Think about a time when you tried to stand out: an audition for a school play, a sporting event or trying to be the funny one of your friend group. We can all look back on situations where we wanted to be the one being remembered. It’s fun sometimes to draw in a little extra attention, especially when done for all the right reasons.
For some, these moments come through fashion. It’s no longer a secret that statement pieces are currently all the rage. Statement necklaces, scarves and earrings—the list goes on. This week’s Fashionista centralizes the statement of her ensemble around a hat while managing to tie the outfit together with a bold pop of pink in the color of her dress.
A single-toned dress acts as a slate to build up from when beginning the accessorizing process. Without drawing away from the dress, a hat can act as a complimentary accessory. While a playful pink color might seem like enough to grab any onlooker’s attention, why not take the extra time to guarantee it? Accessories are trivial.
At the same time, it’s important to be careful not to over accessorize, taking away from the appeal of the original piece. This Fashionista adds simple touches such as a single chain necklace and neutral color wedges to heighten rather than hinder the overall look.
How To: Afraid of looking out of place by adding a hat to your look? Keep your outfit simple and remember that hats range in size; start small and work your way up.
