Clothing Accessories; the secret to top-notch fashion.

0:00 0:00

Probably wondering what makes people's outfits look superb, extra or topnotch, even when you've got something similar or better than thiers.

‎Well, dearest, here's the secret, these people know how to pay better attention to little details that may seem insignificant or minor, but these little details give the spark and zazz that amazes you.

‎Accessories, Accessories, Accessories!!!

‎They are the uplifter of outfits, they take it from the bland state to looking unique mode.

F‎rom earrings to bracelets, ties, caps list them.

‎Okay, before we dive deeper mind you, it's not enough to know about the accessories, knowing how and when to use them is also as important.

‎This means, we'll be identifying our accessories, plus, knowing when, and which to match with what outfits.

‎Accesories are accompanying details added to the outfit, speaking in clothing context.

‎They range from;

  • ‎Earrings
  • ‎Necklaces
  • ‎Bracelets
  • ‎Wrist watches
  • ‎Head wears
  • ‎Ties
  • ‎Side-chains
  • ‎Scarves
  • ‎Gloves
  • ‎Bags
  • ‎Glasses & shades
  • ‎Belts

‎They're a lot, I know I cannot mention all, but these are the main/most utilized accessories.

‎Using an accessory rightly, can make a huge difference in your appearance.

‎Alright, let's begin with;

Earrings: They vary in size, shapes, colours and designs.

  • ‎Large earrings; they give a bold presentation and can attract the eyes from anywhere, they are most suitable to put on when your Outfits range from, dinner gowns, corporate/ office wears, beach gowns or sleeveless outfits.
  • ‎Medium& Small earrings; This is where the casual outfits or your daily wears suits best, it's obviously not appealing that you're on your casual T-shirt and then you're wearing some big flowery earring.

‎So, your casual outfits match here, ranging from basic tops, T-shirts, Jackets, Crop-tops.

Necklaces: Still in the jewelry category, matching style almost similar to the earrings.

  • ‎Gold/silver necklaces - for small sized pendants, they go well with your daily casual outfits, nicely placed above the attire, while big pendants fits majorly for thin-hands or off-shoulder outfits, draped from the neckline to the center of the cloth, majestique!!

  • ‎Chokers - majorly for gothic/Halloween costumes, also nice for completing the baddie vibe, blending with your already worn boots, pantyhose, shorts, basic top and a jacket.

  • ‎Pearls - Oh, the attraction that pearl gives on open-necked dresses or off-shoulder outfits, very pleasant to the eyes.

  • ‎Medallion - Permit me to say, I only see these kinds of neck accessory on the male gender, mostly  rastafarians.

‎Well, my dear males mind you that the medallion does not match every outfit, I believe the obsession won't lead you to wearing it over a suit.

‎Medallions look good over T-shirts and tank tops, or on a jacket over T-shirt attire layering as the Center of attraction in the outfit.

‎Phew!!!

Bracelets - They vary in designs too, but I'd just be focusing on the two major kinds, bead bracelets - suitable for everyday, casual outfits or beach wear, picnics, native attires, to add color and taste.

‎while chain bracelets, permit me to add wrist watch in this context, both goes well with corporate wears, dinner parties English church wears.

‎Head wears:where do I start from on the head wears, they are numerous, but I'll go with

  • ‎Hats -  the straw hats, suitable for vacation/ beach wears, while, the standard fashion hats fits for church activities, Thanksgiving etc
  • ‎Head bands - whether for the male or female gender is most appropriate for sporting activities or morning walks to keep hair from face.
  • ‎Face caps - suitable for your casual outfits, especially on sunny days, golfing and shopping.etc

Ties- Be it bow or neck ties, we both know that they are mostly worn these days by both genders, majorly for work, then dinners, even church activities.

‎Side chains- matches with your denim outfits, maxi gowns, corporate trousers too, these are outfits where they blend most.

Scarves - when I see scarves, I think Paris, it is part of their most used accessories and I must say, for fashion it's suitable to use the chiffon fabric scarves, then, while protecting from cold or wearing coats, long knitted or crocheted scarves matches the context.

Gloves - Gloves comes in categories, but I mean, we're talking fashion right, then  you want to put on the fashion gloves for thin-hands clothes, armless outfits, or off-shoulder outfits.

‎Knitted ones to match with coats and sweaters.

Bags:

‎I believe when I say bags, we all majorly think the female gender.

‎But I'll be starting off with the popular ones for the male gender, I'm talking cross-bags and brief cases; the first bag is very much suitable for casual wears, jersey over jean kinda outfit, while the other is for office/business scenarios.

‎For the ladies, it is very much a match your outfit thing, but in cases where you don't always have, dark shades of the bag like black and brown can almost always suit the case.

‎Glasses and shades:

‎Glasses, the translucent kind give the look Smart vibe and should be used for work, class, or church. While the dark lens, shades, give the classy, boss vibe good for events, costumes etc

Belts

‎Fashion belts for jeans and jorts, and plain belts for corporate wears.

‎As said earlier, I can't possibly mention all the accessories in the world, there are a bazillion of them, but these are the most common.

‎Also, the inspos I have given are the most practical and realistic styles, they may be other ways to approach styling these accessories.

‎Therefore, I appeal to you dear reader, following these inspos will give you the appropriate results you hope to get or admire on others , but as we live in a free world, feel very free to freestyle and come up with your DIY's.

‎Happy stepping-up and aura-farming as you accessorize.
