#11: Mix and Match Your Jewelry
Coco Chanel, an iconic fashion luminary of her time, undoubtedly deserves a coveted spot among the pantheon of fashion experts throughout history. Her legendary advice still echoes through the ages: “Before you leave the house, look in the mirror and take one thing off.” It’s a timeless reminder that the allure of simplicity often outshines the allure of excess.
In our quest to adorn ourselves, it’s easy to fall into the trap of over-accessorizing, taking an ensemble from chic to cluttered. The allure of statement pieces may sometimes obscure the beauty of the entire look. This holds true for meticulously matching every piece of jewelry, from earrings to necklaces and bracelets. In reality, breaking up those sets and mixing them with different outfits can create a more captivating effect.
