How to accesorize a gray dress (and add more color to a pale outfit!)

It’s fall for many of you but as you may know I’m in hot weather most of the year. For Singapore, the less you wear and the looser the garment, the cooler you will be.

This dress (similar here), therefore, is perfect for the climate I live in.

I love to wear light gray but it’s not really the best color for my complexion so I need to add some color to the look.

Accessories to the rescue!

First there is this necklace with colorful wooden pieces.

Then there is the fuchsia, black bag. I’m wearing it the wrong way around on this image as for this dress it’s best if the fuchsia side is shown.

This beautiful colorful bracelet (a gift from the creative Suzanne Carillo) adds to the colorful mix.

My colorful glasses are perfect for outdoor.

And of course some fuchsia lips help as well!

Last but not least there are the shoes. These beauties from United Nude are the perfect finish!

Of course most of Stella Carakasi’s collection is tailored toward fall and winter now and I have already made some selections for my visit to The Netherlands in December.

• The Illusion tunic can be worn on its own or as a layered piece
• The Starburst top is an ideal layering piece
• The Indulgence Tunic is perfect to wear over leggings
• The Second Nature Capris are perfect for summer
• The Tiburon Tunic Icon is comfortable and perfect to wear with your favorite jeans or leggings
• The Go To Cardigan is ideal for creating that long lean line and hide your tummy and I love the sheerness of part of this cardigan
