DURING THE COLD MONTHS TRY THIS NEW TRENT - NECK WARMERS!!!!
We all make purchases that we second guess. The problem arises when you notice a giant heaping pile of accessories in your closet that you rationalize as “closet decorations.” Still, we secretly hope that these items will come back into style someday. But styles and trends aren't always limited to the current fashions we see on TV or what we read in the latest fashion magazines. Sometimes your own person style can come out when you finally get the courage to reach into that giant heaping pile in your closet and test an item out. Now I'm not telling you to go ahead and wear those MC Hammer style parachute pants that you've had since the 80's but I am telling you to stop limiting yourself to current trends and use a little of your own creativity. Who knows, it may just work.
Passionate about setting trends, I am in constant search of new style ideas. As a fearless pioneer looking for a chance to experiment, I constantly stroll along Newbury street in Boston and stop in each and every little boutique. Late last summer I could not help but stop in all the boutiques featuring a variety of merchandise starting from Christmas décor (yes, this was in August), and “magic” ceramic frogs that are suppose to bring good luck in the New Year. There are also a variety of boutiques on Newburry Sreet that feature outdated but once chic inventory. Stopping in at one of these stores, I searching through the piles of silk and cashmere and finally stumbled upon a fur piece which wasn’t even remotely related to 20th century fashion. My newly found treasure was a bulky, brown-red colored neck warmer. I wasn’t sure what I would wear it with, but I thought the idea of introducing something new into my wardrobe, even so unconventional, was going to be fun! I brought it home and, naturally, forgot about it for year or so.
Last weekend, while packing my summer apparel (with tears in my eyes) , I pulled out my winter clothes and found the warmer. This time it did not look so strange. Somehow I knew exactly how I would wear it. The options were endless. I started by wearing it over the luxurious cashmere wool winter coat, adding a unique accent to a beautiful but somewhat ordinary piece. I then wore it over a white tank top combining it with a pair of grey wool striped wide-leg pants. The combination looked great- funky and sexy at the same time, I loved it! Not only was my look updated, but I was featuring a trend that was unique to me at the moment and wasn't being forced upon me by the designer world.
Even though I see people wear warmers, I feel accomplished (yet again) as a personal stylist because the most rewarding perk is seeing people wear a piece that you discovered before it became a trend. I encourage all of you to think outside the box, reach into the masses in your closets and find your inner stylist. Or if you need a little help checkout the neck warmers that I love on the Chic Giraffe accessories page or contact me with questions or requests for personal style advice @ chicgiraffe@gmail or customercare@chicgiraffe.com
