1. Cardigan Sweaters

• Just call me the cardigan sweater girl 🙂 as I can’t live without it :D. I’ve always been that way for as long as I can remember. I wear cardigan sweaters every day even in summer time except of course when it’s excruciatingly hot and humid. I have cardigans for all seasons and pretty much in all colors. I wear it to work, for a night out, or special occasions. I just never go anywhere without a cardigan sweater. If I’m not wearing it, I always have one in the car just in case I need it. I think investing in cardigan sweaters in a variety of colors is well worth it because you can wear them over a pretty top paired with a pair of trousers or a skirt for work instead of wearing a blazer if you want to look a little less formal. You can wear a cardigan over a cute sleeveless dress when you’re in a girly girl mood, especially in springtime or summer. What I love about wearing cardigan sweaters during spring or summer is that you can wear them in a variety of bright colors as long as they match your dress or skirt. It doesn’t have to be a perfect match but it should at least blend well with your entire outfit without looking like a rainbow ;-). For dresses, I prefer to wear a 3/4 sleeves cropped cardigan as it goes well with a dress and it shows your womanly figure I think the usual length of a cardigan, which hits between your waist and hips is a perfect pair with a skirt, shorts, jeans with a sleeveless top or a tank top, a cropped jeans or capris. During fall or winter, I prefer to wear a cardigan in neutral colors but you can still be bold by wearing a red or burnt orange cardigan sweater. Purple is also a nice color to wear during winter or fall.

2. Nude Colored Shoes

• Another good investment is owning a neutral-colored pair of shoes as you can wear them with pretty much everything! It’s great to have it in a variety of styles but the classic pumps can be a perfect pair with so many different outfits. I wasn’t crazy about the neutral colored shoes until I gave it a try and now I’m lovin’ it! Also, neutral-colored shoes especially the pointed-toe ones give your height an extra boost as they make you seem taller than you normally are because it creates the illusion of longer, slimmer legs. So for the petite ladies out there like me, I suggest investing on a neutral colored shoes. I think nude pumps and slingbacks are great additions to any women’s shoe collection ;-).

3. Scarf

• Wearing a scarf is not just for keeping your neck warm nowadays and you can also wear it all year round. It has become a fashion must-have for any fashionistas out there. There’s a wide variety of scarves nowadays that can go with many different outfits and what’s great about it too is that it comes in many different fabrics wearing a scarf during summer is now totally acceptable because it has become a fashion statement that is effortless and exudes elegance.

4. Versatile Purse

• Oh purse, a woman’s other BFF! Hahahaha! There is an IT purse for every woman out there depending on your style preference. I think a woman’s purse and shoes make the outfit. Just like with shoes, you have to have that “go-to” purse. A purse that can pretty much go with any outfit and style. I think the purse doesn’t have to be in a neutral color but a plain color or something with small details can be any woman’s “go-to” purse. Also, it’s important to choose the right purse for your body type. Yeah, who knew? I know I own some purses that are probably too big for me and even though I love ’em, I only use it occasionally as I am petite and I don’t want to look like I’m carrying an overnight bag with me everywhere! Hahahahaha! 😀

5. Sunglasses

• We all wear sunglasses and we all wear them all year round and some people even wear them at night. Sunglasses not only protect our eyes from ultraviolet rays and radiation but it is also a fashion statement, a fashion statement with benefits ;-). It’s important to choose the right pair of sunglasses that are comfortable to wear and offer much-needed protection for our eyes. I suggest choosing a pair of sunglasses that best fits the shape of your face. You have to consider which shape is most flattering to your bone structure. Of course, you want to protect your eyes while looking fabulous at the same time ;-). Right ladies?!!! 😉 Hahahaha!
