accessories are the secret to great style

Accessories are the secret ingredient when it comes to creating a pulled together look this, Winter.

Try these steps for adding finishing touches that create a memorable Autumn/Winter style.

step 1 Evaluate your looks

Have you been wearing the same Winter coat for a few seasons.

This is good but it might be time to update how you wear it.

Autumn is the perfect time to try something new.

Try adding a statement brooch.

Another option is to change the buttons, (and belt) if it has these elements.

Buttons can age a piece.

Look at buttons on this season’s new arrivals.

Select buttons that reflect current trends.

Alternatively, remove the buttons all together.

You will be amazed at the difference it makes.

It is also super easy to reverse this change.

step 2 RevIew your accessories

Hats, gloves, scarves can make a big difference to how stylish and put together you look.

Any easy way to update a look is to buy gloves in the ‘on trend’ colour of the season.

Cherry red will be big this year.

Green is also continuing to have its moment in the trend spotlight.

Add a pop of the on-trend colour to update your look.

step 3 check out new arrivals

A good way to keep your style current is to regularly compare what you are wearing against new arrivals.

Be analytical.

Assess your key pieces.

Do they reflect current trends?

If not, do not despair!

It may mean it is time for an update or refresh.

Changing how you wear your accessories may be all you need to do.

Of course, your pieces may be vintage in which case all that might be needed is rejuvenation.

step 4 Make accessories part of your style repertoire

Wear the outfit you want to accessorise and go shopping.

Try out different options, a scarf, jewellery, hat etc, with your outfit.

This ensures that when you do buy something it works with your clothes.

Repeat.

At home accessorise new looks with existing accessories and vice versus.

Try out new accessories with different looks from your wardrobe.

Not everything will work, but some will.

This will give you different options when creating a look.
