Effortless Wardrobe Essentials for a Polished Look
Striped Tee
I may or may not be biased here, haha. A striped tee is one of those pieces that you’ll reach for more often than not. I wear a striped tee at least 2-3 times a week… not even kidding. It’s a piece that’s more interesting than a solid tee so it adds a little something more to your look.
Dark wash jeans
Whenever I’ve worn jeans that are a bit more faded or light-wash, they always feel more casual. A simple swap for a darker pair of jeans like these makes all the difference. It instantly takes your outfit from casual to dressed-up, with very little effort.
Ballet flats
A pair of ballet flats are the perfect piece to add to your overall polished look. Rather than a casual pair of sneakers or loafers, you can wear flats to keep things a bit more elegant but without having to wear a pair of heels. I recently bought this pair of pointed flats (with a bow of course) and it’s made a HUGE difference! It almost looks like I’m wearing heels, but instead I’m in a comfy pair of flats – that’s the kind of effortless I’m going for.
Silk Scarf
Wearing a silk scarf around your neck or tied around your hair or purse, can add an extra touch of glam and elevate your simple outfit. It also adds a pop of color or a fun print. Simple, effortless and chic!
Classic Tote
Okay, we all know that a tote is the perfect bag for everyday essentials. A classic tote paired with your outfit keeps things neat. That’s key for an effortless look!
Sunglasses
Let’s not forget sunnies to finish off the look! They’re like the glamorous cherry on top. You can’t go wrong with classic aviators, Clubmasters or Wayfarers. The colors and textures of the glasses add the perfect finishing touch to your outfit.
