To highlight some history - I (one of the partners) started to put more thought into my appearance since way back to my early teenage days. My friends and I love to carry our mum’s handbags, touch up colours on our face and put on statement jewelleries. I was so much in love with exaggerating big and heavy earrings. To an extend, my ear holes expanded and bleed always. In addition, I pierced more holes to showcase my love (total of 6 at that time). Those were history. I am left with comfortable 4 (utilized only 2 most of the time) and I have change to more of a necklace wearer. Definitely age plays a part; I love classic range of accessories now. Though, I must admit that I do have a wide range of collection to match my different outfit.
To me, putting some thought to your appearance is one of the easiest ways to improve your social prospects and the way people see you. People may have a hard time looking past a sloppy exterior no matter how professional you are (being a working mum). How are you able to achieve that? Besides putting on nice outfit, accessories are very important to compliment your look if you match it well. Accessories can dress you up even if you have the simplest outfit on you. All it takes is to choose your accessories wisely.
