Scarves & Brooches: An Accessory Classic

2008-08-18T03:12:00.000-07:00

Given the Fall trend toward a more feminine together accessorized look, Scarves and Brooches are the perfect accessory. No longer consider them your “Grandmother’s accessory”.
Fall’s modern 1940’s look is perfect for Brooches and Scarves. Team up a “Multi-Colored Striped Scarf” with a “Silver Pearl & Crystal Flower Brooch” at http://www.windowshopshop.com/ , add a Gray Mohair or Cashmere sweater and pencil skirt for a great Fall retro look.

Other uses for Brooches and Scarves are:
§ Create a belt with a great scarf and use a Brooch to secure it like a belt buckle or on the side.
§ Enjoy a Scarf around the neck secured by a Brooch, either tight around the neck or loose.
§ Pin a Brooch on the lapel of a jacket for a more classic look.
§ Attach a Brooch to a belt as an adornment.
§ Pin a Brooch on a necklace to create a pendant.
§ Double up the fun and adorn each shoe with beautiful Brooch to liven up a shoe.

Accessorizing Looks for Fall

As with all seasonal fashion trends, Fall offers an array of looks to suit many varied tastes. Feminine is back (did it really ever leave?), especially with the trend that is a modern twist on 1940’s style.
Picture a wide-legged brown tweed pant with a cuff, black patent leather platform Mary Jane shoes with a pretty white classic feminine blouse, topped off with “Brown Crystal Silver Hoops” and a “Chinese Laundry Brown Clutch Handbag” @ windowshopshop.com.

Put together another modern 1940’s inspired look with a tweed pencil skirt, classic white shirt, patent leather platform Mary Jane shoes accessorized with an “Amber Flower Watch” @windowshopshop.com.

Remember, Fall’s new black is black. Another trend is minimalistic. A classic little black dress with a sexy black stiletto heel fits the bill with a beautiful “Silver Circle Link Earring & Necklace Set” @ windowshopshop.com

Like a little femininity with an edge? Top off a black or white tank top with a black biker jacket, a cigarette jean and a classic black stiletto heel with a “Fashion Bella Black Bead & Bow Bracelet” @ windowshopshop.com. Don’t be afraid to add multiple “Thin Metallic Bracelets” in bronze, gold & silver with the “Fashion Bella Black Bead & Bow Bracelet”. Mixing metallic colors is

no longer a “faux pas”, but a fashion trend that adds versatility to accessory choices. As mentioned in “In Style” magazine’s August, 2008 Edition Fall’s UnRule Book, "Mix your metals. That old adage of wearing only silver or gold is gone. An armful of bangles in both, the shinier the ores the better suddenly feels right”.

Websites like style.com provide links to these major fashion show lines. The key to building a great Fall wardrobe is to invest in several key essentials. A classic feminine white shirt, a little black dress, a flattering pair of jeans, a biker jacket, a tweed pencil skirt, a clutch handbag, a sexy black stiletto heel and a black patent leather platform Mary Jane shoe can create a base for a fall wardrobe on a budget.
