Words and Photos by Gabi Fresnido

Ever look at yourself in the mirror and think, “something’s missing”?

After the daily “what-do-I-wear-today?” dilemma, it seems that what you decided to wear for the day still seems incomplete or that it can still be improved. Well, here’s one thing that could help: accessories!

Most people disregard accessories thinking that they’re just a minor part of their look. And yes, clothes are obviously more important since they cover up what needs to be covered, but accessories are just as critical.
