Sophisticated Statements

There's nothing I love more in the summertime than piling statement accessories on over solid basics. It's a cool and crisp look that never goes out of style. It works for nearly every occasion and every age. And it's completely accessible.

Accessories line Dylanlex (pictured above) is all about maxing out in the jewelry department. Her pieces are showstopping and turn an everyday t-shirt into a Red Carpet appropriate look. But if the neo-Gothic trend isn't your style, that's okay. There's a sophisticated statement piece for every style and budget. Keep in mind when you wear these pieces to keep the rest of your look really simple- no bright colors, no frills and no competing accessories.

That being said, rules are always meant to be broken but tread lightly when introducing crazy patterns or cuts to these statement making accessories. It takes a seasoned pro to mix patterns and statement pieces without looking like she just broke out of the loony bin. A dab will do you but if you do go for the max, go all the way...and send me a pic.
