How the Elegant Chic Woman will accessorise

The Elegant Chic Woman knows who she is and is greatly admired for it. When I consult with women this is the personality that most women that I work with aspire to be. It is a style that can be with you from birth or developed over time.

General Description

The Elegant Chic woman will be simple and sophisticated in her accessories. Like the Classic, you will not have many, but they will be quality. You will prefer to lean towards gold and pearl in your adornments.

The pop of red is an iconic statement of the Elegant Chic and you will display it in your belts, handbags and even gloves if the weather is cool enough.

Your jewellery is often estate or heirloom jewellery. It is distinctive and tasteful. The main metal will be gold and it will be substantial, saying that, it will never be gaudy. Rings and pendants will be over scale but never out of proportion.

Handbags will most likely be designer, but not in an overt manner. Leather will feature heavily. It will be plain or textured and rarely patent unless it is an evening shoe you are wearing. Your heels will be modest and you will love loafers. You will wear them with trousers and woollen skirts.

Pendants are likely to be gold coins or similar and fob chains will feature as necklaces or bracelets. Like the Classic, you will favour diamonds, emerald, rubies and sapphires even pearls over the other semi precious stones, except if it is a bracelet or ring inlaid with many coloured gems.

Your belts will be slim as opposed to thicker and you will keep and wear many scarves in both winter and summer around your neck. You will prefer wearing the square scarf over the long scarf.

How you will express the other personalities.

Classic – This is when you pull out your silver jewellery and your navy outfits.

Creative – Your creativity is most likely to be expressed as an extra flourish to a shoe, scarf, jacket or bag. It will not be overly obvious but will catch the corner of someone’s eye.

Dramatic – Most likely you will bring in patent leathers for your handbags and shoes. Your overcall jewellery will scale up to fully oversized and be a true statement piece.

Feminine – All of your jewellery will scale down to balanced, you will wear with pride heirloom pieces and your earrings are likely to be dangling as opposed to a stud.

Natural – A sturdy good quality leather handbag in a shade of beige or brown, minimal jewellery and loafers. You are set to go.

Rebellious – So minimal it will barely rate. You will have metal stud work on your shoes or bags. You will have skulls or similar woven or printed into your scarves.
