We should always wear our clothes and jewelry on different occasions to get their most use. Unless it's formal attire, such as a party gown, we can probably style whatever is in our closets many times.

Let me show you a few examples:

• A pearl necklace is traditional and classic. However, you can still use it to create an interesting and modern outfit. Start with a pair of jeans and a t-shirt. Then, add a chain and your pearl necklace. Voilá! Ready to look current and stylish?

• You can wear the same dress to attend a wedding or a friend's casual party. Just choose the right shoes and bag. Finally, the way you style your hair and the makeup you put on also influence the level of formality.

• Do you have a jewelry set that you got as an anniversary gift, such as a matchy necklace and a pair of earrings? If you feel you're overdressed every time you try them on, wear them separately. When paired together, these accessories tend to look more classical.

• Do you own an embroidered shawl or a special scarf such as Hermés? This kind of accessory makes any outfit special, meaning you'll be unique.

• Are you traveling to escape this cold season? A beach getaway is much needed, right? Style your one-piece swimwear as a shirt with linen pants. Complete the outfit with some fun jewelry.
