If you frequently find yourself staring blankly into your closet while trying to decide what to wear and hoping someone could give you outfit ideas using the clothing you already own. Jazzing up outfits with jewelry from Brilliant Earth is great and so are the other ideas below.

Develop your wardrobe based on color 

Avoid becoming bogged down by thoughts about materials, circumstances, or shapes. Consider color. It’s the simplest method for putting together a look that looks good. So, for instance, if you want to create an outfit around a skirt, take it over to your closet and take out all the tops that complement or match the color of the skirt.

Put together outfits that you have never worn with each other

Consider wearing different outfits together. At this point, don’t stress too much about whether or not they complement one another; simply take them out of the closet and put them on. This will be a great helpful activity if you hang your clothes in ensembles because doing so can frequently restrict how you wear them.

Remove any labels you may have put on your clothing

If an article of clothing is “too spectacular” or “too casual,” don’t put it in the closet. Remove the labels of your clothing so that it can be worn anywhere and at any time. With sneakers and a leather jacket, your favorite dress that you’ve been saving for a special occasion might be worn down for the weekend! With a blazer and high heels, you can dress up those ratty mom jeans you save for wearing around the house!

Don’t save clothes for the best

Don’t wait for the best, to continue from the previous point… What if the “best” never materializes? Spending money on something you adore but never wearing it is such a waste! You set your own fashion guidelines; wear what you enjoy. Something can always be done to dress down a piece of clothing. Layer anything underneath or on top of it, wear it with casual shoes, and experiment with accessories…

Make a look cohesive by using styling strategies

You cannot simply put on garments and anticipate them to function flawlessly. In order for them to look well together, you’ll frequently need to style them. Two of my go-to methods are the knot and the tuck. As you can see in the photo below, You may frequently find that tucking a top into my waistband gives both the top and you a bit more shape. Additionally, experiment with the sleeves. 

Don’t pressure yourself to put together the ideal outfit

It’s okay if certain combinations don’t work. That is a step in the artistic process. You have the chance to explore and test new appearances during this practice. Try another look if the first one doesn’t work. 

Try on every combo conceivable

This is quite significant. You will want to try every combination before you rule anything out. There are many stylistic strategies (such as tucking in, cuffing, knotting, etc.) that will help make two seemingly unrelated pieces work well together. Clothes look quite different with a body inside of them. Don’t rule anything out.
