These Are The Easiest Ways To Make It Look Like You Have It All Together, No Extra Money Or Fancy Clothing Required
Do you ever see someone on the street, look at their outfit and the way they carry themselves, and think, “Wow, that person must have it all together?”
After the pandemic, dressing to impress or looking put together every day has been a challenge for many of us, especially if you started working remotely and resorted to wearing sweatshirts and leggings daily, which is what I did.
Many people think that to look like you have your life together, you have to have a lot of money, live in a nice house, etc. However, you don’t have to have all those things to look like you have your act together. You just have to know how to keep yourself looking polished.
If you want to look like someone who seemingly has it all together, here are a few tips for you.
Step up your essentials
Does your go-to pair of jeans have an old hole in them? Are your workout leggings over five years old? Does your jacket have a stain on it you can’t get out? These are clear signs that it’s time to replace your basic clothes.
If you want to look like you have your life together, you need to say goodbye to the clothes and accessories in your wardrobe that are clearly worn down. Replace them with a nicer quality brand if you can afford it! Regardless, you don’t want to wear any super old or damaged clothes and accessories if you don’t have to.
Go for business casual
If you want to look more polished in your daily life, you should consider dressing more business casual. That means pulling out some button-down shirts, loafers, blazers, skirts, etc. Looking up and wearing business casual outfits is a quick way to feel more sophisticated and put together.

Plus, you don’t have to dress in full work attire; there are ways to wear business casual clothes in a casual setting.
Always wear jewelry
I always feel under-dressed or like my outfit for the day is ‘incomplete’ when I’m not wearing jewelry. Jewelry is always the perfect finishing touch, and you should embrace wearing it every single day.
Even if you don’t want to wear elaborate earrings or layered necklaces daily, ensure you have a collection of basic minimalist jewelry.
Upgrade your outwear and accessories
Even if you can’t always look your nicest, with your hair and makeup done and your nicest clothes on, you can conceal yourself in some great outerwear.
Invest in a trendy coat, like a good quality trench coat, and carry around your nicest bag. Wearing nice outwear is an easy way to make it look like you know what you’re about.
At the end of the day, no one has their life together all the time. But to feel more comfortable in our skin and get through the tough times, sometimes we have to fake it until we make it. Now get out there and strut your stuff!
