Must Have Accessories for Any Ladies’ Wardrobe, 2010 & 2011 Tips
Must Have Accessories for Any Ladies’ Wardrobe
You’ve seen it. There’s this one girl and she has the most beautiful outfits. She’s always dressed to the nines and looks great. She turns everyone’s heads and always looks neat and beautiful. You might be a little bit envious—after all, every girl wants to be admired at some point. But a lot of times, it’s not in the clothes—it’s in the accessories. Look at her outfit and picture it without the accessories. Pretty bland, huh? So thus is a list of accessories that every lady ought to have.
Headbands or clips are a must have. You can have one or the other, or both. You can find cute clips almost anywhere. Headbands can be a bit harder, but ribbons are almost a given. When using these accessories, only use one at a time. There’s no need to overdo it—you’ll look tacky as opposed to glamorous.
Jewelry. This doesn’t mean that you have to have necklaces and rings and bracelets and every type of jewelry imaginable—pick something that you are going to wear. For example, if you have stretched earlobes or “gauges” then plugs could be your jewelry. Also, not everyone likes rings—but you don’t have to wear them.
Ribbons are an accessory in themselves. By buying one or two colors, you are buying hair accessories and jewelry together. You can tie them in your hair, pull your hair back with one, use it as a necklace, or a bracelet, or even braid them into your hair. It’s up to you.
You don’t have to wear something that you don’t want to. You can also vary it as much as you like—it’s all up to you. If you like Hello Kitty, you can have Hello Kitty accessories. It’s easy!

Tying a scarf to your plain old everyday handbag is a great way to make your look pop.

Designers are no strangers to this versatile trend and have adapted many of their styles to fit every look. New styles are showing scarves weaved into the handles or through metal grommets in the base of the bag. These scarves are usually interchangeable to keep up with the fashion industry’s craving for efficient and flexible design.
The possibilities are not limited to plain handbags either! Seemingly contrasting patterns of scarves and handbags are commonly paired together resulting in fresh and edgy accessories for the modern fashionista. Paisley and polka? Zebra and leopard? Go for it! Faux fur and sequins? Work it girl!
Playing it safe or taking risks, scarves are versatile and space saving alternatives to buying that perfect handbag for every outfit. Scarves can be designer or vintage, but when paired with your favorite bag they become the trendy look that we divas desire. After all, less purses on your closet shelves means more room for shoes!

Ribbons: Simple Fashion Accessories in 2010
When you think of accessories, you probably think of earrings and necklaces and bracelets and all sorts of other things. However, one of the most simple, more intricate and colorful accessories is ribbon!

Ribbons come in all sorts of shapes and sizes. There are all sorts of patterns. Do you like penguins? Chances are you can find a penguin ribbon. How about Hello Kitty? You can find Hello Kitty ribbon too, with enough effort! How about your favorite color? That’s the beauty of ribbon—it’s inexpensive and even little stores have enough of a variety for you to pick something nice.
Your best shot when purchasing ribbon is to buy about two foots worth. This should be more than enough to go around your head, wrist, whatever you might want to use it for. It also allows you to buy more than one yard of ribbon. You could probably get five, six, or maybe seven strips of ribbon for under five dollars.
Once you have purchased your ribbons, then the real fun begins! You can use them as a headband or as a pretty bracelet (you may need a friend to tie it on, but hey, there’s nothing wrong with a little team work.) or even a necklace. For the necklace, you can keep the bow in the front for a kind of cute kitten look, or tie it in the back for something that looks a little bit more elegant.

It also provides moisture to make your lips soft and keep them from cracking and drying out—a painful experience for anyone.
