There are people that were simply born with an eye for style. No matter the occasion, they will always look effortlessly chic whether they are wearing a pair of pink sandals or an old tracksuit. They were born with a gift and might not even know what rules they unconsciously follow, but here are some of their secrets that we common mortals can steal from them in the attempt to look just as stylish!

1. They aren’t afraid of any store

Super stylish women are able to find something cool in basically every store they step in. No matter if they shop amazing Net A Porter, a vintage shop, or a flea market, they will always find something that suits their style that’s why they’re not afraid to walk into any store.

2. They know how to style themselves

Indeed, these wonderful women are able to style themselves according to their own taste and mood. Sometimes it’s not the dress itself that is beautiful but they way you style it! Sometimes accessories, or a timeless blazer like the Rhodes blazer In Italian Wool, can completely switch up an outfit.

Tip: Net A Porter has an amazing online magazine with amazing tips from their personal stylist on how to wear your workwear this season.

3. They don’t just copy and paste

Street style is a great source of inspiration, but just because a celebrity is wearing something it doesn’t mean that we all have to, or that it would suit us all. Truly stylish women might get inspired by others, but don’t simply copy whatever they wear.

4. They don’t dress to impress

They dress for themselves. They don’t want to impress anyone with their style, they just love fashion for the sake of fashion. They dress to feel comfortable and confident.

5. They know labels don’t mean cool

Ok, who doesn’t love a Chloe bag? However, these women can be the most stylish in a room even if they pop up in a black tee and a pair of baggy jeans. It is all about how you wear it, not the signature your clothes have.

6. They have fun

They are not slaves to fashion, they dress to have fun. And if there is a trend they don’t like they simply don’t follow it, no matter if it gets the attention of all the magazines.

7. They play with accessories

They know how to transform the most boring look into the most stylish one by simply wearing a simple yet elegant Kate Spade necklace or a unique pair of earrings from Monica Vinader.

8. They don’t overdo it

Instead, they always look a little bit ‘less done’. For example, if everyone in the room is styling an elegant and chic hairstyle they will probably be the one with the messy bun. Yet, they kill it!

9. They know classic won’t betray them

A classic style is always a winning choice. While some trends might be a bit too much or may result in ‘trying too hard’, these women know how to rock the classics the most stylish way.

10. They show personality in their shoes

Shoes are probably the hardest item to choose in any outfit. However, shoes are our best allies when we want to show off our personality. That’s why stylish women know how to spice up a normal outfit with an interesting pair of shoes! Check out our 38 favorite shoes this week here.
