Hello Friends!
You have been asking me how to accessorize different collar and shirt styles. So today I want to discuss button-up shirts and your options for accessorizing. This is an outfit I wore when it was still a little cold, but I wanted a splash of color. Since the shirt was the focus, I chose some silver layered necklaces to accent the V-neck shape but not to compete with the pattern.
Here are a few guidelines you can follow:
Patterned Button-Up Shirt
- Layered necklaces like above (2 or 3 depending on your options)
- Pendant Necklace in an accented color or base metal
- Statement Earrings in a coordinating color with no necklace
- Bangle bracelets in the metal of your choosing, or a bracelet in a coordinating color
Solid Color Button Up Shirt:
Since the shirt may not be the focal point you have more options for accessorizing.
- All of your options above plus:
- A long chunky rope necklace
- Statement Necklace in a contrasting color, complementing or similar hue
- For example: Pale Blue button up would look great with:
- An orange necklace for high contrast (great for a night out)
- Cobalt necklace for the high fashion color hues (great for the office)
- Or a gold or silver depending on your skin tone.
- For example: Pale Blue button up would look great with:
