(NUI) - Who says you have to buy a whole new wardrobe to give yourself a style overhaul? Simple accessories can go a long way in terms of reinventing the contents of your closet.

Any fashion-savvy person will tell you that one beautifully crafted piece, large or small, can take an outfit from weak to chic. Whether the item is a great pair of shoes, an elaborate belt, unique jewelry or a whimsical flower, never underestimate the power of accessories.

Here are a few pieces that can spice up an everyday outfit instantly:

* The unique Bango-Time Watch from Alfex Switzerland is the perfect accessory for those who crave style and function. At first sight, it gives off the impression of a pop art arm bangle bracelet. Only the wearer herself can check the time because the watch face is hidden at the end of the bangle. Bango-Time was the brain child of design student Maren Kramer, who entered the cleverly crafted watch in a competition. It's available by calling 1-800-827-7590.

* Chandelier earrings are beginning to steal the spotlight away from celebrities on the red carpet and models on runways. Their bold appearance gives off an almost antique feel, but these are hardly your great-grandmother's jewels. Styles range from modern to romantic - perfect for fitting any mood.

* Quirky ribbons and bows are all the rage. Whether the bow is tied to a belt of faux pearls or adorned on a cap, these sweet trimmings add a youthful sense of innocence.

* Believe it or not, fishnet stockings can jazz up an outfit for either day or night. Give an ordinarily dull office ensemble a revamped look by adding a pair in taupe that will accent earthy, neutral tones, without giving the harsh appearance often associated with fishnets. For evening, a black pair of the stockings can make a knee-length dress or skirt sizzle with sass.

Whatever the occasion, you can always have fun with fashion. No matter what you wear each day, remember to add at least one stylish accessory to complement your look.
