1. Adding a Blazer Makes All the Difference
Indeed, it might sound silly at first but adding a blazer to your work outfits will give a note of seriousness and a touch of business attire. You can wear it with almost anything, from dresses, skirts, shorts, even with classic black leggings. Of course, one of the things you need to keep an eye on is the size, as sloppy shoulders and long sleeves can make your outfit look sloppy.
2. Spice Your Outfit with a Bandana
Bandanas became very popular through pop culture. They made it into the fashion world and found its place everywhere – from neck to bags, hair, and as important details able to make every outfit look cool. If you want good examples of how to wear bandanas every day, look at Alexander Wang runway or Kendal Jenner’s outfits.
Part of its appeal and popularity is that it can be worn in so many different ways and it even became a stylish way to cover your mask and protect yourself during a pandemic.
3. Add Some Neutrals
While neutrals are a perfect way to enrich your looks and make them look more expensive, try not to go overboard and buy everything in beige tones. All you need is a good flirty dress, a jacket and maybe a pair of pants. Adding a bit of style for formal occasions or even for work will inspire you to create new combinations and it might actually feel like you’ve transformed your closet.
4. A Good Watch Is a Must
Jewelry and accessories are always in style and depending on your preference, you can go for gold or silver shades. Gold watches will always be in style as they represent something expensive and give you that elevated look. When you’re looking for a new watch, try to find a simple timeless style to complement your other accessories like bags, shoes as well as other pieces of jewelry.
5. High Heels
In addition to all other pieces of clothing we mentioned, high heels are able to make every look complete. Black or nude heels might be great for going out, work meetings, or daytime parties. Even if you don’t reach out to them every day, they are an essential ingredient for dressy and special occasions.
If you want to add a more put-together look for every day, try getting a pair of leather boots with a small heel. These shoes not only give you a boost of height, but they also make you more fashionable in the long run. Remember not to exaggerate with the heels, because then you won’t be wearing them as much. Go for the low model and uplift your autumn and winter looks.
6. Statement Bags and Backpacks
There’s no list of basic accessories that don’t mention a handbag. They became such a big part of everyone’s life especially now that we carry our tablets, computers, notebooks, and pretty much everything with us. A structured handbag or a nice leather backpack is a great way to add something new to your look. You can soften your all-black look with a nude bag, or spice things up using a bag that is red or electric green.
Another thing to keep in mind is the scarf as it can give any bag a touch of style and femininity. As this is something you wear every day – try to invest in a good one made from leather that will last more than just one season. With a bag that has a timeless silhouette, every outfit will fulfill its biggest potential.
7. Use Animal Prints Moderately
Statement-making elements that make everything more eccentric. Adding in one of a few animal prints is always a good idea unless you decide to go full-on animals that might not be the best option. If you ever find yourself stuck with your style, don’t get rid of all your things but try to combine them in new ways by adding a few animal print pieces.
Also, don’t forget to use animal print on items like T-shirts, short skirts, or tops, and don’t use it for big coats, oversized jackets, or big items as it might look too much. Start slow and see where it will take you.
