Regardless how cheap or expensive your clothes are, if they don’t fit you well then it won’t look great. So, always opt for a flattering fit so you’ll bring out your natural assets strategically. If ever you wish to wear an oversized sweater just to look trendy, balance it with a form-fitting and structured skirt like Johanna did, making everything look polished and chic. If you wish to wear a bulky top like a fur jacket, balance it with a pair of leather trousers that will show off your sexy curves naturally.

Go for monochromatic dressing.

The easiest way to look classy and chic is to go for a monochromatic dressing. Instead of teaming your ripped denim jeans with a white top, think of matching it with a blue button-down shirt and perhaps a navy coat to add some sleekness to your casual outfit. Also, you may go for a dark gray pair of jeans teamed with a light gray tee and boot like Johanna did, making everything cohesive yet effortlessly chic.

Add some polish with a chic blazer, cape, or coat.

If you’re a tee and jeans type of girl, think of adding some flair to your style with a blazer, cape, or coat. Like Johanna, think of wearing a structured navy coat with your casual striped top and white jeans, or a black cape with your gray sweater and black skinny jeans. This way, you’ll make everything look dressy and chic even you’re just wearing the most basic items in your wardrobe.

Dress up your casual outfit with an expensive-looking bag and shoes.

If you’re not a fan of wearing toppers, bring the sleek look to your casual style with an expensive looking bag and shoes. If you have an eye for designer bags and your budget allows it, go for it. Like Johanna, a gray top teamed with khaki pants can be dressed up with a classy designer bag. If you don’t have a designer handbag, simply go for a classy color in a structured style to add some polish to your casual outfits. By heeding these tricks from Johanna, you’ll be able to look chic in your casual basics.
