Ah, accessories! Look in the closet of the average woman and you will find a myriad of such items. Hats, belts, purses and jewelry are all ready to command. A woman drags them out to alter even the plainest outfit into something special.
Yet, with accessories, a problem exists. Some women do not know when to stop. Instead of looking sleek and elegant, through the addition of too many things, a woman appears lost. She looks cluttered and in general disarray. They ignore the quality over quantity law. They forget that class lies in the understated and quality is really quite simple.
Simple, clean lines are the very key to fine design. If you want to look like a million, forget layering on countless number of cheaper accessories. Instead, turn to a few, tasteful items. Avoid the clutter syndrome. Opt for high quality accessories such as superb hand dyed silk scarves and hand painted shawls.
Two things set these magnificent accessories apart from the more common counterpart of local retail outlets: the quality of the material and the striking designs. silk scarves and shawls are of 100% pure silk. The way they flow, draping elegantly, indicates clearly the quality of the fabric. As for the designs - they are made relying on old techniques involving the marking with wax the borders of each unique pattern and hand painting the design, results in a completely original wearable work of art. Little wonder the final product stands out on the strength of its colors and themes.
It does not matter whether you select a hand dyed silk scarf or hand painted shawl consisting of a traditional or more modern design. If you wish to look elegant, avoid flashy or busy outfits. Stick with an outfit in plain shades. Just make sure it matches one of the hues of your selected scarf or shawl. This will not be difficult. In fact, the wide variety of shades in had painted and dyed silk accessories, makes it easier. It certainly is a far cry from the limited range available in the commercial products.
Once you have settled on the basic coordinating color, stick to it. Keep all matching items simple. Avoid anything fancy such as bows or glitter. Try to continue the same approach with your jewelry. Try to maintain the same matching color of either your outfit or accessories. Keep any baling down to a minimum. If you succeed in sticking to a minimalist approach based on the predominant shades of either your outfit or silk shawl or scarf, you will step outside looking chic, classy and oh so elegant.
