WDIOT: Statement Pieces

My style will never be called refined because it’s not defined. I have what I call “impulse style”.

That means I don’t have a look. My clothing choice adapts to my feelings at the time of purchase, or, unfortunately, to what fits my body. That is why I love jewelry since it is one size fits all.

As part of my make-believe fashion theories, I don't do subtle jewelry.  Some of our other contributors look so good in with their delicate pieces, but with my wavy hair and plus size body (I think), I look better in statement pieces.

But not all statement pieces are created equal, which is why I am going to show you some WDIOT pieces from my clothes.

With impulse style comes failure.

I have worn this before, but it just doesn't go with anything. It is one of those things where I should probably buy an outfit that goes with it instead of trying to match it with something already in my closet.

This has made it out the door, but went straight into my purse when I got into the car. It is made out of porcupine needles and wooden beads. Perfect for going nowhere.

I have so many pieces that I love, but that I very rarely get to wear out. I wish my town wasn't so conservative because I do love my over the top statement pieces.

But sometimes I just have to ask myself, "WHY DO I OWN THIS?"
