Statement pieces are eye-catching items of clothing, shoes or accessories that reflect your personality. Often unique, but not necessarily big, bright, shiny, or voluminous. People notice them and begin to associate them with your signature style.
Statement pieces create energy and interest. Some are wardrobe workhorses. Wearing them frequently creates an honest and memorable reflection of your style. If a statement piece is expensive then frequent use whittles down the cost-per-wear.
Style is about creating a positively reinforcing feedback loop between the way we feel and the way we look. It connects our inner thoughts and feelings to the story we tell the rest of the world. Statement pieces are like the headlines in this story.
