Ramya Asks
I have been stalking IMBB for a long while now, and I have to say it feels like home :)) From a long while
I’ve been wanting to share these photos with you all.
I recently went overboard shopping (nothing new there) and bought a bunch of new tops from AND and 109F.
My biggest problem is that I don’t know how to accessorize. I mean, I go like totally blank. I can’t for the life of me figure out how to put things together.
I thought of asking all of your suggestions for accessorizing these tops.. Please excuse my tired face (I got home from office n clicked these) and also my messy room :((
Wowwwww..you look sooo pretttttttty….and lovelyyyyyyy tops!!! :woot: :woot: :woot: :woot: :woot: :woot: :woot: :woot: :woot: :woot: :woot: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:
Thanks a ton Kimi!!!!! :thanks: :thanks: :woot: :woot:
Picked all from Bangalore central :))
5th top is :whistle: :whistle: :whistle: :whistle: Ramya….
and a stylish neck piece with a nice silver-black bracelet will definitely complement the look!!
Oops…I meant 4th :hihi: :hihi: :hihi:

Yay!!!! More shopping! :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo:

Awww… Jomo, thank u sooooooooooooooo much :)) U’re sweet :woot: :woot:
my suggestions would be owl necklace because that will go with all your tops :yes: :yes:
Owl necklace?? Sounds funky!!! :woot: :woot: Wonder where I’ll get it though ?:) ?:)
I had seen one long back n I didnt pick it up.. When I went back to that store it was gone 😥 😥
Will keep an eye out for that now! :yes: :yes: :yes:
colorful assorted bangles and bracelets like what Rati wore in yesterday’s look post :yahoo: :worship: :worship: :worship:
I agree, I am gonna totally stock up on those kinda bangles Jomo :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo:
I have got inspired by Rati only.. I never understood the importance of Accessories before! :toothygrin: :toothygrin:
Thanks a ton, Jomo :thanks: :thanks:
and small beaded necklaces with heavy pendants…….all of these accessories willl work wonderfully on you Ramya :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo:
sorry no answer i was busy looking how pretty u are :stars:
n u look fresh as ever even after office :specs:
Oh! Thats so sweet of u, Neha… Thank u!!!!!!!! :thanks: :thanks:
yes….Neha….I completely agree with you….she looks refreshing :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo:
aur han i loved the last and the fourth top :woot:
mujhe bhi shopping karni hai :puppy:
Do it now Neha… Lots of sale going on!!!! :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo:
lovely tops..
colorful bangles would go well with all the tops… u can accessorize ur 4th top in the pic by wearing a 1..smart steel watch and dangler 2. long neckpiece(chain with a heavy pendant),bangles and studs…
U r right Tanu! I HAVE to invest in a long neckpiece and bangles.. :yes: :yes: :yes: I have seen some steel watches lately. I will pick up one of them now :yahoo: :yahoo:
Thank u so much!!! :thanks: :thanks:
a chunky neclace wud go well with all ur tops or u can accessorize by wearing danglers..
:thanks: :thanks:
Is that wat u call a tired face to be, wonder wat I will b called after work :stars:
u r still looking so fresh dear and coming to accessories take color bangles as Jomol has already suggested. They will go with many of the tops you purchased 🙂
One tip is if one accessory is heavy and keep the others simple. For eg if you are wearing heavy ear rings dnt wear any thng fr neck and if you are wearing heavy bangles/ bracelets keep evrythng else simple 🙂 🙂
Thank u so much!!!!!! U guys r really sweet :thanks: :thanks:
That is definitely a helpful tip, makes a lot of sense. :yes: :yes: I guess thats the trick in not over-accessorizing!! WIll surely keep that in mind. Thanks!!!!!!
u can accessorize the top in ur 1st pic by wearing danglers, bangles/watch.. there is no need of a neckpiece as there is a lovely design around the neck..
Yes, that was the biggest problem! :(( I couldn’t think of how to wear a necklace with that one! U r right, I’ll keep the accessories to bangles n watch for that one. Thanks! That helps a lot! :thanks: :thanks:
u r welcum… 🙂 🙂
watch is the best accessory in case u dont seem to find the right accessories that suit your outfit… that day just go for the watch and studs look… stilletoes, pumps… a classy bag or clutch… simple makeup…. u wud luk totally chic …. :waytogo: :waytogo:
with the second look u can experiment by wrapping a stole in various ways, a watch… even earrings are not required…
with these… go for sum assorted bangles.. wooden or plastic kinds or beaded bracelets in black n white n red.. go for round/ lil long hanging earings (u’ll get a 10000 variety in various shops n even online on FB) with these tops :yes: :yes:
1st top doesn’t need a neck piece but rest ke saath, i think a black beaded long neckpiece shud go easily.. even if a small pendant with a long chain(u usually c rati wearing in her luk books sorts) wud even eork fine as all ur tops r printed.. so not a necessity to wer large neckpieces also… :waytogo: :waytogo: :waytogo: :waytogo:
n in the end. u luk adorable ramya.. cute n a refreshing face.. :whistle: :whistle:
Hi Nids :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo:
Thanks a lot Nids!! Thats really sweet! :))
Yes, the necklaces Rati has used in look books would look good as u say. I will invest in a good one. All ur tips are good, Nids, will keep them in mind! :yahoo: :yahoo:
I will also suggest you collect colourful inexpensive watches like these….
http://www.refinery29.com/go-big-time-with-plastic-watches
Those are GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo:
THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
3rd top– watch and studs or multiple earrings if u have more than 1 piercing on ur ears..
