How To Style Accessories to Transform Any Outfit
A simple thing like changing out your shoes and your handbag can, in fact, swing your outfit into a whole new direction.
Apricot (my suit) loves royal blue (my tee shirt), it also loves black and white print which helps me know that it also sings against higher contrast prints llike my tee.
Colour theory is everything for an impactful outfit but then we can elevate it further by bringing in the friction.
In the above outfit, I softened the edgy masculine boots by adding the feminine, more curvy handbag. The friction here is tough vs soft.
In the below outfit, the friction is beach vibe relaxed day sandals vs going out more nighttime clutch bag.
Then, with my suit having side stripes on both the jacket and pants, I am able to bring in a 3 level print clash with tee, suit, and gazelles.
Due to the playful "She's definitely not going to work" vibe, I chose my Director's bag to create the friction of "Hang on, maybe she is off to her CEO office".
Begin with "colour theory" for an outfit of impact, then check that you have your "light, Dark, Colour and a Print" formula in play, and finish it all off with our Friction formula.
Three things to check when buidling your perfect outfit and that's how YOU Make It Look Easy!
