Accessorising Fashion: Part Two

Costume, hair and makeup can tell you instantly, or at least give you a larger perception of, who a character is. Colleen Atwood

Image: This image is such a delight to look at. I love accessories - they punctuate an outfit and for this reason they are very dear to a girl's heart. Ah, I adore all the fancy, feminine details in the above photograph. The dress is so pretty, the hat is such a lovely touch and her smile is so enchanting, too. She certainly understands the power of accessories. Click HERE for part one of accessorising fashion. Above image by Style Tao.

  1. I agree with the quote! I love jewellery and accessories, have drawers full of them. Perhaps, I enjoy them more than clothes..but I fell for them whilst working in theatre. She always dresses (Miss. Pandora) beautifully!! xx

  2. I gravitate towards accessories more so than clothing. They are so much more playful!

    She looks very chic in her dress. Love those glasses!

  6. This quote is very much in mind as to what I do with my clothes, hair, shoes and accessories. I may look one way from the neck up, but I also like to trip people up by wearing very unexpected things like rainbow shoelaces. I hope you've enjoyed your holiday.

  18. Accessories take an outfit from blase to completely gorgeous. This is a great example! Those socks, that hat, that bag... wonderful! Anyways, just found your blog (via comment) and so far I love. I needed the turban tutorial! It'll help get me out of my rut!! I just started following you. Hope you can stop by, say hi and follow back if you feel compelled:) XO

  25. I think what I like most about this look is the joie de vive! She is happy and her choice of clothing and accessories say that.
    Thanks for your kind comment on my post about reflection. Being an artist has its share of ups and downs.
