Also, opting all-black or all-white motif is an effortless way to wearing an expensive-looking outfit as there is a class in the shade itself. If you don’t want to look monotonous in a monochrome outfit, then play with texture through different fabric styles like leather, chiffon, cashmere, cotton, velvet, wool, and such. This way, you’ll liven up your look without looking overdone.

3. Wear some metallic ensembles in classic shades.

Metallics give your overall look an ‘expensive’ touch. You may drape a metallic blazer over your shoulders or wear some metallic shorts or blouses. Metallic gold or silver with classic ensembles always looks so divine and ladylike, so you may wear a metallic gold blouse paired with classic skirt or metallic gold shorts paired with classic blazer. As an alternative, you may wear some sequined garments but avoid a fully sequined style as it may look overdone. Do not overdo it as if you’re thinking of making the look classier by piling tons of metallic pieces together, the truth is you’re making it opposite. So, make sure to keep your outfits simple and just layer metallic pieces when needed.

4. Stick to classic and clean prints.

Though leather jacket and boots tend to have a rock or grunge feel, you can still make use of leather to add some class to your style. Patent leather with glossy finish in classic staples like pencil skirts, pleated skirts, blazers, and even shoes are great to vamp up your plain looks.

6. Go for monochromatic or neutral shades.

Neutral colors such as white, black, brown, khaki, tan, beige, and even navy blue are colors that could be matched easily with other colors and add some harmony to your outfit. Opt for these shades when opting for timeless pieces and you’ll surely gain that expensive look. Monochromatic dressing is a little bit more complex than just wearing an all-black or all-white motif. Playing with fabrics, textures, and shades is needed as monochromatic outfits can easily get bland or boring.

As you have seen in these secret tricks, you don’t have to be garbed up with designer pieces just to look luxurious and with class. Be creative and tasteful in mixing and matching your plain outfits with high-end ones so you’ll end up looking sophisticated, elegant and with class.
