There is one very essential accessory to include in the packing.
I am sure you know what I am hinting at.
The earrings.
Earrings make all the difference to how I feel; whether I feel dressed or not. Earrings can determine my mood, change my mood and improve my mood. Isn’t it silly how a small item can change so much?
For me, earrings are a feel good statement.
When did I fall in love with earrings ? When was it I first understood the impact a decorative jewel could have?
I have always enjoyed wearing earrings and they represent so much more than pretty baubles. I have pairs inherited from my mother, pairs given to me by friends and family and pairs that I have chosen for myself.
Earrings enliven the face.
When I am over-tired, lacking in enthusiasm and have lost my sense of humour a good pair of earrings can transform the face. The added colour or the sparkle brings the skin to life; diamonds are renowned for this.
And when diamonds aren’t a girl’s best friend, I wear these.
Recently I have been crushing on medium sized drops for the day and a longer style drop earring for the evening. Earrings are accessories that take next to no space in the bag and yet with a little imagination they can completely revolutionise an outfit. A pouch I travel with holds and protects my “essential accessories” and I never restrict myself with the number of pairs I pack.
I feel changing the earrings we wear is as good as a new outfit. Know what I mean? xv
