#4. Accessorize

Accessories can really make a difference in the look and feel of your outfit, and they are a great way to add visual interest - that is, they can draw your eye to or away from something, they can break up a large block of color or space, they can tie together pieces of clothing to complete a look, and they can give your hands, arms, feet, eyes, and head something to do! 

Have you ever thought, "What do I do with my hands?"

Yeah, we get that a lot. There are lots of ways to position your hands in a photo, but adding the right accessories can make that even easier. Here is a list of great accessories to add to your look. 

• jewelry - long or statement necklaces, dangly earrings, rings, bracelets, etc. 
• hats - you can have so much fun with a hat!
• scarves - these really tie in a look and make a great place to hold, scrunch, or even toss behind you
• glasses - on or off, peeking over the edge, looking chill in the bright sun...there are so many options
• cute shoes - they say the shoes make the outfit. Don't forget your feet will be in many of the photos.
• jackets - make layers you can put on or take off, toss over your shoulder or hang in the background. Letterman jackets are great for this.
