High style doesn’t have to cost a fortune. Even the littlest tweaks during your daily styling session can make the biggest impact on your wardrobe. It can be as small as a little layer peeking out from underneath a sweater or a special yet simple accessory that adds a little something extra to your overall look. I am always looking for a new, low risk and high reward styling idea (code for actually affordable). That’s why I scoured Instagram to find a few easy styling ideas that can help take your look to the next level.
The best part? Some of these items are probably in your closet already or can be achieved on a very minimal budget. For instance, try pairing ribbed socks with your favorite loafers instead of going barefoot (PS, these are all under $35). Or maybe you’ll find a plain sweater over an oversize button-down can be your new go-to trick. It’s a simple idea that will bring a little oomph to your basics, magically making them French-girl chic. Keep reading (and shopping) below, since these five easy styling ideas will transform your daily approach to getting dressed.
