Creating an old money style or simply looking rich is all about bringing together pieces that look effortlessly polished. It’s all about creating timeless looks that give an elegant vibe. Many of us have items in our wore drop but don’t know how to assemble them. Here I am sharing a few simple tips:
It is important to create a vision board where you put together the looks you want to wear. It all involves simple lines, muted colours (no colourful patterns) and classic shapes. It is important not to follow trends or bring too many designer logos but rather to focus on the quality and fit of the items.
Focus on quality fabrics like cashmere, tweed, cotton and linen in soft neutral shades. Elegant and simple accessories bring such a huge difference- like, gold watches, and simple-shaped sunglasses to frame your face. It is important to keep the accessories within the same tone and most likely in neutral (beige bag, beige sandals or shoes and beige belt – gold earrings, gold watch or bangle plus keeping the gold in shoes or belt), it will create a visual symmetrical balance. I am listing items to make it easy for you how to look elegant and rich:
- Strip Shirts (you can easily add colour to the outfit)
- Plain Silk Blouse
- Blazer in Neutral (black, navy, white)
- Tweet Jacket
- Strip Cardigan
- Plain Linen Skirt
- Plain Silk Skirt
- Plain T-shirts in neutrals
- Plain Trouser (black, cream, navy)
- Plain white dress
- Plain black dress
- Leather belt
- Bag (keep it simple and classic)
- Sunglass (I would invest in a designer one)
- Simple gold jewellery
- Shoes:
- Heels (black, white or beige)
- Sandals or Flats in Neutrals
You can always mix and match the items throughout the seasons.
I hope you find this post helpful.
