When work and life get so busy and tiring, there are days that will leave you no energy to plan your OOTD’s. Because of this, you are sometimes left with no choice but to wear plain and boring outfits.

But what if I tell you that you can still look elegant and fashionable even with plain clothes? The next time you are wearing simple garments, try these tips to level up your look:

Pair it up with a stylish bag and shoes

A foolproof solution in turning a simple outfit into a great OOTD is pairing it up with an elegant bag and stylish shoes. The key is to go with a strong color and texture without having them look uncoordinated with the clothes. For instance, if you are wearing a plain black dress, you can go for a red, shiny stiletto or a leopard print heels to spice up your look.

Wear a fashionable jacket or sweater

Jackets, sweaters, and cardigans can work wonders on your plain clothes. If your garments are too boring, you can top it off with a jacket with decorative trim, or even a textured coat. You can also wear a colorful and patterned cover up. Make sure to find tops that complement your overall look.

Accessorize using dramatic jewelry pieces

Just because your outfit is boring does not mean your jewelry pieces should be! When wearing a plain dress or shirt, use ornate jewels to level up the look. Wear chandelier earrings or a statement necklace to go with the outfit. You can even wear stacked bangles or an expensive-looking watch to make your outfit elegant. However, it is important to balance everything so you will not look cheap and over-accessorized.

Style your hair up and put some make-up

Having a great hairstyle and a glammed make-up can certainly make your overall look more interesting. A simple dress can look more dramatic if you have big, heavy curls. You can also put some accessories on your hair. For the makeup, you can try loud-colored lipsticks, or a smokey-eye to spice up your look.
