I love both, but I love plains more than prints. Why? It’s just one word and that is “Accessories”. I am a late bloomer and it was only the time when I turned 16 that I realized the concept of fashion. When I was in my early teen years, I just wear what I randomly picked from my closet, wear them as they are and I’m done preparing for school. But I just realized how more beautiful my classmates have become while I become the opposite. So ‘til then, I really allotted time to prepare for school, carefully pick my clothes to wear for the day, put on some little make up and accessorize.

Going back to plains and prints, I began loving Plains since I was a kid. But accessorizing myself when I wear them was just I think five years ago. Plains are those in single color and no prints clothes. Their plainness gives you the opportunity to use exaggeratedly huge accessories such as earrings and necklaces.

One important note when picking accessories to wear, you just have to pick one as your focal point – the very first accessory that you want other people to notice and say, “Gee that’s so fashionable.” If it’s the earrings, wear dangling earrings and leave your neck bare. Add some bracelets or bangles and put on a little make up. If it’s the necklace, wear tiny earrings that matche with your necklace and wear super mega large necklaces that matches the color and style of your tee or blouse. The advantage of plains over prints is that it allows you to experiment on your total look with your accessories. Mixing and matching is the key to a fashionable plain.

Prints on the other hand, could be considered as accessories themselves. Putting on exaggerated accessories could ruin your style so you just have to use discrete ones. If you are less experimental and less patient in finding accessories to match your clothes, wear prints over plains. You just have to choose the prints that will match your age, style and complexion. For tees, choose those with artistic prints or those with eye-catching tag-lines.
