Even though I believe that all animal prints should count as neutrals, I understand that a leopard print mini skirt might feel a bit much for the daytime. Adding an oversized (cotton!) knit and ballet flats is a perfect way to tame the beast and achieve the perfect effortless day look.

This look is all about playing with proportions, masculine, and feminine elements to achieve the perfect balance. The boxy jean jacket adds a boyish flare to the matching denim skirt, and creates and interesting contrast with the eeny meeny proportions of the bra top. Lastly, the scrunched up socks and chunky loafers elevate the look with a preppy touch.

This is the perfect look for these hot summer days! Sometimes the only remedy for the heat is baring as much skin as possible: an ultra mini skirt and a slightly cropped tank top are a must, and flip flop sandals allow your feet to breathe too.

Pairing “high” and “low” elements is a super simple trick to create an interesting outfit. In this case, the Fendi Baguette and the kitten heels create the “high”, elegant elements, while the sporty nylon jacket is more casual and “low”.

6. An oversized blazer, a plaid skirt, bug eye sunglasses, and a graphic bag
Establishing some focal points in your outfit is very important: you can easily do this by picking one or two statement pieces and building the rest of the look around them. In this case, the focal points are the Chopova Lowena skirt and the graffiti Balenciaga City bag: their bright colours and prints are true eye-catchers! The rest of the look should be simple but not plain: think an oversized blazer, bug-eye sunglasses, and chunky loafers.
