There's nothing wrong with relying on an old standby when you want to look great, as long as that standby is a timeless piece that never goes out of fashion, like the little black dress, a great pair of jeans, a classic suit or a cashmere sweater. Having one outfit that you know fits and looks great on you makes dressing for special events easy. Whether it's an interview, an office party, a night on the town, ladies' night out or just a day at the office, accessories can make or break your look. A black or other solid-colored dress can look blah without an eye-catching piece. If the weather is cool and the dress is sleeveless or short-sleeved, then a brightly colored pashmina can be used to wrap up stylishly. If you have a pair of shoes that may not seem appropriate for the office - whether strappy, sparkly or brightly colored - then wearing them with an otherwise sedate dress might be the punch of interest that the outfit needs. If you plan on wearing your hair in an updo, then why not consider adorning your ears and neck with a dangly pair of chandelier earrings?
