Looking more fashionable isn’t always about wearing the coolest trends, mastering complicated styling tricks, or wearing the most expensive clothes. (Who has the bank account for that, anyway? Can’t be me.) It can really be as easy as loosely tucking in your shirt, throwing on a pair of sunglasses, or adding more layers to your look.

Although sometimes this is easier said than done, and you might still think, “Thanks for the advice, but I’ll never look as good as these street style stars,” and to that I say, cheesy as it sounds, the best key to being fashionable is just confidence. Simple as that!

Even if a specific ensemble feels outside of your comfort zone, just go around and act like it’s something you wear all the time—your outfit is as much about your attitude as it is the clothes and accessories.

But if you still want some easy tips to help pull off an over-the-top ‘fit or look fashionable without trying too hard, here are 14 ways to get the compliments rolling in.

Color coordinate!

Pick two or three colors to base your outfit around (in this case mint green and off-white), and then go off that with your clothing and accessories—and even your makeup! You’ll look pulled together and elevated no matter what scheme you go with.

Mix textures.

Pile on a bunch of different fabrics in one look—ribbed knit, snakeskin print, suede, silk, leather, etc.—and it’s super chic. You can opt to go bold with your color choices or keep them all in the same shade to make the texture mixing more subtle.

Go all out with color.

If you want your ensemble to have personality, forget everything you know about what colors “go together.” There are no rules! Combine neons, neutrals, pastels, and more into one outfit to make it purposeful and to stand out.

Wear a matching set.

This is one of the easiest ways to look chic. Any coordinating two-piece like a pantsuit, skirt suit, knit set, or even sweatsuit looks automatically fashionable. Then all you have to do is pick out your shoes and other accessories to go with it.

Pair a blazer with a graphic tee.

A luxe blazer over an edgier graphic T-shirt paired with jeans pulls off that “high-low” look. It’s an effortless ‘fit that’s both casual and dressed up, no matter where you’re heading.
