The best way to accessorize
There’s a lovely feature over on Advanced Style at the minute. Writer and artist Sandy Badash is talking about confidence and body image, concluding with *spoiler alert* ‘Hey, I’ve come a long way, and I realize I’m not a perfect being and while I put myself out there clothing-wise, and certainly don’t mind being seen, and recognized for what my conservative community calls “over the top”. I’m totally at ease with what ever I wear, some of my criteria is actually camouflage for age-related flaws. I’m not unhappy. On the contrary I love every day, and I’ve grown to love myself.’
As well as Sandy’s honesty and openness, I was struck by her wonderful accessorizing. I’m guessing this jewellery has been collected over her 81-years on the planet and that each accessory has a backstory. How relaxed does she seem wearing her favourite bits and pieces? Proof that doing your own thing always looks stylish.

I love seeing women who enjoy adding fun to their outfits!! I know my mom (the 70’s model on my blog) will add tons of accessories—and then I go and try to take them off. Shame on me, right? I need to let her have her fun!!
