The proof is in the picture lovelies. Accessories are what make up your style; which proves fashion doesn’t need to be expensive.  Invest in pieces for your wardrobe that can be brought throughout each season, and shop afford-ably on trends, and accessories to take your look to a personal place of uber-style. Take some advice from the amazing Iris Apfel and layer up on your favorite jewels and don’t look back. Play with your accessories, do the opposite of what your grandmother might tell you and mix your classy pearls with your edgy golden spikes. Who ever said your style had to match the pages of VOGUE?!

I’d like to introduce you all to Little Miss Mama’s newest fashion series. All very similar to our traditional, well loved WHAT I WORE posts, however now we will focus on what really matters. How to live a chic life, without a Kardashian budget. I have dug deep, real deep, trying to figure out what I bring to the world of fashion blogging. What it is that I can do for my fashion-driven readers, to crave more style in their lives, helping with fashion inspiration and advice you can take into your very own wardrobes and actually use. What came to me was really quite simple, my obsession of accessories. Why?

a) it can be extremely affordable
b) you can play with pieces based on your mood; and
c) it takes an outfit to a level of style that no cardigan ever can

So lovelies, here is to a new series of weekly fashion inspiration, that will take your wardrobes to the next level of chic. Style has never been so affordable! Let’s all raise our glasses and toast to our afford-ably luxurious lives. *ting*
