The perfect day to night look: A little pink never hurt anyone...

Dress - LK BENNETT /  Pink metallic heels - GIUESEPPE ZANOTTI / Clutch - The ICONIC / Watch - GUCCI / Pearl bracelet - MAX & CHLOE / Perfume - CHRISTIAN DIOR / Brooch/Hairclip - ACCESSORIES BY ABIYE

I created this look for a sophisticated, elegant lady using my handmade pink & silver brooch. This look can be worn to an office and subsequently out for an evening with the girls - the very essence of a 'day-to-night' look. It can also be teamed up with a fascinator and would be perfect for a wedding, or the brooch can be adorned with a string of pearls (as shown) to add the '60s, old Hollywood glamour to your ensemble!

If you're not keen on brooches, try adding some colour to your hair and wearing it as a hair accessory, using the hair pin at the back.

I absolutely love the versatility!

What do you think? Do you have any other suggestions on how to style the brooch/hair accessory? Let me know.

Love,

Abiye xoxo

Welcome...

Heyyyyy..

Welcome to the ‘Accessories by Abiye’ blog. The main aim of the blog is to promote the ‘Accessories by Abiye’ brand by showing you looks, styling tips, outfits of the days, and informing readers on important announcements such as giveaways, events etc.

Accessories by Abiye - 1st collection: featuring brooches, bangles, earrings & hair accessories. Items available here.

A little about me: My name is Abiye & I love all things accessories!!! I love accessorising - it amazes me how simple, basic outfits can be transformed using elegant accessories. I was born in Nigeria, and because of my African heritage and my absolute LOVE for the traditional West African ankara and kente wax prints, I started making accessories using African print fabric. 

Customised item for a client. Accessories by Abiye clutchbag/handbag with matching diamond shaped earrings & bangle. Im happy to take custom orders. Contact me here.

African prints are bang on trend right now and Accessories by Abiye is my own contribution to the already existing fashion scene. It  is my attempt to showcase and introduce African fashion to the world, using African print-inspired accessories that can be worn with any basic outfit. 

Accessories by Abiye Exclusive 'Out of the Blue' ankara set - stiletto heels, brooch/hair clip/ hoop & stud earrings & matching bangle. Available here

I handmake and customise all items myself; from women's jewellery - earrings, bangles, necklaces, brooches to hair accessories (especially for natural girls), shoes, handbags/clutchbags, etc. I've recently added men's accessories to AA as well - bow ties, pocket squares & cufflinks. Other accessories not necessarily made with African prints will be added to AA in the near future – watch this space!

Accessories by Abiye ladies choker. Green, turquoise, orange & cream. Available here.

This blog will mainly showcase how you can style the accessories and incorporate African print into your everyday wardrobe – from work, party, casual, wedding, you name it! It will also show products I'm working on at the moment.
