Accessories make or break an outfit. This is now a fact that's ranked up there with gravity and climate change. They could turn the very same get-up from ho-hum to va-va-voom in a heartbeat. The 'less is more' school of thought is slowly being undermined by the more contemporary 'more is not enough' spirit (case in point: Olsen twins).

The beauty of accessorizing is that you can essentially create different outfits for different occasions while using the same basic pieces. It goes without saying that depending on which piece you decide on, you are not only transforming your look but also your aura (du jour). Allow me to demonstrate. Equation: your favourite pair of jeans + white cotton tank top ═ many possibilities. Put on sandals and a delicate multi-coloured necklace and voila, sweet girl-next door. Behind door number two: a pair of killer heels + as many bangles as you want + your favourite hoop or dangling earrings ═ urban chic. I could go on and on with the permutations but I'm sure you get the point: You become what you garnish yourself with.

Sites like ours provide great fixes for accessory junkies (oh'the high!). There is sure to be a piece that fits any occasion, mood or any personality you dare to become. And with affordable prices, buying accessories (unlike handbags) do not entail having to starve oneself after the purchase.

So remember people, why minimize when you can accessorize?
