Accessories make the look

Today i was Thinking about the importance of Accessories and just how much they can change a look. So after this entry Accessories Dominate you Life had such a good response i thought id play with that idea more. This time i wanted to take an outfit and see how many ways i could change ti by adding Accessories' (its fairly self explanatory tbh)
Here is what i started with:

Base Look


Look One: Girly Whirly Brights

This is basically a summer look using brights with no regard to whether they match perfectly. I personally like clashing colours and this is possibly a bit safe for me but over all i like it for a starting point in this little experiment.

The Pinks of coarse make it girley along with this soft looking flowery tote bag and Flowery shoes.

Look One

Look Two: Winter Warmer

Again i Kept the girly Theme but went for something more wintery. I am aware it summer, but i am also very aware I'm English therefor Summer is but a mystical season we just have Dull.
The Sunglass keep it somwaht seasona i guess. Whilst technicaly not directly accessories i feal layering always adds dimension to outfits in Sl or Rl.
Lastly i can probably see a few raised eyebrows at the fact im wearing my socks over my jeans... This was infact a trend for a calvin cline advert from fall 07 that i feal in love with. I do this alot in RL it just keeps you legs cozy even if you do look like your emulating superman a tad :P

Look Two

Look Three: Anyone for a Pow Wow this Afternoon?

I felt it was Time to Crank up the oddness...
This War bonnett has been somthing im always trying to wear but well not really sure what with. Personaly whilst not the most sophicated outfit possibly my favorite even if i am bald under that hat. I think the pudding it in the picture on this one.

Look Three

Look Four:I do Opulence How you do Breakfast

This was basically me standard snob look, Fur coat.... check, Tiny dog to attack toe rags... check.
Now were is my butler to carry this heavy bag?

My friend Miraya welcome post gave me the idea for the bag. This in fact the bag Tesla shoes come in but it works well as a shopping bag thrown into an outfit. Theses elton jhon glasses just scream diva a new release from [CRAP] the rhinstones say it all.

Look Four

Look Five: Tough Glamor Bites

This is probably the most simple look here. I wanted the eyelashes and tattoos to be the main focal point. The juxtaposition of the feathers and Suicide Girl style tattoos makes for an interesting look. This necklace was a find after searching and searching for a cross necklace that was less Christ and more grungy. Found in a very good Japanese Jewelery store and is well worth a look if you haven't been yet.

Look Five
