We all have those days—late night Netflix binging, Instagram scrolling, and Facebook stalking. You wake up groggy and don’t have the time or inspiration to put together an Instagram worthy outfit. However, the golden rule is to always dress like you’re going to run into your ex, am I right? Luckily, there are a few tricks to help you always look your best.
First, let’s talk about her shoes. This Fashionista wears Steve Madden’s ECNTRCV ($60) in wine velvet. These slip-on’s are just enough to grab your attention, but not too flashy that they steal away from the outfit itself. It’s no secret that velvet has been the hot fabric for fall, and we will definitely be seeing more on the market for this season as well. By taking the suede obsession one step further, velvet has definitely made an impact. Shoes, purses, and bombers are only a few pieces that are amazing new additions to your closet in this fabric.
Layering necklaces is always a great way to add some detail to any kind of outfit. Throw in a couple of distinct stones as well, and you have more than enough to transform a plain T-shirt. Some stores even sell the perfect layering set now, making it even easier. What I love most about this look is that this Fashionista took it one step further and added a bandana to her layering. The neutral color fits well with the look and adds a little sweetness to balance out the leather jacket. No reason why you can’t mix and match the best of both worlds!
Amongst the endless clutter on my dresser is a section right by my door for last minute accessorizing—statement pieces, rings for stacking, hats, you name it. Adding a little extra something to change a last minute outfit is exactly what this Fashionista has done. Starting out with a simple white T-shirt and jeans, she created an entire different look by adding colorful accessories. Try to create this kind of solution for yourself as well. It will save you a bunch of time, and make sure you add a little detail to your outfit of the day.
Here’s one last tip: if you’re not feeling the bandana around your neck, channel your inner Rosie the Riveter and use it as a headband. Bring back the ’80s yet once again!
