- 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.

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??

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.
