WHAT ARE STATEMENT PIECES?
Statement pieces are (by Google search):
Statement pieces define your personal style. They give an identity to your personal brand. Think of bloggers and fashion editors at one end of the spectrum whose personal style is portrayed for the world to see.
WHAT TO WEAR WITH LARGE STATEMENT PIECES:
I always say (and you don't have to follow this) that when you want to make one thing pop, then everything else must be muted. For example, if you are wearing huge gold earrings then try wearing all black. Or if you are wearing a large pink head accessory then at least wear an outfit in the same colour palette. Or if you go for a huge statement then it must be complimentary to it. Which means two opposing colours (eg: yellow and purple). And never go for more than 3 colours in your whole outfit, this includes the accessories. But make sure to do this once in a while so you can have fun with fashion.
WHAT IS A GOOD STATEMENT PIECE?
It is the one you fall in love with. It is the one you choose at that moment in time.
HOW TO BUY A STATEMENT PIECE?
While shopping for jewellery, accessories or a head piece look for the ones that pop out at you. Then think about your wardrobe and if this item will match your style, colours, personality. If you want to make a statement and be bold and totally unique then do it. Buy it. Try it. Enjoy it. And once you no longer enjoy it, pass it along, Either, sell it, gift it, donate it, or even keep it if you really love it.
SOME EXAMPLES OF PIECES YOU COULD BUY AND TRY:

WHEN TO WEAR A STATEMENT PIECE?
You usually wear one at a function, party, event, or gathering.
Or if you are like me, on no particular occasion just because.
You can wear one when feeling adventurous, or just in the mood for something new.
Don't hold back, if you try one, you'll see how fun it is to jazz up any outfit.
WHY WEAR A STATEMENT PIECE?
For yourself and then as a conversation starter. If the story of how you bought it on an amazing trip to say Italy, or Mexico while walking thru tiny shop alleys, could spark up so many fun memories of travels and other stories to talk about. But even if you just bought it in your neighborhood, if it was a fun experience, why not talk about it?
TIP: Never wear more than one statement piece per outfit.
And try to wear simple outfits when you wear a piece that really pops.
