while it is not as common as it used to be…believe it or not…there are still women that do wear suits to work…as in several of my clients…so if you are in the elite group…i realize that wearing that same old suit…can get old…but with the hefty price tags…it’s not likely that these are items that you continue to buy over and over…
so what needs to happen…is to work with what you’ve got…while the suit on its own can be…shall we say…yawn…boring…there are some easy ways to freshen up the look…and “revive” those suits you are wearing…
if you’ve been wearing a basic button down shirt with your suits…how about opting for a nice bright blouse? if you like ruffles…this is a great accent to an otherwise boring blouse…the combination of the ruffles & color cascading down the suit jacket will instantly pump up the volume…want to be a bit more daring? go for a fun print…when looking for new blouses to add…think color…texture…detail…the smallest of which could make a huge impact…
add in some fun accessories…if you have been wearing your standard pearls or chain necklace…try adding one with a bolt of color…or adding several necklaces together to create new interest…add a fun brooch to the jacket…no one will notice your basic suit anymore…
belts are another way to update or freshen up an old suit…go for a belt that matches for a conservative approach or add some fun with one in a contrasting color…not only does this bring a great new detail to your suit…but it will instantly cinch in that waist for a flattering silhouette…
