I’m a real sucker for cute! I just love things that are cute- and that’s no different with my fashion. There’s so many cute things in the fashion world right now! From animal sweaters to penguin earmuffs, the cuteness is everywhere and it’s not just for kids. But as I’m getting older, I want to look chic and sophisticated. I look young as it is, so I don’t want my clothing to make me look even more youthful! However, the truth is- as I always say- it’s all in the way you style it. Use the following tips to add elegance to your favorite cute piece!

Here’s my From Cute to Chic Style Guide-

1. One Cute Per Outfit: I know it may be hard to resist all of the cuteness, but it’s important to keep it to a minimum if you want to maintain a sophisticated look. You definitely don’t want to go overboard!

2. Neutral Colors or Deep Hues: That’s right, color is so important! By choosing a ‘cute’ piece that’s a neutral or deep hue, it brings a level of elegance to it. It no longer looks like a sweater you borrowed from your daughter!

3. Classic Pairings: I’ll say it again- it’s all in the way you style it! The full look is extremely important because it’s not just about that one piece; it’s about the entire outfit. By choosing classic pairings, it will take that ‘cute’ piece and transform it into a chic look.
