Making an outfit interesting and eye-catching can be easy if you learn a few tricks.
Of course, art, music, the places you go and the people you meet on the way come as repertory to create your own aesthetic and make you better at it.
In a more practical way, dressing well also takes a little patience, training, and most of all knowledge: what fits you best, what is your style, and what makes you feel beautiful.
One of the best ways to start making your outfits more interesting is by investing in third pieces. This can help you transform and multiply your options giving you movement and a more effortlessly creative vibe.
By investing, you don't necessarily need to shop many jackets, vests, or kimonos. Go to your closer and think is there anything here that I could use as a third layer? You will be surprised by how many button-downs, cardigans, and other pieces can come in handy.
Even a dress. This one (can you believe this is a dress?), became an official third piece when I washed it and shrank. It became too short, but I loved the print and the fabric, and I didn't want to let it go. It already worked for me as a third piece is so many outfits I can't count.
The best thing about it is the print. The brightness of the birds and plants gives it a freshness that even though this is a black outfit, it looks ready for a summer day.
