How to Over-Accessorize (The Right Way)
Growing up in Los Angeles has taught me a few things:
1. Enjoy the weather because it is great 90 percent of the time. This is not the case everywhere.
2. Take advantage of all the (many, varied) activities there are to do.
3. Notice what people are wearing around you! They are setting the trends you’ll see all over the country.
Lesson number three gives me all of my best outfit ideas. LA is a progressive, fun, and stylish city, and walking Hollywood Boulevard, Rodeo Drive, Melrose Avenue, and even Sunset Boulevard is like attending a fashion show. There are so many people wearing cute, unique outfits, so it’s easy for me to pick out the trends just by observing.
Recently, I’ve noticed a specific trend: over-accessorizing. I absolutely LOVE this trend and have started doing it myself.

How I Over-Accessorize:
On average, I wear four necklaces, nine rings, four earrings, and one bracelet at once. I switch up my necklaces and earrings on a daily basis but always keep my rings the same.
Above is a picture of almost all the pieces of jewelry that I choose from.
Yes, this might seem like too much. But I think once you try it, you’ll be surprised at how “right” it can feel. I’ve noticed my friends trying the over-accessorizing trend as well as many Instagram influencers.
