We all reach a style rut at some point and some of us might get stuck in it for years. You feel like you’ve been wearing the same clothes and that your style just lacks this little something that will make it fabulous. Here are ways to get fashionable:
Right Bag: Look for a bag that is unique yet practical. Don’t go for the typical black bag; find one in a deeper shade of purple or with some cute charms on the side. You would be surprised at how a fun bag can transform any outfit.
Flattering Trench: The trench coat can make a huge style statement. The secret is all in the cut. Pick a trench that cinches at the waist and is fitted for a polished look. You can also get one in a hot color like burgundy or green rather than the beige trench which is more common.
Bold Necklace: There are all of these necklaces around that catch our eye, but we might never know how to wear them. Adding a statement necklace to a little black dress or a plain top can take it to a whole new level. Look for necklaces with big beads in pop colors or metallic rose petals, a piece that is nothing but typical. The bigger or more eye-catching it is, the better.
Cigarette Pants: The pants that hug your body. They have an elongating effect and they make your legs go on forever. For an interesting twist, get a colored denim pair.
Colored Pumps: We all know the power of shoes. Those black stilettos that go with everything might make you comfortable, but they will also make you blend into the crowd. For a true style update, get platform pumps in a show stopping color like bright blue or fiery red. Wear them with tailored trousers or light blue skinnies, you can also wear them with a sexy A-line skirt.
Silk Scarf: Scarves are always a great addition to any outfit. Whenever you find yourself staring at an outfit and wondering what’s missing, go for the scarf. With endless patterns and colors available, you will never be lost for options to mix and match. Their versatility is also incredible. Around the neck, as a belt, a bandana, or even tied to your bag.
Blazer: A structured blazer in a neutral color always looks chic. You can pair it with denim and a fun top for a more casual look for a night out and you can wear it to the office with a skirt or tailored pants. Don’t forget to accessorize!
Belts: A favorite among stars like Lauren Conrad, belts add an extra touch to a shirtdress, a skirt, or a longer top. The belt will how off a great waist and give you an hourglass figure that would make Salma Hayek jealous.
Soft Top: Feminine tops and blouses are ladylike and fun. Ruffles, bows, lace, and such details are sophisticated and fashionably cute as well. For nighttime looks, choose richer colors and for the morning, get tops in a paler palette.
