Normalizing Dress-up

I recently came across a customer who bought jewels from us and she was not wearing them for a while after the purchase. She waited until one fine weekend and said, “I don’t usually dress up.”

This encounter got me thinking, “Why do we see wearing accessories as a form of dress up?”

While there are some accessories which are meant for more special events, such as Xi and Hadley, there are plenty of accessories which every girl could wear daily without feeling overly dressed-up.

Take Airi, Charly and Liv for example. The design is simple, clean and pairs with almost all kinds of everyday outfit - be it a casual dress, comfy t-shirt and jeans or even your regular office attire.

If hook earrings are not your thing, you always have the good ‘ol stud earrings to fall back on, like Sarah and Isla. Little floral design in pastel colours, Sarah is bound to bring out the girly side of you while Isla could match with your office suit during the day and little black dress during the night!

As the saying goes, the bigger the hoops, the more fun. From the more modest of hoops, like Lana, to the bolder ones such as Cameron, and Scarlett, your look can be easily completed after you decide which style matches your mood of the day.

All in all, accessories should be seen as something which everyone could wear daily to stand out without seeming like an attention seeker. It is a form of expression that brings out your character and emotions while complimenting your physical features.

Incorporate some accessories into your daily outfit and normalize dress-up.
