5 Tips for Effortlessly Styling a Statement Outfit

Fashion is the universal way of showing people who you are, what you like, and how adventurous you can be. In short, what you wear is the easiest way to communicate who you are, but it doesn’t mean you can’t choose to be someone different each day. 

Social media has made it easier to discover new trends, find new fashion brands and inspirations and explore your own fashion choices, but there’s a fine line between making a fashion statement and achieving a fashion faux pas. We’re making it easy to create an effortlessly styled outfit with our 5 top tips.

1. Mix Up Your Styles

Fashion is all about flexibility, and there’s no better way to showcase your flexibility than bringing together a few different styles to create a unique look. Take a casual blazer and pair it with some faded jeans or trousers, or switch up the full suit outfit by adding bike shorts instead of trousers. This will result in a statement outfit with unexpected twists and will be totally unique to you.

2. Swap Out Your LBD with Something White

Don’t get us wrong; we love the classic LBD and think every wardrobe should have one. However, if you want to stand out from the crowd, opt for white next time. A simple colour swap from traditional black to sophisticated white will mean all eyes on you. The best bit? White works for any season and is the most effortless way to create a more sophisticated look. Add accessories to keep it simple, or go for a bold alternative to create something that pops. 

3. Use Accessories Wisely

Accessories can change the tone of any outfit and are one of the easiest ways to create a vibe. The key to choosing accessories lies in the way they make you feel. A statement outfit should be accompanied by a statement piece of accessory. For example, if you opt for a simple white tee and a pair of jeans, add a chunky necklace, a bold pair of earrings, or a silk scarf to set the tone. 

4. Choose Brands Consciously

There’s no better way to set yourself up with fashion success than by choosing to shop with brands that not only create sustainable and ethical fashion pieces but whose values truly mirror your own. Opt for brands that champion diversity, inclusivity, and empowerment. 

5. Incorporate Layers

Level up any outfit by adding an unconventional layering element. For example, you might choose to wear a simple dress, but add a blazer and a scarf and you not only have something elegant, but you also have something multidimensional that adds character and personality. Layers don’t need to be traditional, either. You could choose to wear a mesh tee layered over a bralette, or some cut-off jeans layered over bike shorts. Our key takeaway is not to overcomplicate your outfit choice. Keeping it simple is key to creating something that makes a (good) statement.
