Looking good is not just about the clothes you wear. Accessories are just as important. They help accentuate your look and style of dressing. Women and accessories have always been synonymous. Women love to accessorize to complete the look of their outfits. In India, fortunately, we are spoilt for choice. We have a wide range of jewellery to choose from - traditional, contemporary, modern, minimalistic etc., that sometimes it becomes difficult to decide on what to wear with which outfit.
Rashida Kapadia Eves24’s stylist shall help you take out the guesswork from accessorising. Watch this space for a series of blogs on jewellery accessorising that would be appropriate for social occasions and at the workplace.
- How can I look stylish yet professional at work?
Most women have a fair idea about the kind of accessories that goes well with social occasions but when it comes to corporate wear, there are always doubts.
-
It's quite simple actually. Go minimalistic. Wear fewer colours. Opt for classic pieces that are timeless.
-
If you are fond of wearing statement pieces, wear just one to attract and not distract.
-
-
If you are working for corporate houses which have a conservative dress code policy, then here are some suggestions:
-
With trousers and shirts or skirts and blouses wear chains with small pendants which sit on your neck inside the collar or longer chains worn on the outside of your collars.
-
A choker length - 16" or a princess length - 18", works well with shirt collars, V necklines, scoop or round necklines and cowl necklines.
Long chains, matinee length - 18" or opera length - 20", are best worn with crew necks, mandarin collars, boat necks or turtlenecks. A string of small pearls or diamonds add a touch of elegance and authority to your outfit.
EARRINGS
Earrings are an important accessory and can add a sparkle to your face.
Studs, small hoops, huggies, cluster earrings are most appropriate with formal business wear.
If you have a small face with small earlobes, wear solitaire diamonds or pearl earrings.
Most styles suit an oval face. So if you have an oval-shape face, go ahead and wear what you like but remember, less is more.
Round and heart shape faces should avoid big,round studs and clusters. Avoid wearing danglers or long hoops with stiff shirt collars, mandarin collars and turtle necks.
Square and diamond shape faces should avoid geometric designs. Hoops, huggies, chandeliers look great with Kurtis and Indian wear. But do take care and ensure that they are not noisy or distracting.
RINGS
Finger rings that are simple elegant bands or diamond rings look classy and suit all types of fingers. Keep your bulky cocktail rings for a festive occasion. One ring per hand is most appropriate for a smart business look.
BRACELETS
A slim bangle bracelet or a tennis bracelet would look great with a power suit or a silk blouse. Avoid wearing too many bangles with Indian wear as it would look unprofessional and also uncomfortable for someone working on a computer for long hours.
Don't match your jewellery to your clothes, complement it. Red clothes, red rubies are a no no. Wear sapphire, emeralds or grey pearls instead.
All pieces of jewellery should be of one metal tone, yellow gold or white gold. Never mix a gold necklace with a silver bracelet, or a gold ring with silver earrings.
Good things come in small packages, especially when it's jewellery. So the next time you are getting ready for work just keep in mind these simple tips to help you own the boardroom.
