To take your outfit from basic to stylish, you have to be intentional about every piece you put on. Styling is an art, so when it comes to fashion and style tips for transforming basic clothes, you have to play around with different pieces, colours and textures, to create the full blown fashion diva look.

Here are some tried and tested fashion and style tips for transforming basic clothes –

Add the Layers

It super easy to step up your look when you add on some layers like a stylish scarf or blazer. Adding layers always create a more put-together look. It sreams effortlessly chic and it is one of the easiest ways to transform any outfit. So for this style tip, it is a top, bottom and a layer. You can pop on a tailored blazer over a top and skirt for example, or you could opt a t-shirt, pair of jeans and a neck scarf as an accessory.

The Full-Tuck or Half-Tuck Look

My daughter was the first person I saw rocking the half-tuck  look and I realised I liked it! Tucking in just the front of a shirt or top emphasises the waist and creates a more structured look. I prefer tucking in my tops, but sometimes I go for the half-tuck look, and it works really well. If you like emphasising your waist, this is one style tip to try out.

Style up with Accessosories

Styling up with accessories is another great way to step up your look. The right pair of earrings or bracelets can switch up any look. Adding a. statement belt is another great fashion and style tip for a more structured outfit. Layered necklaces and staked bracelets are other fab ways to transform a basic look.

Mix Textures

Playing around with different textures is another stylish tip for transforming your look. Wearing a single fabric can create a dull look, while wearing different textures like a silk blouse paired with cotton skirt, or a cotton white t-shirt paired with blue jeans, can make the entire outfit look efforlessly chic. Also, pairing a leather jacket with a lace dress is another great example of mixing textures to create contrast in a stylish way.
