Accessories Make The Outfit

Wednesday, February 18, 2015

I'm an accessory lover through and through. While I fill my closet with tons of clothing that I found on sale, I will spend a little bit more on jewelry and accessories because I know that I will get a ton of wear out of them. Accessories can be worn during all seasons and last a bit longer than some trendy pieces of clothing. Even if I'm just wearing something very basic, I will still throw on a scarf or a necklace to add a little pop. Accessories can change and really dress up an otherwise boring look.

The other day I had on a very basic outfit:
jeans
tank
cardigan
boots

You could probably call my basic outfit my "momiform" because I wear those items all. the. time.

But I made sure to add some accessories to help dress the outfit up and make it look different from every other momiform.

There are a couple things that I regularly add to dress up an outfit:
necklace
bracelet
hair

Necklaces are my absolute favorite type of accessory because there are so many different styles. It is so fun to pair different necklaces with the same outfit to get a different look. I'm a huge fan of Stella & Dot because they have so many things to offer.


Bracelets are another fun way to dress up an outfit. I love basic, classic pieces and I'm totally in love with this two tone bangle that I was given as a gift from The Vanilla Tulip.


And finally, if I'm feeling a little sassy and want to dress up an outfit, I will curl my hair or style it a different way. I spent the majority of my life with super straight hair that I wore that way everyday and I'm so happy that because of blogs I've learned to style my hair in fun ways. I used this tutorial here to style my hair.


Just by adding these few things to my outfit takes it to another level and makes me feel like a million bucks!

  1. That necklace is great! I totally love accesories too but Caleb's starting to pull on things so I have to be a little more careful.

  3. Love these ideas--I can't do a ton with my hair because it doesn't hold well, but I love the soft curls that you do! And necklaces are an awesome statement piece to dress up an outfit! I like adding a scarf to an outfit to dress it up too--I think my scarf collection's doubled this year haha
