I have closets filled with beautiful clothes, shelves lined with designer handbags, racks of shoes and a safe filled with fine jewelry. They've been slowly acquired over the years, purchased by me or gifted from my parents or friends.

I'm a lucky, well-dressed woman....except when I'm wearing the wrong accessories. I'm not talking about a heavy purse or too tight shoes. I'm talking about emotional baggage and feathers of self-doubt that dull your sparkle and cramp your style.

Here are six "accessories" that are ageless and timeless that should a part of your everyday style:

Confidence: Self assurance puts a spring in your step better than any well-crafted shoes.

Curiosity: A curious mind, interested in learning and growing, stays young at heart. Curiosity is your best color.

Gratitude: Good manners and a gracious attitude project grace which sadly too many people, from fashionistas to corporate suits, lack these days.

Kindness: People may not remember what you wore or whether you hair was in place, but they will remember how you treated them.

Sense of Humor: The ability to laugh off and shrug away petty annoyances will lighten your spirit.

A Smile: A smile illuminates your face more brilliantly than any piece of jewelry.

Lines on your face are nothing compared to cracks in your confidence. It's not what you wear but how you wear it. An ageless person wears the right attitude at the moment she's in. #fearlessfabulousyou
