5 Ways to Look Expensive
First impressions are key. The number one concern we have when making a good impact on a new person is the desire to put your best foot forward. So, today we are going to be talking about 5 different ways to look expensive. Now looking expensive is not the number one important thing to do in life things like your health and family could definitely top this but it is something that this column is about and I am here to share it with you.
One of the first things you can add to your wardrobe to look more expensive is to wear pointed toe shoes. Whether it be heels or flats a pointed toe shoe elevates the look that makes you look more classic and elegant. There is something about the crisp straight lines that can make the look sleek.
The next thing you can do is invest in entry-level designer pieces this can be anything from Gucci, Ferragamo, Louis Vuitton the list can go on but their pieces like the belts, scarfs or even their other accessories. You can add them to your outfit and mix and match them to create that crisp look. Like tieing your designer Fendi scarf around the handle of your bag or synching your coat in at the waist with a Gucci belt.
Now, this step is what a lot of people do well: simple makeup. Though it is simple, it can be easy to go overboard. Often times people forget that when done the right way, it can affect your appearance. Keeping the makeup simple accentuating your features is what really makes this step stand out.
Another thing you can do that will elevate your look is to wear dainty or simple jewelry. Often times a crisp blouse paired with a simple diamond earring or a simple bar necklace can make all the difference in an outfit. Also usually when pairing the simple pieces you can mix and match them and create such diverse looks but makes a statement like "Hi, I am well put together."
Lastly is structured pieces! Structured pieces are the way to go. One of the first things that people see when they look at you is what you are wearing and some of the pieces that you are wearing can tell a lot about you. Wearing things like a structured coat or structured bag will add that expensive flair that you need. So if you are looking to invest start out with a structured jacket from Zara and maybe a structured bag from Top Shop.
