Q: What is general rule of thumb when choosing accessories? Sara, SA

A: Accessories add the finishing touch and element of interest, and have the power to personalize and transform your look! It all depends on your personality and the image you want to project.  Elegant and chic? Choose simple, classy accessories. Fun and creative? Go ahead and play! Just be careful not to over-accessorize. The general rule of thumb is: Wear more accessories with a plain outfit, and fewer accessories with a busy outfit. And always ensure that the overall look and feel of your accessories (bag, belt, shoes and jewellery) work together.
