Color Block '
. I love color blocking. Sure, the whole monochrome look is in but it's still ok to color block. Don t be afraid to play with colors
Many women love to wear black but too much black can make
. Take a risk to stand out by adding some pop to your outfit. For example, a bold shoe (in a different color) handbag or jacket with your all black get up. you dissapear into the background

Accessorize . Hats, bags, shoes, sunnies and baubles galore. I can never get enough. As the seasons change, it's always good to update some of your accessories to keep your wardrobe on point. For example, the floppy wool hat made a comeback from the 70's a couple of years ago and it's still a hot item. Investing in a good one isn't a bad idea. A straw fedora hat is perfect for casual summer looks and resort wear, too. My favorite thing about styling is accessorizing
Then you have other trendy pieces like the bucket bag or fringe
. They key is to accessorize with pieces that compliment each other. bags which pair nicely with the floppy hat

Accessories complete the look
MIX IT UP . I get asked all of the time what the rules are. To be honest, there are no rules. Everyone has their own way of mixing patterns. Wether you Many people are afraid of mixing patterns
simply choose to do the basic stripes with polka dots or plaid
- anything goes! And whiles it's nice to stay within the same color palette, it's also fun to be a little daring and opt for a different color to contrast. If you're a beginner, I suggest baby steps. Start with a simple outfit and add for example, a floral bag (to get used to the idea) as I did with the look below. and florals or leopard

STATEMENT PIECES '
Every girl s closet should have at least a handful of statement
. And I'm not talking jewelery, ladies. I'm talking crazy clutches, leopard coats, tulle skirts, red shoes, grandma's pearl earrings- get where this is going? pieces
These statement pieces will come out to play and save you
, trust me. I once purchased a cranberry color velvet blazer from BCBG- cost me almost $300 but so worth it. I've used it for holiday looks, dinners, even photo shoots and it's one of my favorite pieces. Don't get me wrong, you don't always have to splurge on things. several times for many ocassions
