Accessories will maximize the mileage of a small compact wardrobe, provide new life to old pieces, and make a $200 outfit look like $1000.

The Foundation of Accessories -- Wardrobe Enhancers
* Scarves and Shawls - Patterns and color is the purpose the scarf; it helpsgive your outfit the finished look. Quality scarves will be expensive, but careful choices make it an investment. A silk square tied neatly and tucked into a sweater is quite elegant just as a knotted scarf placed outside the collar. Long cashmere scarves worn with coats and jackets is a timeless look. Shawls have emerged in the fashionista wardrobe. They are a practical, elegant staple for every wardrobe and look quite chic when they are well chosen and well draped. Good fabrics like cashmere and fine wool are perfect for fall and winter. Shapes come in squares, rectangles, and triangles; shape is personal preference but keep in mind proportion. Colors for both shawls and scarves should accent your ensemble. Choose soft, bright, or neutral colors that compliment your outfit.
* Shoes - "the perfect barometer of elegance" Cheap shoes will destroy a chic outfit. Along with high quality materials, the shoes should fit your feet, compliment your legs, coordinate with your outfit, and be comfortable. The most flattering style on many women is the low-cut, shallow shoe which elongates the leg creating a slimmer look: low-cut shallow pump, classic slingback, classic Chanel slingback. Styles with ankle straps, on the other hand, are the antithesis. Boots are a classic as well. The most flattering styles are slender, below the knee in suede or leather. Recently the "bootie" has emerged and will look elegant with the correct ensemble.
* Hosiery - Wear neutral tones. Fall and winter allow for more subtle textures and wools. Again, be cautious of too much detail and introducing a new color to your ensemble. If you wear a black wool skirt, match your stockings with the skirt and shoes.
* Gloves - Gloves are primarily worn in the winter to protect the hands from the cold. No longer is it part of the chic requirement to wear them every time you leave your home. Best choices are leather, cashmere, light wool in a neutral color. A silk lining is

* Jewelry - About personal style. Jewelry should not dominate any part of your ensemble. It should express your individuality. However, fine jewelry is the look of true chic and elegance. Costume and clunky jewelry is not the signature of the chic woman. Keep jewelry personal, but keep it pretty and simple.
* Handbags - Like shoes, handbags must be of top quality. Quality as in good materials, hardware, and craftsmanship. Designer handbags are beautiful, but there are less expensive options that are of quality. Counterfeit labels are not high quality and they epitomize the term "cheap". Labels don't make it high quality. Craftsmanship does.
