Today we visit the topic of the statement piece. What is the point of a statement piece, or better yet what exactly is a statement piece you ask? Nine times out of ten I suggest wearing a statement piece when putting on an understated outfit that needs a little flare. For example, if you're wearing a LBD (little black dress) which is a statement in itself, and need something bold to make the outfit pop, you need to add color to catch the eye.
Anytime you wear something solid in color or made mostly of one fabric, you need something to break the outfit up so you don't look like a building block. Now, if you're wearing an getup that has a bold print, stick to solid colors, such as silver or gold for your statement piece. Often times it's the jewelry that brings together the outfit, but it can also be the jewelry that can likely be the newest trend out there. That means that being able to wear it might only last one season.
If you want to make more of an investment, go for a great pair of heels or handbag that will definitely be an eye-catcher and will give you more bang for your buck! Of course these things tend to be a bit pricier but to me, they become a collectors item. It really all depends on what part of your ensemble you want to catch a persons eye. So what's your decision? Are statement pieces for you? YES!
