10 Rules for Effortless, Everyday Style

In this series, I share some simple tips for leveling up your daily looks.

LAYER YOUR CLOTHES — Layering adds style and versatility to any outfit. Here are three things you can try this week:

  • Incorporate a “Third Piece” Like a Coat: Elevate a basic outfit by adding a “third piece” to your outfit, such as a coat, blazer, or vest. This layer not only adds complexity to your look but also serves a practical purpose in cooler weather. Choose a statement coat for a bold look or a classic, tailored piece for a more sophisticated style.
  • Drape a Sweater Over Your Shoulders: This not only acts as a functional layer for slightly chilly weather, but also adds a chic touch to even the most basic look. It’s also easy  way to incorporate color or an interesting texture into your look.
  • Play with Jewelry and Accessories: Layer several necklaces of varying lengths, stack bracelets, or play around with bag straps. This approach adds depth and personality to your outfit without the bulk of traditional clothing layers, making it ideal for warmer climates or indoor settings.
