Are you a “shoe-obsessed” person? Perhaps you can’t get enough of fashion accessories? Or maybe you are just mad about clothes? Well here’s my answer: I’m all of them. Who can get by fashion with just one element of it?

Difficult as it may seem to keep up with all of what fashion brings, the key is to focus on essential pieces. It makes your life simpler, yet making sure you cover your bases. We may not get the hang of matching accessories with our outfits for the first time, but don’t give up! Read on for some quick tips and before you know it, they will grow on you!

I am certain that everyone has some wardrobe basics that are versatile and easy to match. But how do you make a simple outfit stand out and most importantly, make it look…You? Matching your outfit with jewels or charming trinkets can instantly make your outfit pop. It boils down to the colours and sparkles to set a contrast against a muted backdrop (i.e. your wardrobe staple).

1. Necklaces

Anything big and flashy is considered a statement necklace. It creates a wonderful effect by making a simple outfit look bold yet feminine at the same time. Blake Lively does it with a pretty splash of colour to her simple white top.

How about simple, delicate necklaces? Busy tops are the perfect occasion to match your dainty accessories with. It is not visually overwhelming and adds a personal touch to your outfit. Nicole Warne looks gorgeous by doing so.

2. Earrings

If you are in the mood to go a little louder without going OTT, match a colourful top with statement earrings. They give the same effect without competing against your shirt. Take a cue from American socialite Olivia Palermo.

Undeniably, a pair of statement earrings has such versatility that makes it essential for an outfit booster.

3. Rings

Cocktail rings are the hand version of the statement necklace. They are the sure-fire bet to add a punch and whimsy to a look.

Can simple ring bands work to the same effect? Of course, they can! So go crazy with them. Stacking and layering these delicate pieces will make your hand a conversational piece.

4. Watches

You know what they say: punctuality is a virtue. A watch will keep you on time and it’s a great layering accessory. Celebrity stylist Nicole Shavez tips us with this fashion nugget. “A watch is as much an accessory as it is a timepiece. A gold watch is a great way to dress an outfit up – try leaving it loose so it looks like a bracelet”.

An oversized watch from Michael Kors is a great accessory to pile those bangles on.

Slim watches don’t have to look boring when you pair it with lots of arm candy.

Lo and behold! Wristwear is my favourite part of accessorising! I love its versatility and how it gives a fashion-forward vibe. Make a classic statement with a chain centrepiece, keeping the rest of your outfit muted.

Or play up a show-stopper outfit, and keep it simple with leather studded cuffs.
