QUIZ: What do your accessories say about you?

Accessories

When it comes to adding that final touch to your outfits, for day, or night, how well do you top it off?

Take our quiz and find out….
 


Summer is coming and you’re spending more time outdoors - you are heading to the beach for the day. Do you take a hat?

Yes, you have a big straw hat that you have added a scarf to - it keeps the sun off your face and shoulders and looks stylish
Yes, you chuck on a baseball cap, it keeps your face covered but your ears still get burnt
No, you don’t really suit hats



You’ve purchased a great new shirt dress - it’s easy breezy for the warmer weather but still looks dressy. How do you make it “your own” look?

Add a chain necklace that sits underneath the collar
Add a thick tan belt around the waist to give it shape
You leave as is with a cute pair of metallic sandals



You are going to a Sunday afternoon BBQ, so the dress code is pretty casual – you wear a pair of jeans rolled up to the ankles and white singlet. How do you add colour or texture to your outfit?

A skinny jeans belt through the loops around your waist
A chunky tribal beaded necklace that hangs quite low
A bright neck scarf tied in a big bow that sits to the side around your neck



You have a simple black dress that you want to wear to your besties birthday party – how do you make it special?

You add a little vintage style sequined bolero and metallic heels
You wear patent red heels and red nails
You add a pair of earrings and matching necklace



How often do you change your handbag to match your outfit or suit the occasion?

You change your handbag from day to night
You use the same trusty bag for all occasions
You change your handbag according to your outfit every time you go out



How many pairs of heels or dressy shoes do you own?

1-5 pairs
5-10 pairs
10 + pairs



How often do you update your sunglasses?

Every summer and sometimes winter for a pair of new season specs
Once every couple of years
You have a classic pair that will last you through the seasons



To change the look of a simple dress, what would you add?

A pair of footless tights
A pair of knee high socks
A vest

You have got the idea of updating your outfit with accessories pretty much sorted.  You like to add different things to make a statement outfit and are pretty good at adding things to suit the occasion. Try to be a little more adventurous with what you pick to add - for example, instead of trusty footless tights, try knee high socks instead… you’ll feel great!  yay i spose that’s good

You enjoy accessorising and you realize that by simple changes to the final touches you can start to construct a new look. If you get yourself out of your accessories comfort zone and try something new - even if it just starts with a new bright colour you are not used to wearing, or just wear something tied a different way - then you can really start to become someone with truly individual style and have everyone copying what you wear!

Good except for the adding knee high socks. They look like school socks. Footless tights are so much better smile
