From catwalks to sidewalks, some of our favourite models make it look easy. Off-duty style is relaxed, natural and very easy to replicate. A carefree chic attitude is often even more eye-catching than this season’s runway outfits.
By following the basic formula of denim + t-shirt + killer shoe + staple bag you can strut just like Miranda Kerr. Chances are you already have most of the above hanging in your wardrobe.
Jeans
Denim is such a broad term. Focusing on jeans, most models are seen sporting the tightest skinny or cigarette leg shapes that cut off just above or on the ankle to allow their shoes to do the talking. This also gives the illusion that you have the longest pins ever! However, retro high-waist flares are also go-to favourites. J Brand, Paige and IDA are some of the best brands out there.
T-shirt
Your tee can be plain or branded however must have a neutral theme. Choosing either black or white will add to the simplicity of your outfit. T by Alexander Wang, Noisy May and James Perse make the best jersey tops that won’t break the bank.
Killer shoe
Killer shoes can be taken whichever way you desire. There is no denying it, Christian Louboutin is the king of killer and a flash of red will automatically give your outfit the look of luxury. Sophia Webster and Nicholas Kirkwood will add humour and get people talking. But you don’t always have to choose heels. Slipper shoes in leopard or Valentino Rockstud flip-flops will work in exactly the same way.
Staple bag
And lastly, the staple bag should be an extension of you. This bag has to be a tote that you will carry every day and will go with every outfit. My choice? The Givenchy Antigona – in any colour! This bag is structured and comes in small or medium, perfect for those who carry loads and those who travel light. Chanel’s 2.55, Celine’s medium luggage tote and Saint Laurent’s sac de jour will also do the trick.
With your outfit shorted all that’s left to do is make sure your shoulders are back, your head is high, your sunglasses are on and you strut like never before!
