At any given moment, there are thousands of accessories on the market, featured in magazines and on the runway, but how does one choose among the hoard? The best thing anyone can do is to invest in the staples that are sure to last beyond the season and keep you looking fabulous.

Some clothing basics can go a long way, and can see multiple reincarnations depending on what they are worn with, how they are worn, and what fashion accessories are used to accent them. The first that comes to mind is of course the little black dress. The little black dress can be done up or done down for practically any occasion. It can be worn with a casual, floral print chiffon scarf out to a fancy lunch on the town, or can be adorned with flashy cocktail rings and chunky bracelets or a statement necklace to be worn to a more formal event. Depending on the shoe and paired accessory, the little black dress can be worn all year round and look new and different each time you wear it. Loose fitting cardigans are also a great wardrobe staple. Not only can they make v-neck tees or sleeveless summer blouses last all year round, but they can be paired with just about anything else you can imagine. They can be worn over dresses or button-downs, you name it. A wardrobe with several different types of cardigans, in different cuts, patterns, fabrics etc. can create countless outfit choices and suit any season.

When it comes to accessories, there is a little more lee way. It’s always good to have one statement piece, whether it’s a flashy knuckle duster clutch, a bold print or colored handbag, or bib necklace. Choosing a statement piece relies entirely on your style as well as what you want your statement piece to say about you. Do you want it to accentuate your style by complimenting it, or do you want to make a statement by wearing something that is fashionably set-off from your normal style to bring your look to a whole new level? Also, no one can do without a classic and versatile chiffon scarf. Having a select few chiffon scarves in animal prints or styles can also broadly widen your wardrobe when worn with different things. Not only that but they are suitable for absolutely every season. When it comes to fashion accessories, it always helps to have a few trendy pieces as well as timeless pieces to mix and match according to the occasion.

The secret to any fashion must have is its versatility. You want to look trendy but you also don’t want to have to overhaul your wardrobe every season, right? The right balance is key to having a successful wardrobe. Find great fashion accessories at Chicastic now!
