14 WAYS TO ALWAYS DRESS CLASSY P2
12. GET MORE CLASSIC AND TIMELESS BASICS IN YOUR WARDROBE.
Crafting a refined ensemble effortlessly every morning is a breeze with timeless, top-notch essentials. Here are a few of my preferred classic items to integrate into your capsule wardrobe:
Versatile silk blouses, seamlessly transitioning from daytime to evening, accommodating any event with elegance. They serve as a sophisticated option during warmer seasons or can be layered under sweaters and blazers for chilly days.
Tailored pants, which can be dressed up with a blouse and heels or dressed down with a tee and sneakers…
A camel trench coat makes everything look elegant…
13. GROW YOUR COLLECTION OF ACCESSORIES.
Accessories wield significant power in elevating or detracting from an outfit's allure. The addition of a gold necklace, the perfect set of earrings, or a striking statement bag can utterly revamp even the simplest of ensembles. Here are some essential guidelines for incorporating accessories into your sophisticated style:
Opt for a metal tone that resonates with your preference and complements your skin tone, whether it's gold, silver, or rose gold. Consistently investing in jewelry of this chosen metal will streamline the mixing and matching process, ensuring a polished and harmonious look.
Structured bags, capable of standing upright independently, often endure longer than their unstructured counterparts. Their ability to maintain shape over time, coupled with a timeless aesthetic, renders them highly versatile, seamlessly complementing a variety of items in your wardrobe. Invest in a structured bag in your preferred neutral hue to acquire a staple accessory imbued with instant sophistication.
And get a pair of matching shoes! Matching your purse to your shoes is the simplest and most effective way to look composed.
Acquire a striking and refined timepiece that resonates with your personal style. It need not be exorbitant in price. Opt for a watch design that harmonizes with your existing jewelry and coordinates well with your staple wardrobe pieces. Your chosen timepiece will soon become a cherished and sophisticated accessory. Plus, adhering to fashion psychology, wearing a watch could enhance your punctuality, ensuring you're on-time more frequently.
I love silk scarves. They’re a timelessly elegant accessory that is way too underutilized. They’re equally beautiful around the neck…
And in the hair!
Diamond studs, pearl necklaces, and tennis bracelets are classics for a reason. You can never go wrong adding these to a classy outfit.
Sunglasses elevate an outfit, particularly shades in classic styles and colors. It can be fun to play around with sunglass shapes but sticking to classic styles will give that more refined edge you’re looking for.
If you’re trying to meet the Rule of Thirds, a black or brown belt with a gold buckle will help cinch the waist and add intrigue to a little black dress, a jumpsuit, or a more basic outfit.
When seeking inspiration for a fresh ensemble, start by assembling your beloved basics, such as a classic white tee and denim jeans. From there, experiment with different accessories to elevate your look. This approach offers a fantastic opportunity to discover creative ways to incorporate and maximize the potential of your existing accessory collection.
Don’t overdo it on jewelry or accessories. In most cases (though not all), less is more.
14. INVEST IN EVERYDAY ITEMS, NOT ONE-OFF PIECES.
Most people make the mistake of spending most of their fashion budget on one-off pieces they’ll wear only once, like a cocktail dress for a friend’s wedding or a formal gala dress. While you want to look beautiful and elegant for these events, of course, they’re not where you’re spending most of your time. So, they shouldn’t be where you spend the most money, either. Instead, invest your fashion budget in pieces you wear every day. Filling your closet with timeless, classic, high-quality items will elevate your wardrobe to the point that everything you wear will feel luxurious.
That means forgetting fast fashion and instead focusing on high-end boutiques and designers. But don’t worry, we promised that you don’t need to have a million bucks to look like a million bucks! The best way to buy designer goods is on consignment! You’ll find deals on high-end items that are designed and manufactured with fit and finish in mind, so you can freshen your wardrobe without breaking the bank.
