Gift Accessories & Dressing for Success













Purpose

Accessories for fashion are items that may be mixed and matched to enhance garments. The more versatile the accessory, the more useful it may be. Also the more it compliments an outfit, the more style it provides. Accessories may have functions, but it is not necessary.

The most appropriate accessories only add style to an outfit without making a statement on their own. They create a look. So the first step is to be able to define the look desired. Elegant, well-groomed, chic, sporty, over-the-top! The next step is to select accessories for the look. The appropriate accessory may add an accent color which may be in the same shade as the garments, in contrasting shade, or in color-wheel opposite color for drama.

Fashion Understatement

Anyone may buy clothes and wear them, but only a keen eye for glamour accessorizes properly! The idea is that the accessory pulls the garments together as an outfit and as a fashion statement. What is the fashion statement? Is it elegant, dressy, business-casual, sporty, chic, or care-free?

We are all guilty of dressing in a rush and not planning the outfit as completely as we should. If you grab a top then a skirt or slacks and cross-your fingers that it will look right with a belt - forget it. Life's not that easy. Gift Accessories should be able to help with one to three outfits in the honoree's wardrobe.

Colors

Keep it simple ~ 2 colors maximum for the garments - that's it!

Some people try three colors but it is very tricky and not in the ballpark of elegant. The key is monochrome and texture for elegant. For dressy, usually the top and bottom garments match or are monochrome. For sporty, 3 colors may work, such as red, white and blue. For business casual, 2 colors are enough. For example, navy slacks and a crisp, white blouse is a perfect start. For accessories there are choices that work well - navy sweater vest with monogram or simple brooch or stick pin. This is not old-fashion but traditional, comfortable, and respectful of co-workers and occasion for business casual. The shoes should be navy or black and closed-toe with stockings.

Accessories are about understatement to make a statement. Take a look at scarves and shawls. These items are close to the face and need to boost the facial colors, not make the person look pale. Know your colors for accessories - it is critical and unique for you. If you are buying a birthday gift accessories, take the time to notice if the recipient looks good in red and has garments that would look well with the accessory. This applies to men and women.

Gift accessories is not about the accessory, but about the wardrobe with which they may be used. If the recipient does not have a wardrobe for green, paisley scarves - do not give the person a green, paisley scarf - no matter how beautiful it may be!

Handbags

One of the fastest growing markets for accessories are designer or unique handbags that make a fashion statement.

If you are on a budget and want to buy a designer handbag for the birthday honoree, check out these sites. The handbags are grouped by designer and by price range. This makes shopping easier and quicker.

Whenever you buy designer wear on the WEB, always check the return policy. You want the opportunity to return the product for 100% of your money returned.

Texture Not Color

By mixing and matching accessories, every outfit becomes unique and refreshed. Change a belt, add a scarf, or match a handbag.

When pulling together an outfit, wear one or two colors. Adding a third color is not easy for the most skillful and experienced designer.

Watch fashion shows on TV to see how texture, not color, is used to add flair to an ensemble.

Purses change an outfit dramatically - elegant to funky with a simple purse change. If you wear bright, colored sandals, be sure to have a fresh pedicure, styled to match the clothing (sporty to dressy), and plain or neutral purse.
