Accessorizing 101: Belts, Watches, and Subtle Jewelry
Good accessories don’t shout; they whisper confidence. The goal is balance, not volume.
🧷 Belts
- Match leather family to shoes (not an exact shade).
- Slim for tailoring; wider for denim.
- Woven for summer texture.
⌚ Watches
- Dress: slim case, leather strap.
Everyday: field/pilot on leather or nylon.
Sport: metal bracelet or rubber for water.
💍 Jewelry
- One focal point: ring, chain, or bracelet.
- Keep metals coordinated (all silver, all gold) unless mixing on purpose.
- Matte finishes feel quieter.
🎨 Color repetition
Echo a color/metal from elsewhere (belt leather ↔ watch strap) to tie the look together.
