#5 Don’t Go Overboard with Accessories

Simple jewelry is the best way to go.

• Earrings: small silver or gold hoops, pearl or diamond studs.
• Bracelet: silver or gold bangles (one heavy or several delicate), watch (gold or silver with metal or leather band).
• Necklace: Long pendants, pearls, diamond solitaire, cross.
• Ring: Not necessary, but if you do, go either delicate or statement.
• Scarf: Scarves are a great way to add color and visual interest to a any outfit.

And don’t forget your shoes. Yes, shoes are an accessory! Pumps , slingbacks , ballet flats , or boots in solid neutrals, such as cream, navy, or black, are your best bet.
