Stylish accessories to update drab wardrobe
May 30, 2012
A few simple and affordable pieces can give even the drabbest wardrobe a stylish update.
Printed scarf
A printed scarf is a quick way to brighten up a simple t-shirt or add a pop of color to a plain tote. Tie one in your hair, loop one around your neck, or thread one throughyour favorite purse handles for fresh and fun look. Costing fewer than $20 a pop, it’s a cheap and easy update for anyone.
Great-fitting jeans
A great pair of jeans is essential to every wardrobe. Denim that’s comfortable, flattering and classic will seldom let you down. You probably have a pair already, but if you’re still on the hunt, look for a minimally distressed pair with a dark wash. Skinny jeans are still very much in, but if you’re looking to step out of that box, flared legs are making a comeback.
Statement jewelry
Statement jewelry instantly adds personality to any ensemble. Throw a chunky ring on with a simple sundress for a fun nighttime look, or add a wooden bangle to jeans and a t-shirt for class. It doesn’t have to be anything expensive; it’s the character that counts here.
