Switching Up Your Personal Style with Accessories

By  | 

Nowadays, we have fast fashion. The majority of us buy our outfits from the same stores. When we go into them, they have the same item, replicated tens of times in different sizes and fits. Now, mass production is great in many ways. It’s convenient and it’s cheap. But it also has the consequence that you may find yourself finding it a little difficult to stand out from the crowd. Often, many of us will think that in order to stand out we’ll have to make bold statements that we wouldn’t be comfortable with. But there are other options out there. Accessorizing can add a completely unique and personal touch to any of your outfits, helping you to differentiate yourself and curate your own style. While you’d have to shop boutiques, vintage stores, tailors and designer brands to find an outfit that others won’t be wearing, you can create a whole look just based on a cute combination of accessories. Here are some you might want to try.

Piercings

Only get a piercing if you’re comfortable with the idea. But there are plenty of different types of piercing out there and opting for something other than lobes alone is becoming increasingly socially acceptable. Just make sure to choose a reliable and recommended piercer who will do your piercing properly and in sanitary conditions with proper aftercare advice.

Watches

Watches are a practical accessory. Sure, you can see the time in an instant on your phone, but watches are still a great timepiece and you can check the time without looking rude or unprofessional in social and professional situations. Straps can also often be interchangeable, allowing you to switch up your look at a low cost. Take a look at panerai watch straps as an example!

Glasses

Some of us are reluctant to wear glasses, even when we need them. When it comes down to it though, they’re a great fashion accessory with a lot of potential. Sure, contact lenses are convenient. They won’t fall off and are great if you work out or are into sports or other physical activities. But glasses are available in a wide variety of frames – some subtle, some statement pieces! 

Jewelry

Jewelry is desirable. There are so many different types of it, you’ll be spoilt for choice once you start venturing into picking bits and pieces up. Some people like necklaces. Others like earrings. Others will opt for a ring or a bracelet. Any piece of jewelry should reflect your tastes and can form an eye catching part of any ensemble.

Accessorizing can have you feeling a little out of your comfort zone. You will have to get used to it and remember to put your accessories on before you leave the house. But once you’re into the swing of things, it’ll become second nature to you and you’ll begin to develop your own personal style that really helps you to stand out from the crowd.
