Head Turner: How to Elevate Your Everyday Basics
We all are guilty of that section in our closet that serves us in a purely functional way. That group of everyday essentials that provide comfort, ease, versatility, etc., but that might not hit the high note on the style scale. Well, it’s time to turn up the volume on your daily staples and transform them from actual basics to fashion statements. So, how do you elevate your weekly wardrobe and give your look a certain je nais se quoi? Convert your coziest turtleneck into a luxe tunic or choker neckline. Modernize your jeans’n’tee look by donning distressed, straight leg or boyfriend jeans and a ruffle or tulle tee. Refresh your classic cardigan with a maxi length robe cardi or fringe patterned cape. Swap your oh-so-comfy leggings and a sweatshirt combo for trendy track pants and oversized hoodies or military inspired parkas. Just because your off-duty favorites need to serve a purpose doesn’t necessarily mean they can’t be standout staples. Shop our picks below to build the ultimate everyday essentials wardrobe.
