There’s something about the end of winter that seems to get everyone antsy. The days are longer due to daylight savings time, but it’s still pretty chilly out. Feel like your clothing needs some refreshing? I’m sharing three tips to refresh your style in five minutes or less.
Go bold and opt for winter white
White clothing is often associated with warm weather, however when you want to refresh your style, white is a great option! If you’re not used to wearing white clothing during chilly months, it can instantly brighten up your outfit and bring a sense of lightness to your style. The best way to refresh your style is to try something different, so push yourself a little out of your comfort zone. Adding a pop of white to your outfit will help break up dark colors and heavier clothing during these chilly months. I’ve opted for white pants, but a white blazer or coat is a great option too!
Play with patterns
I’m a big fan of stripes, and often live by the motto that you can never have too many striped shirts, but when you want to refresh your style, try something different. Instead of grabbing the same patterned top you always gravitate towards, pick something a little different. Maybe you go for a pattern in a color that you don’t normally wear, or perhaps instead of a patterned top, you pick a patterned coat or even printed pants. Patterns can be integrated in key pieces like pants, tops, and outerwear, or can be used in accent pieces like scarves, ties, socks, or bags. You likely have some sort of patterned garment or accent piece in your wardrobe, so when you want to refresh your look quickly, integrate a piece of clothing that you already own! By styling a piece that you already own in a different way, it will help you refresh your look without spending money.
Add an accessory
I usually believe that less is more, but when you want to give your style a little boost, adding an accessory is an easy and quick way to change things up. It could be as simple as swapping your stud earrings for hoops or drop earrings. You could also add on a light scarf, a hat, or a belt. By adding something a little out of your everyday norm, you’ll feel as though you’re changing up your style in a small yet effective way.
