual
wears like jeans or shorts, be very careful with the
kind of footwear that you use for formal wear. Shoes
should be stylish but not at the cost of comfort,
so those pencil heeled shoes are just not worth the
amount of pain and discomfort that they cause you.
Besides if you cannot carry them well i.e. you trip
or something then they will cause embarrassment as
well. Right now platform-heeled shoes are very much
in fashion. They come in chic geometrical cuts, which
gives a very sexy look to formal dresses.
Bags
:
Next
we come to bags. Long strapped ones, short strapped
ones or small stylish ones, whichever you buy, always
choose the color carefully, for it should be such
that it goes with most of your outfits. Crotchet bags
or knitted bags look great. Cloth bags with bright
colors and flowery patterns are also in vogue.
Jewellery
:
As
for jewellery, you can buy necklaces, anklets, finger
rings, earrings, pendants and even navel rings, whatever
goes with your outfit. Esprit's platinum bracelets,
chains, watches and finger-rings look cool and are
very popular among the younger generation. Diamonds
are forever...need I say more? Gold looks better on
traditional wear. But the flavor of the glamour world
now, is jewellery in white gold.
So now that you know just how to brighten up your
image, make the best use of accessories and then just
count the number of admiring glances that you will
draw.
