I hear a lot of women saying they can't wear certain things because they're too old for them or will look silly on them. How does a woman know when she's "too old" for a trend? How does one gauge that? Comfort is the name of the game. Whether you're dressing up or dressing down, wear something you feel good in. This isn't an excuse to wear only sweatpants, but it's important that whatever trend you choose to follow, it makes you feel your best. That said, a woman should be true to her age. If an outfit looks like something your 15-year-old babysitter might be sporting or your great-aunt wore to the last family reunion, it might be time to consider a different style statement. How do you know when you're wearing too many accessories? To keep your look polished, think more about balancing your accessories rather than the actual number you put on. If you're wearing a statement necklace, don't add a pair of chandelier earrings, stick to studs. If you're stacking up the bangles, keep it minimal around the neck. Don't worry about matching your bag to your shoes or belt, just think about keeping it balanced. If you're wearing sky high heels opt for a clutch, but if you're running around in flats go for a great oversized tote. Think about picking one accessory to be the star of the show and then having the others fill supporting role. Do you have a guide to matching necklaces with necklines When it comes to necklaces and necklines it's more about creating contrast than matching and I always think the bigger the contrast the better. A classic white collared shirt looks great with the pop of a big, chunky statement necklace while a crew neck or turtleneck looks best with a long pendant necklace or string of beads. Accessorize strapless necklines with a choker or piece that stays close to the neck. Adding an accessory or two to an outfit can take it from boring and drab to something that makes a statement. When you're wondering how to accessorize an outfit, try playing up contrast for the most balanced look. Source: Women’s Fashion.com
