Looking put together may seem like a daunting task. In reality, once you get a few key tips down its second nature. Don’t believe me? Just watch! (Anyone else now have that Bruno Mars song stuck in their head?!)
So there are some quick tips to make you instantly look put together that I’m going to share. But first, how cute is this dress?! It’s just the most precious thing for Spring and Summer. It comes in other colors too. Just loving this look!
Ok, now back to your regular scheduled post!
Keep It Simple, Stupid
Have you heard that saying? Keep it simple, stupid. When you are in a funk and feel like you have nothing to wear, keep it simple. You don’t need to wear anything over the top. Throw on a simple tee and jeans and pair them with your favorite new handbag or shoes. It doesn’t need to be that complicated.
Sometimes less is more. Focus on neutral colors (white, black, grey, blue, blush) as your foundation and add pops of colors as you see fit.
Here are some of my favorite tricks to keep it simple:
- Keep a rolling rack like this one, of all your favorite in-season clothing (and new purchases too). This makes it easy to find something when you are in a rush or simply just don’t know what to wear.
- Buy simple shirts and bodysuits to layer. Love this bodysuit! It’s so easy to throw on a jacket or cardigan to look more put together.
- Remember less is more! It’s not necessary to be over the top ALL the time. I do have to remind myself of this. Keep it simple with neutral colors and simple shorts and shirts.

Invest in Basics
Investing in good basics make it so much easier to look put together. A good basic tee (in white, black, and grey), little black dress, camel coat, and tanks are essential. If you invest in basics you can build your wardrobe around them. It will make it easier to get dressed in the morning (Sigh mornings, here are 5 tips to become a morning person) and make you look put together!

Buy Your Favorite Silhouette’s, And Then Buy More!
Everyone has a silhouette they just look amazing in and feel like they can run the world. Those are the types of clothes you should continue to buy. Why? You will wear them, you feel good about yourself, and you look put together.
Keep buying what looks good on you. It’s a waste to have clothes in your closet that you never wear. It’s ok to buy the same shirt in 5 different colors if you love and wear it. I totally do this (especially with designer shoes, yikes)!

Shoes & Handbags Are Actually A Girl’s Best Friend
An easy way to look put together is to wear your basics and pair them with your funky shoes and sophisticated handbag. A great pair of shoes totally transforms an outfit. These shoes will make you look SO HOT!
A simple yet ordinary outfit can look unique when paired with great accessories. I’m all about splurging on designer handbags and shoes!
This is one of my best EVER designer shoe purchases!
Throw On A Dress or Jumpsuit
Look put together with this super simple tip: throw on a dress or jumpsuit. It’s one piece of clothing and just like that you are ready for the day. I adore dresses for this reason. Pick a dress in a silhouette that works with your body type, and you will want to wear it all the time.
Dresses are just so easy! I love to splurge on a few amazing ones each season, and mix in affordable ones too. I can’t get enough of this designer, her dresses are impeccable.
