How to Accessorize

"Could you give me some advice on how to put accessories together with an outfit?"-A Reader

So in order to answer this awesome question, I have took some very simple outfits and accessorized to make them fabulous.

Here, I took the very classic combination of a T-shirt and jeans and added some color. Colored accessories are the key when you have an outfit that has neutral colors. I personally love black and yellow together, so I added yellow ballet flats and a bracelet. If you're going to add a contrasting color, don't add too much. A simple gray bag is just right to finish off the look.

If you're wearing an outfit that already has a lot of color in it, you should accessorize with silver or neutral colors. In this outfit, we have a really bright, colorful skirt. The neutral shoes and bag go perfectly because the colors aren't conflicting.

So, there's some basic tips on how to accessorize an outfit using color. Enjoy, and ask me if you have any other questions!
