STYLE ADVICE: Day Looks Conquered

Day looks are pretty tough to conquer. There are always the challenges of not trying to look overdressed for the daytime but not trying to look underdressed either. To me, it is like a balance. You have to know how much “dressiness” to put into your look but also being careful and not tipping the scale, and I think this Fashionista has got it down. Like I said, day looks are tough, but they are not impossible, and here are three tips to help you pick the perfect day look.

First, never underestimate the power of denim. Jeans can not only take an outfit to the next level, but they have the power to make us feel good. It is crucial when picking jeans to feel absolutely comfortable in them. There are so many different styles out there, and you will find that one pair that makes you feel like the sidewalk is your runway. For this particular look, dark jeans are a great way to feel dressed up.

Together with the perfect pair of jeans, you need the perfect top. You don’t have to wear something straight out of the Gucci S/S 17 Cruise Collection to get that dressed-up feeling. A statement blouse is a great essential to always have, ready to pull out on any day. No closet is complete without a signature piece. Color shy? Try a solid top like the one in this outfit. You’ll still get that bold look without feeling too flashy.

Lastly: accessories, accessories, accessories! For a day look, it’s best to keep accessories simple. I feel like bulky, flashy pieces are great for a night out, but not so much during the day. However, you can totally still have fun with them! In this look, all the jewelry was hot pink and it really popped against the white, even matching with her purse. With her shoes being a neutral color so as not to distract from the rest of the outfit, this Fashionista is ready for a day out and so are you!
