Jackets are my secret weapon when it comes to looking chic. During fall, I’ll rotate between blazers, tailored dusters, and tweed jackets to look polished even if I’m wearing jeans or joggers. From oversized to fitted styles, the right jacket can do wonders for your outfit.
Shop Tailored Jackets
One thing you will always catch me in is some variation of a heel. I’m usually never caught in flats or sneakers – it’s got to be a low block heel or stiletto. Heels are the single item that will always make you look pulled together in a quick minute.
Shop Dressy Heels
Chic doesn’t necessarily equate to dressy. I love my white t-shirts and crop tops – and I wear them often. Stay tuned for a post about my favorite t-shirt brands to come!
Shop Casual Tops
Shop Sunglasses
Sunglasses are def more of a casual element than they are dressy. Since I’m often found in trousers and a blazer, I like to add sunglasses to tone it down.
I love tailored trousers as much as I love a blazer, but I don’t usually wear them together for everyday. When going for a chic jacket, I opt for more casual bottoms. My favorite lately has been cargo pants.
