Shoulder Dusters

Shoulder dusters are a big trend for Fall/Winter 2012.  We first saw it down the runways in Paris.  Earrings are worn long and just touching, or just above the shoulder.  They can be simple hoops, or beautiful chandeliers, and can be matched with long or short hair.  If your wearing your hair down, pin/braid it back to show off the earrings.  The idea is to make a statement that draws attention to your neck and collarbone area.  Make sure to skip a necklace with this trend, and try a strapless or plunging neckline.  Here are some looks:

Accessorize For: A Date

We all want to impress on a date.  Here are some tips for accessorizing your outfit for the perfect date!

*NO EXTREMES
Don't put on something you would never wear just to impress, it will be obvious that the piece isn't you.  Plus, you don't want to give the impression that your someone your not.  

*EXPRESS YOURSELF
Pick accessories that reflect your personality. Trendy, girly, edgy, classy, bold, glamorous, or cute.... 
pick pieces that scream -you!

*ACCESSORIZE FOR THE OCCASION
Are you going for an evening dinner, or an afternoon coffee?  Out for cocktails, or staying in for a movie?  Make sure you choose the right accessories.  Don't overdress your outfit with too much flashy jewelry, but take the opportunity to show it all off when you can!

*WEAR A CONVERSATION PIECE
Wear a piece he wont forget! Something that will catch his eye and get him to comment.  You want him to notice details about you and accessories are the details to your outfit!
