Wearing The Right Accessories And a Giveaway!

I'm not an absolute fashion guru as I would like to be, but when it comes to accessorizing, I think this should be my forte since I have been making and selling jewelries for the past 7 1/2 years. So hear me out with some advise on wearing the right accessories to give your wardrobe a boost!

An outfit is never complete without the right accessories to complement it. Fashion is not always about putting the right clothes together. What you also need are the accessories to complete your look. Even an inexpensive jewelry, when worn with the right clothes and attitude, can make a difference in how you carry yourself.

First and foremost, consider about the colors you are wearing. Is it a neutral tone? Dark or bright bold ones?  Is the style tailored or elegant? Even if its a casual outfit of a tank top with bermudas, putting on a funky or playful colored necklace brings out the best in that simple get up.

I feel, in every woman's jewelry box, there should be a good mix of all kinds of lifestyle pieces to suit the outfit you are wearing. For example, if you are wearing loud prints, keep your accessories to a minimum so it wouldn't look like everything on you are fighting for attention. A good choice would be to wear just a bold bracelet and stud earrings, enough to make a statement. If necklaces are a must, keep it simple and clean lined.

If you are wearing a plain top or dress, play up with any kind of colored accessories - a long or chunky design necklace, for that wow factor. Another option would be to keep your top bare from jewelries but wear a statement pair of earrings - large stylish hoops, long sweeping ones or a big studded pair of jewels.

Stud earrings are one of the most common and favourite choice for almost any outfit. It comes in many designs, namely man made stones, gemstones, metallic (my personal favourite!) or fun floral pieces. Speaking of which, I am giving away not one, but TWO pairs of acrylic rose stud earrings to TWO fashionistas, just in time to adorn your Chinese New Year outfits!

Pretty rose earrings in light orange and coral pink at approximately 1cm diameter. The studs are in rhodium plating.

  2. Thanks for the giveaway, Adeline!

    For reunion dinner, I'm most likely wearing a cream almost like Cheong Sum kind of top with a pair of shorts, which will go absolutely well with the light orange pair of roses methinks!

    For day one, I'll be wearing a red/white chevvy tube dress, and the coral pink pair of roses will definitely do justice to it! (Most likely the necklaces will be a case of tug-of-war with the kids and my neck!)
