Accessories are your best friends because:

1. They can help you create an efficient wardrobe. Build your wardrobe on classic pieces and accesorise to create different looks. For example, a simple black dress, accessorised in different ways can help you vary your look over and over again

2. They can help you take your look from day to evening. Replace classic pumps with strappy evening heels, add a fancy necklace or replace your handbag with a fancy clutch. But remember don't add all these accessories all in one go. Its important to create a balance. For example: if you are wearing a heavy bracelet, you don't have to wear a ring too. If the neckline of your dress has details balance it out with tiny earrings. In case the dress has a simple neckline then wear eye catching earrings or a chain. Its easy to over accessorize, so accessorize carefully.                      

3. They can help you add a touch of class to your style. A classy good quality handbag or shoes can take an ordinary outfit from simple to tres chic in a second. Invest in good quality classic styles, they will never let you down.

And its not just about handbags, shoes, belts, scarves and watches, your best accessory is one that is free and most impactful and that is your smile. Research shows that smiling helps to reduce stress as it releases endorphins in our body. You can influence others' attitude in a positive manner if you smile regularly. In addition, it helps to lower heart rate, dilate arteries and burn up calories. Most importantly, its one accessory you can never overdo.

Happy reading and keep smiling.
