3 Styling Techniques To Instantly Update Your Look

Each piece in your closet matters because it holds a little part of your style in its color, texture, pattern, or shape. But the styling is what makes it totally you.

Styling can make or break any piece once you put it in an outfit, so today I’m sharing three techniques I love to freshen up and enhance some of the most fun pieces in your closet.

Watch the video. Shop the looks. Get to stylin’.

THE UNEXPECTED COUPLE


Take two pieces that are contrasting in style. Match them up. Together, their characteristics become more visible and exciting. An edgy jacket goes with a classic blouse. A masculine sweater highlights a feminine skirt. A practical sneaker grounds an ethereal dress.

THE ATTENTION SEEKERS


Take a graphic tee. Layer up 2, 3, or 4 of your favorite necklaces (one metal or try mixed)!

Throw them together. Watch them talk.

While you may worry that’ll be too much, the attention and energy flows naturally between the two. The intensity keeps them at the exact same pitch.

THE BEST FRIENDS FOR LIFE


Nothing says playful and fun like red and pink.

When putting them together, choose a red and pink of the same tone. 

Try watermelon with coral, hot pink with scarlet, or blush with raspberry.
