Stylist spotlight: ashley afriyie by Ashanty Rivera

I know I am not the only one who loves to take my style to the next level at any given opportunity. I might be biased, but accessorizing is the easiest way to do this, whether that be adding a few extra necklaces, throwing on a chunky ring, or switching out your boring old crossbody bag for a bold statement shoulder bag. Accessories are undoubtedly the glue to creating a successful outfit, and if you need anything or anyone else to convince you, here is a celebrity stylist to give you some insight on how and why accessories are important to her and her work.

I love accessories because they are the one thing that will always fit, no matter what size you are.
