9 Style tips on how to look put together

“Dress shabbily and they remember the dress; dress impeccably and they remember the woman.”- Coco Chanel.

Juggling mom life while trying to look put together can be a challenge. But fear not! Here are 9 style tips to add a sprinkle of elegance to your daily routine:

Wear clothes that fit you.

Wearing clothes that fit you makes or break your outfit. When shopping you need to aim for the fit and comfort, not only looking at the size on the tag. Invest in well-fitted structured basics. A tailored blazer, a crisp white shirt, and perfectly fitted jeans can elevate any look, even if you’re just running errands.

2. Invest in quality staple pieces.

Simplify your closet with a capsule wardrobe. Curate versatile pieces that mix and match effortlessly, ensuring you always have a stylish ensemble ready to go. These basics should include cardigans, blazers, shirts, and sweaters.

3. Accessorise with intention.

To finish any look, you need to accessorise with quality jewellery. For formal wear, studs are more suitable and loop earrings are better in casual wear. You can go bolder with jewellery if you’re putting on a plain outfit and simplify the jewellery if the outfit is bolder. Accessories are your secret weapon. A statement necklace, a chic scarf, or elegant earrings can turn a simple outfit into a fashion statement.

4. Nail the bag and shoe.

The bag and shoe can help elevate your look. A structured bag adds an instant touch of sophistication. Choose a versatile colour that complements your wardrobe, making it a go-to accessory for any occasion. The right pair of shoes can transform an outfit. Invest in comfortable yet stylish shoes – whether it’s classic flats, ankle boots, or stylish sneakers.

5. Wear dark wash skinny denim.

Dark skinny jeans just look great on anyone. They give a more polished and classier look than the lighter ones. Well-fitted denim or tailored trousers can make all the difference. They effortlessly elevate your style and provide a polished foundation for various looks.

6. Neutral Pallet Mastery

Embrace a neutral colour pallet. Neutrals are timeless and create a cohesive look. Add pops of colour with accessories to keep things interesting. Neutral colours like black, navy, white, camel, and grey are handier as you can make much more use with them.

7. Grooming Matters

Steaming clothes makes a huge difference on how you look and feel. It serves a tidy, smart, and organised vibes to the outfit. Refrain from clothes with wrinkles, stains and lose strings as it takes away the clean look. Keep your nails tidy and pay attention to your posture. Small details make a big impact.

8. Keep a pair of sunglasses on hand.

Sunglasses are a bonus to achieve a chic look on the go. Even if you don’t have time to put on makeup on, sunglasses can cover up that tired look for you. Try to have a pair with you always so that you won’t struggle with squinting eyes in the sun when you want to keep on looking put together.

9. Style your look

Your sense of style can help achieve a perfect finish to your outfit without adding any accessories. Pick any small touch you can add to your outfit without spending money for example rolling your sleeves or turning up the edges of your skinny jeans.

Bonus Point: Scent

A nice scent makes you more attractive and gives more substance to your look. Signature scents are great, or you can try layering to create a custom smell. When wearing your perfume, aim for the skin pulse points for longevity and avoid spraying on clothes as they can get stained. Remember, smelling great includes the teeth as well. Try to keep them white and smelling fresh.

Above all, carry yourself gracefully. Looking put together is about embracing simplicity, choosing quality over quantity, and letting your unique style shine through.
