ac·ces·sor·ized

Roll out of bed,  shower, brush your teeth, groom you hair, put on clothes, grab a breakfast bar, and out the door.  We do this same routine, on average 5 times a week! That need to stay in the bed 10-20 minutes longer makes all the difference between "getting dressed" and "putting on clothes". Like most, its a hassle to pry myself from the bed! Every morning I'm usually holding on to my pillow for dear life, trying to squeeze in 10 more minutes of sleep. Everyone knows that being "fabulous" takes a little more time than simply putting on clothes. On mornings like this, I usually throw on a pair of jeans, grab a white tee, glam it up a notch with a cute wedge, a few bangles, a big bag and I'm out the door...

Styling is the art of transforming a look, by adding details and creating a theme. The key to making any thing look great is ACCESSORIES!!!

Whether it's adding small details like a studded earring, a nice watch, or going more dramatic by adding an arm full of arm candy or a huge bag, accessories can be all the difference in "putting on clothes" and "getting dressed"!

 

It can get super expensive trying to keep up with every new look, or trend; So what I do is keep it simple and "Stick to a theme". Whenever you shop, find items that will compliment things you already have. (Ex: if you have a red shoe, get a red bag, red earrings, red bracelet, red lipstick etc.) This way you don't have to beat your brain trying to get 'this' to match 'that'! You can wear something as simple as a t-shirt and jeans and dress it up. It's not rocket science, its actually very easy, it doesn't take a lot of time, and gives you a lot of range!

I've included a few examples with items out of my personal closet that illustrate how accessorizing can transform the most basic pieces into an entirely different look.
