Everyday Casual-Chic Style

By Elma B.

Recently, I was asked by a friend how she can pick out everyday pieces that are comfortable yet chic. She has a closet full of clothes, yet she struggles how to put a look together that is effortless, i.e., not time consuming, and chic.

My first piece of advice: get rid of clutter and take the minimalist chic approach to your wardrobe, here's what I mean. My second piece of advice: focus on the everyday. So, there are those dresses and heels for special occasions and then there is everyday. The question is how to look chic without spending hours on picking out your outfit? 

I wanted to share with you in this post how you can look chic with everyday simple pieces. Style does not actually take a big bank account, simple and easy pieces will do the trick! 

How to Get the Everyday Casual-Chic Look:

1. Black skinny jeans. Black skinny jeans are a must because they are simple, slimming and go with almost anything. If you are curvy, check out what jeans best flatter your figure here. 

2. Black jean shirt. Black jean shirt will go a long way, no matter what season. This is a timeless piece that you can wear everyday and combine it with many different bottoms; this piece exudes chicness, rock-n-roll, and laid-back-cool. 

3. Studded booties. Studded booties will add that extra-chic in your outfit; the studs communicate edginess. If studded rocker booties, are much for you, go for black fringe booties. Both are comfortable, easy to slip on and chic. 

4. Statement jewelry. Whether a necklace or layered bracelets or rings, try snake rings or owl rings, statement pieces will speak for themselves. They will take your outfit from boring to chic. Play around by picking jewelry that looks different, something that you usually see on everyone will not set your style from the crowd.

5. Bold lips. Whatever the season, when you want to give your look some spice, add bold lips. Choose between deep reds or maroons during the winter and fall; here are my top  8 make-up secrets for the fall and winter.
