- High waist jeans that make my butt look good
- Tuck the t-shirt in to define my waist
- Cute sneakers with no-show socks (I like all white to keep it neutral, but you could do a pop of color or pattern here). Sometimes I'll trade out the sneakers for cute flats.
- Hair clean and styled, if I have to do a pony or bun due to time and condition of my hair, I take time to make it look nice.
- Clean makeup, plus lipstick
- Stud earrings and a couple layered necklaces, plus my rings.
- Either my suede tote from Sezane or my classic Coach saddle bag
- Great sunglasses

It's definitely all in the details. There's also a version of this where I wear slouchier jeans, a graphic tee that is more oversized, Birks, my Uniqlo moon bag, and a messy bun, but that's for when I'm in super casual mode and not for work or school functions.


Whar sneakers? I need a few new pairs.

Sort of this look, which can be varied quite a bit depending on season and how "dressy" you want to make it.



I want to like this but…where is she going??


She looks cheap. Too much boob and the stilettos are too dressy for faded jeans.

Thank you for all the suggestions! They are very helpful in making me feel more creative doing some online shopping this weekend for both casual days and dressing things up a smidge.

How about some necklaces
A haircut you think looks good
Lipstick

For the bag - do you want to lean into being easy/cool/casual or get a little more fussy and structured there for contrast?



And now we are using the stupidest phrase ever when discussing fashion?

I thought we were done with the “lean in” BS.


Erm. I think we are done with the concept of “lean in” as popularized by Sheryl Sandberg. Not PP, but the use of lean in here has zero to do with that and is inline with the typical use of the words pre-book. Wow that triggered you.
