Simple steps to give your style a boost
Elevating your fashion game beyond a plain routine boosts confidence and adds an extra spring to your step. Prices may be going up, but through smart shopping habits, intentional accessories and updating key pieces, you can craft quick style transformations without overhauling your entire wardrobe. Here are simple techniques to upgrade your look:
Treat Yourself To A Stylish Item
Add a stunning new coat, a chic handbag, statement jewelry or shimmery scarf that makes you swoon. Investing in one sensational focal piece ignites fresh styling excitement. Build new outfits around the hero item that makes you feel amazing each wear. One new beloved piece rejuvenates your whole wardrobe.
Swap Out Tired Basics For Updated Styles
Replace dull basics that make getting dressed feel like a chore. Try a modern take on a classic white tee, a sweater silhouette with special neckline detailing, or a reimagined LBD (little black dress) in a trendy new shape. Updated basics breathe new life into trusted daily outfits.
Add Pops Of Color
Inject color into a neutral wardrobe with vibrant new shirts, handbags, shoes, or coats to liven up your look. Rich hues like emerald, ruby and cobalt blue lend vibrancy. Or accessorize neutrals with a colorful silk scarf or patterned hairband. Pops of color enliven and modernize any outfit.
Pay Attention To Texture
Add visual interest by incorporating tactile fabrics like velvet, sequins, tweed and faux fur or textural patterns such as jacquard, houndstooth and herringbone weaves. Interesting textures make clothing less flat and forgettable. Surprise with beautifully tactile layers and accessories.
Shop For Statement Coats And Jackets
Outwear seen by others most offers a stylistic edge. Choose coats and jackets in modern silhouettes like bomber jackets or trenches with pretty pleating details and bold buttons. Or pick eye-catching hues or prints ideal for brightening winter grays. Showcase your style through outer layers.
How You Feel About Your Footwear Matters
Wearing shoes boosting your confidence instantly improves your look. Replace ratty trainers with sharp new ones, walk taller in those booties you adore or slide your feet into plush house slippers. Shoes elevating your mood lift whole outfits. Love your footwear. It’s always worth finding a designer you love, like Jacquemus, who has become a firm favourite for so many people for clothes and footwear from sandals to Chelsea boots.

Add Personal Touches
Personalize plain accessories and clothing with customizations making pieces feel special and yours. Add initials or motifs to jewelry, embroider jackets, or tie a scarf on your handbag. Even basic pieces become charming keepsakes when marked with touches symbolizing your spirit.
Find Your Perfect Jeans
Hunting down the perfect pair of jeans tailored to your body takes patience. But figure-flattering, brilliant blue jeans that make your legs look a mile long become wardrobe heroes worth the search. Try various rises, cuts, and stretches until you discover your match. Properly fitting jeans polish any ensemble.
Take Care Of Your Garments Properly
Follow proper laundry instructions, fold, and store items neatly, and get pieces tailored as needed. Well-treated garments maintain quality, fit and appearance for far longer, preventing premature replacement. Caring for clothes helps you look cared for.
With a few thoughtful upgrades and styling tweaks, your look easily moves from forgettable to fabulous. Focus on pieces bringing you delight each wear. Add personal flair. Refreshing your style keeps getting dressed exciting.
