4 Fashion Hacks for Accessories

Accessories have the power to make and break any outfit, so I thought sharing some fashion hacks for accessories will be a cool idea. I have previously written about fashion hacks for jewellery, fashion hacks for handbags and fashion hacks for shoes, so catch up on those posts if you missed them.

Here are my top 4 fashion hacks for accessories:

 

Add a Hat

A hat attracts a lot of attention so make sure you style it right, so it looks good. It takes a lot of confidence to pull this look off because you will definitely stand out from the rest so make sure you are ready for the attention or the looks you will be getting, or just fake the confidence like I do sometimes.

 

Grab the Sunnies

If you have been reading this blog long enough, you will know I hardly ever appear without my sunnies. I have quite a few now, and I still plan to add more to my collection. I wear my sunnies for comfort than style. I am short-sighted, so I wear contact lenses, and I squint my eyes a lot in sunlight.

A pair of sunglasses is the most versatile accessory you can have. They are super stylish. Having a pair of sunglasses on make you look too cool for school, and you hide your eyebags, red eyes, no eye makeup, and many more under them. Seriously, if you don’t have a pair of sunglasses, you don’t know what you are missing.

 

Scarves

Scarves have the power to change a look completely. I have quite a few scarves for different seasons, and I find them so easy to style. If you want to experiment with your accessory game, I suggest you start with scarves. You can’t go wrong with them.

Watches

A watch can add a touch of class to any outfit. Plus, it’s a useful and functional accessory that has a purpose – it can help you to tell the time in professional or social situations without being rude and looking at your phone. Browse Rolex Daytona watches for the best of the best!

So there you have my top 4 fashion hacks for accessories. Whatever you do, always remember to keep it effortless and simple. Once an outfit looks like you tried too hard, it ruins the look. Never over-accessorize, it will make you look confusing. Stick with 1 or 2 key accessories at a time, and you will slay the look.

Celebrity Fashion: Beyoncé vs Bella Hadid in Givenchy

Who wore it better image

 

I featured Bella Hadid this month on the blog. She is the cover girl for Elle UK July issue, and that was my first time placing a name to the face. So I was happy to see her rocking the same outfit with Beyoncé. Both ladies are wearing the same black and silver-beaded Givenchy Fall 2015 Couture two-piece suit, but styled differently.

Beyoncé had hers on at the 2016 CFDA Fashion Awards, held at the Hammerstein Ballroom in New York, where she won the ‘Fashion Icon’ award. And she styled her suit with a black wide brim hat, a black ruffled high-neck lace top, black peep-toe platform pumps and finished the look with Lorraine Schwartz jewels.

Bella Hadid wore her Givenchy suit a month ago at the De Grisogono Cannes party. She styled her suit with a sparkly top and a pair of black Giuseppe Zanotti sandals.

Who do you think wore it better?

I am on the fence with both looks and I can’t seem to decide on which look I prefer. I think Beyoncé would have slayed this outfit if she didn’t have that massive hat on. I am not a fan of hat, I think it is a bit too much.

I love Bella’s look. I think she looks amazing, and those Giuseppe Zanotti sandals have my full attention. They finish up the look nicely. But I am not liking the choker necklace she has on. I think it ruined her look. I would have loved to see her neck bare because the top is so over the top and sparkly, it would have been perfect to have the attention on the top and the suit, but the choker necklace messes that up.

So I can’t decide. A Beyoncé without the hat would have been brilliant, and a Bella without the choker necklace would have been perfect!

How to Style a Slogan T Shirt

I love slogan T-shirts! Wearing one is like making a statement without saying a word. You can say that with slogan Tees, you wear your thoughts and feelings.
When it comes to styling a slogan t-shirt you need to guide yourself with this major rule: Accentuate the shirt. Slogan t-shirts carry a message, so when styling them your aim should be to make the shirt the centre of attraction. No matter what you wear with your slogan t-shirt, the focus must remain on the shirt.
The next thing to take note of is to unleash your femininity with accessories. A large necklace or choker looks nice on a slogan t-shirt. Whatever you do don’t over-accessorize as this will shift focus away from the slogan Tee.
Take the feminine look further with a pair of killer high heels. Ankle boots work great to give a stylish and relaxing vibe.

I love combining outfits. It’s fun and it gives me the chance to be creative. So here are different ways you can style your slogan tee –
1.    Chic in monochrome
The classic black and white is a favourite in fashion. Black and white slogan t-shirts are very popular. Combine your black slogan Tee with a pair of white bottoms of your choice. You could go for trousers, leggings or skirts. If you have a white shirt instead, style it with black bottoms.
Add contrast to the monochrome outfit with a burst of colour. You can do with a pair of bright-coloured shoes, a handbag or clutch purse. This look is always so chic.
2.    Playful in patterns and prints
Patterns and prints add dimension to slogan tees. Let your creativity go wild as you combine your slogan shirt with stripes, polka dots, checks or leopard patterned bottoms. Floral print works beautifully well with a slogan t-shirt and also gives it that feminine touch.
3.    Cute in shorts
This combination is so cute that I had to keep it in a category of its own. A simple pair of denim shorts or pastel-coloured shorts works so well with a slogan tee. It makes it stand out. You can turn your slogan Tee into a crop top by tying a knot in the front, on the side or at the back of the tee. The little gap created by the knot makes the t-shirt stand out even more. I love this look.

4.    Laidback and timeless
If you’re aiming for casual, yet smart and trendy, then this is it. You can achieve this look with a slogan t-shirt over neutral or solid-coloured bottoms topped off with a blazer. Although the blazer is worn over the t-shirt, it won’t distract ones attention from the shirt especially if the blazer is of a different colour.
5.    Ever sporty

Slogan tees on a pair of running pants and sneakers will give you an instant sporty look. You can also take this look further with branded sportswear.
