You really want to lean heavily into the bold, playful accessories. Bags, jewelry, necklaces, cuffs, and the like all add the little textures and noise you need to make more of a statement.

Accessories are really what transform an outfit. They can turn a boring old capsule closet into something really playful and unique.

Expert Answer

No, you can definitely hang on to your old jewelry unless you aren't a fan of it in the first place. Jewelry can dramatically change an outfit, and you can wear it over and over again with different styles, so I wouldn't just get rid of everything you own.

Question

Will you have to talk differently?

Community Answer

This has nothing to do with clothing, but when you want to have swag, you should speak with confidence. Just be confident, feel good in you clothing and in what you do and you'll start talking the right way automatically.

Question

How do I get a swag haircut?

Community Answer

A popular swag haircut these days is the military buzz cut. Ask your barber to shave the sides of your head while leaving the top longer. If you have clippers and a steady hand, you can also do this haircut yourself.

Question

Do I need brand name clothing to dress with swag?

Community Answer

Not really. If you like some clothes that you like from name brands, but don't have the money, you can try to find something similar in a less expensive store.
