Platform shoes
One of the major style trends of the 1970s, platform shoes have recently experienced a resurgence in popularity. These shoes are considered more comfortable than regular heels because the platform sole lifts the foot, giving the wearer a more comfortable fit.

It might be worth choosing a pink platform color, it's neutral enough to complement a variety of outfits.
Chain belts
An easy way to add a glamorous touch to your outfits is to use chain belts. They go well with basics like jeans and trousers, but also go well with skirts and dresses. Chain belts were popular in the 90s and were often worn by celebrities on the red carpet. Opt for a simple style if you're not sure layered belts will suit you.
Opting for a pearl accented belt with a gold chain is a great way to add a little sparkle to a basic outfit. You might like the idea of wearing it with high-waisted jeans or over a formal dress to highlight your waist.
