Accessorize Your Personality by Tavia Sharp, CEO of Styled Sharp

When it comes to style, accessories are often underestimated in their significance but they can truly make or break your look. Without them, the look is somehow incomplete. If you think about it, it’s all in the finishing touches. I mean, what would a Louboutin heel be without the red bottom? Or a french cuff without cufflinks? Often the most subtlest of details speak volumes. Not only that, studies have proven that people who wear jewelry and accessories are perceived as more successful. It’s about the perception and the message behind it.

A signature piece like a watch makes a statement and communicates that time is of importance to you and that you care about the details. Although we have smartphones to tell us the time, they don’t have the same symbolism. A statement watch is a way to show your personality and style and depending on the timepiece, it can also convey a higher status. Often for men, accessories are limited, and watches give men the ability to express themselves.

When I’m styling a client, I often ask questions related to their personality. Afterall, style is personal and one way to communicate your style more uniquely is to accessorize it. From jewelry to handbags, to a fun tie or a pocket square or some cool socks in a fun pattern or a bold color. These are all great conversation starters.

One of my favorite go-to accessories are shoes. They are usually the first thing people notice. So think of them as the starting point for your style. I often say that living in New York City, shoes are like our car. We are often walking for miles, so it pays to invest in quality. Real leather inside and out. It will stretch and conform to your foot over time, and it lasts longer so you’ll get more mileage out of it plus real leather looks more expensive.

Accessories bring your whole look together. Period. If your goal is to stand out and avoid blending in, then having cookie cutter style just won’t cut it so accessories are key. When it comes to your style, pay attention to the details. If not, others will be!