5th- u can go for a long necklace or a stole would also help..
6th and 7th- watch and studs.. stole for the 7th look…
u can play a lot with these things… u wud get a different look everytime…
if u r going for danglers there is no need of a heavy neckpiece….
highlight one thing and keep other thing subtle.. :)) :)) :))
hope it helps… :waytogo: :waytogo:
Wow, that was so detailed n helpful!!!!!!!
I will surely get a stole too… And keeping one thing subtle is definitely awesome!!!!!!!! :thanks: :thanks:
helllooooooooooooo Jomoooolllyyyy :yahoo: :hughright:
i like te 2nd top a lot especially the cut of the top. as most of these tops are rounded or squar’ish necks, there are a couple of things I would do..wear long beaded necklaces in black if you are doing casual on jeans type of look but if you are going formal with trousers, i would wear shorter beaded necklaces maybe even black pearls. for the ears I would keep it simple..small dangling beaded earrings. i would definitely a smart handbag and wear stilletos. would definitely keep the makeup simple.
and honestly i love the style of these tops..perfect for your figure. :waytogo: :waytogo: you look so very charming..
hope this helps.
Thanks Aru!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I do plan to wear these for formal as well as casual occasions so ur tips are very helpful! I will check out small pearly earrings.. A girl wears them at office n I like that look… :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo:
Stilettos I have to buy for sure :woot: :woot: :woot:
Thanks! I was lucky to get the tops which are right for my body this time.. USually I have a hard time as my lower half is heavier than my upper half :toothygrin: :toothygrin: :toothygrin: :toothygrin:
🙂 and its all abt the fit..its like ppl trying to fit into one size smaller in order to feel good but I think its better to wear the right fit and be comfy instead.. :stars:
Hi Ramya,
For the second top Black beaded necklace ( bigger bead at the centre and gradully reducing size of beads there on with elastic tread inside) with single black bead earing would look perfect and chic.
Thank u Gurpreet that sounds fab!! I will keep an eye out for black beads now :woot: :woot: :woot:
:yes: Aru :thumbsup:
Hey I liked the 1st and 5th top 🙂 u look cute 🙂
Thanks Nidhi! :))
Beautiful pics!!!really like the 4th pic of urs!! :love:
Thanks Kavita!! :))
Hello,
You look pretty and good collection , a pair of black danglers will match with all these tops,neck piece also something with beads, black,white beads, match the colors in your top,a black metal bracelet , multi color bangles , white pearl earings, grey,black pearls with white stones , will make these look more dressy .
Cheers,
Poornima
Thanks Poornima!! I will keep these in mind! :woot: :woot: :woot:
Here is my tip: WIth all your black tops you can pick up really color ful accessories, I would even go to the extent of picking up neon colors. They totally stand out and lift up the outfit.
On most lazy days I wear big chunky earrings. i love earrings. 😀 If you are not too much of a bracelet or a bangles person, you can pick up a nice watch depending on your preference. It always adds a completeness to the look.
I love scarves as well. you can pick up light weight scarves in various colors and work the around. You can go with the similar color tones or contrasting ones.
You look very pretty ramya. :-*
Rati, firstly thanks for putting up these pics :thanks: :thanks:
I have seen u using the perfect scarves so well in ur looks.. I will pick up some contrasting ones for sure. And some watches. And chunky earrings too!! Am excited now!!! :woot: :woot:
Thanks a ton, Rati. Means a lot :puchhi: :puchhi:
Nice tops Ramya! is bangalore central in jp nagar?
Yes, Srishi that one only! Thank u!!! :))
hey brilliant tops… :woot: :woot: :woot: :woot: do they still have the sale on ???? I think they look good themselves almost. I am also not an accessory person, but a wrist watch should do a classic wonder to the outfit….wat say ?
Akhila, the sale is still on n the place is so crowded these days!!!!! Check it out, there is a lot of stuff on discount!!
I will surely pick up a wrist watch :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo:
Thank u so much!! :))
hey most of the tops have a pre designed neckline so I dont see the necessity for a neck piece the 3rd and 4th may need some attention so…..may be a small simple chain may do … if you want to wear it for office….all the best
Yes, I agree abt the neck part! I will get a simple chain for office n bigger neckpiece for outings… :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo:
Thank u!!!!!!
