Stand Out with Accessories

November 2, 2015 By hautegreyfox

IMG_1773

Accessories are an essential element for a pulled together look.   They have the ability to transform an ordinary outfit and give it that “WOW” factor.  Without accessories, clothes (even high end clothes) just look incomplete and boring.  Kind of like something is missing…  Envision going to the MAC counter to get your face done for a special occasion and they fail to apply mascara or lipstick.  Well the same principle applies to using accessories to create a pulled together look

IMG_1827

Admittedly, I am pretty obsessed with accessories.  When I splurge I usually splurge on accessories.  However, you don’t have to spend a fortune to create a stylish pulled together look.  Just yesterday my friend Juelle (while shopping at Old Navy) sent a picture of the cutest pair of lace-up pointy toe flats.  I was blown away by how adorable they were.   Granted I would love those gorgeous Aquazzura or Stuart Weitzman lace-up flats but many department stores like Old Navy have similar looks that won’t break the budget.

Accessories should compliment your look.  Select pieces that will not overpower or compete with clothing.  Also, select pieces that you love.

I never ever leave home without jewelry…never.   Now granted I don’t always wear statement pieces but I find that even the most dainty jewelry has the ability to transform an outfit.

When selecting clothing I prefer classic understated looks, like this turtleneck and ankle length pants.  Can you envision how boring this outfit would be without the accessories?  Incorporating bold statement pieces with (J. Crew necklace/earring set, trendy Zara lace-up heels, richly colored Kate Spade bag and grey Urban Outfitters hat) back basic black attire transform a boring look into a extraordinary look.

Talk about instant attitude.  I  felt confident and chic or as some would say,  I was “feeling myself.” And, I didn’t break the bank.

What does New Year’s Day mean to me? No resolu What does New Year’s Day mean to me?
 
No resolutions.
 
I’ve been on that rollercoaster before, and it never left me feeling my best. Instead, I dream big — and I take it one day at a time. I create a vision board with affirmations, motivational reminders, and more. 
 
I don’t have to accomplish every goal in 2023. I just have to believe my goals are never too big to achieve. 
 
How do you approach the new year?

Wednesday Words of Wisdom - FIND YOUR FIRE #Find Wednesday Words of Wisdom - FIND YOUR FIRE

#Find your fire and do whatever it is that wakes you up, whatever it is that makes you feel alive.  Do what inspires you, what moves you, what makes your heart race. Do the things that ignite passion into your bones.  Chase your dreams, follow your heart, capture the moments that take your breath away.  Do not settle for mediocrity, you have a fire in your soul and a burning in your heart.  Do not let fear, convenience or comfort put out those flames.  Hold onto what lights them with your light.  You are capable and deserving of magic, of love, of the extraordinary-you just have to believe it.  Discover what sets a spark in you, follow the flames and light a fire so big that nothing can extinguish it - there is enough fire inside you to burn brighter than the sun.”

2022 is winding down, and I can summarize the year 2022 is winding down, and I can summarize the year with one statement:
 
I was here. 
 
This year, I spent less time scrolling — and more time seeing the beauty before me. I traveled more, spent time with family, and checked some things off my to-do list. Each of these moments brought me tremendous joy. 
 
Without a doubt, 2022 was the best year of my life. Something about my 60th birthday brought me back to the most essential pieces of my identity.
 
I’m excited for 2023. Are you?