:waytogo: :waytogo:
This is so going to help me too!!!! I have the same problem and got some awesome ideas :yahoo: :yahoo: I love IMBB :puchhi: :puchhi:
ME too!!!! IMBB rocks! :yahoo: :yahoo:
I think a chunky black beaded necklace would go with most of the tops and would set off beautifully against your skin color. Add a chunky bracelet in silver or black for the tops with shorter sleeves and you’re set!!
awww..ur suchaa cutyy ramya :teddy: :teddy: :teddy:
i wud suggest u shud get a nice watch, few scarves 🙂
Thanks a ton, Nupur! :thanks: :thanks:
Watch is definitely on top of the list now. And scarves too!! :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo:
Ramya..
Lovely..!!! and fourth is the one I liked the best :love: :love:
I like your choice.. !! Nice to know you here.. 🙂
:thanks: :thanks: Surabhi… Its nice knowing u too.. :)) Ur articles are awesome!!!
Omigosh, such pretty pictures, Ramya! :woot: :woot: :woot: :woot: :puchhi: And that’s how you look when you’re *tired*? 😮 I can only look that fresh on my good mornings and that too only if my alarm did not make me fall out of bed. :tongue: :tongue:
Lovely tops. I love the cuts and prints. Okay, so, I personally feel that since they’re mostly printed, it makes sense to accessorise them plain stoles/scarves. Particularly in the 3rd and the last pictures, you could get a red silk scarf (square or rectangular) and tie it around the neck. Will add a little flamboyance and a little contrast to the black and white of the tops. 😀 And for other tops, you could invest in some basic neckpieces that would go with everything – like an owl necklace (many versions are available everywhere and it’s super chic) or something quirky like a timepiece pendant. A string of pearls would look super elegant along with a pair of pumps with the top in the 5th picture. :preen: :preen: And the first top already has excellently detailed neck. Get a hot pair of danglers and a pretty little watch and your look will be great. :pompom: You know, there was this bracelet that Rati wore in one of her looks – very unique, looked like a hand was clutching her wrist. That one could suit any of these looks. :toothygrin: :toothygrin: :toothygrin:
Oooh ooooh! :woot: :woot: :woot: And I forgot to add that you could totally add a hat anywhere when you feel like you want to conquer the world. Get a hot fedora or a bowler or even a classic beret in any colour. :jalwa: :jalwa: :happydance:
OMG! U r totally right abt the red scarf tip! One of the biggest doubts was “how to break the monotony of black n white”. I always end up matchy matchy from head to toe if I ever try to accessorize :headbang: Will pick up a red scarf now. And I will keep a hawk’s eye out for the owl necklace and a pair of nice red pumps :toothygrin: :toothygrin:
I remember Rati’s bracelet!! Was so unique! I’ll definitely keep designs like that on my list.
Oh, I LOVEEEEEEE hats bcoz I can hide my tortured-looking mane in that :snicker: :snicker: But I’ll buy a fedora for SURE now :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo:
Thanks for all the amazing tips JW!! :thanks: :thanks:
Err.. I actually wake up properly only in the late afternoon.. In the mornings I’m like a zombie 😐 😐 😐 (Don’t u think alarms totally spoil the nice n quiet of the mornings? :toothygrin: :toothygrin: )
Lovely tops Girl 🙂
Thanks Bee!!!!
hey 🙂
1 picture ) stack gold and silver tone bracelets together with either a gold or silver tone watch ( metalic strap ). go for small studs for the ears .
2 picture ) a nice plain chain waterfall necklace ( gold tone ) . the necklace should end where your top’s neck begins . you can also wear some statement rings in gold tone .
3 picture ) A nice collar necklace consisting of flower shapes with many vibrant colors .
4 picture ) nice medium size hoop earrings , big statement ring
5 picture ) wear any necklace with a single charm which falls right on the collar bone height .
6 picture ) wear some chain earrings , with the chains falling shoulder length
7picture – some really ethnic and chunky bangles and small earrings 🙂 or a really chunky link chain in double .
these options will change with the place you are going to 🙂
Hope it helps 🙂
Thanks a lot for the individual suggestions Komal, that really helps!!!! I’ll definitely stock up on the bangles. Also thanks for suggesting the gold/silver tone, always at a loss abt that! HAVE to do an accessories haul now.. :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo:
Personally, since most of the tops have strong patterns and interesting necklines, I would go easy on the accessories since it would look overwhelming otherwise. For the neutral tops, I would accessories with bright shoes/bag, or a single cuff. For your first top, I would put my hair in a pony, to accentuate the cowl neck and wear large hoop earrings. For the one you’ve teamed with the black sweater, i would wear chunky black beads around my neck. For the second one, I love the idea of aqua blue accessories – maybe a cuff or a clutch or shoes? and a nice bright orange for your last top, again a clutch or shoes, or a cuff of some sort. Bet rati will have the best ideas though!
Am off to read the rest of the suggestions :)…lovely collectiom btw.
