Blame the general laziness of the season, but it's easy to fall into a less-than-inspired routine when it comes to getting dressed. I'm fairly certain there have been months where I've followed the same denim cutoffs + oversize tee + flat sandals formula every single weekend. And while that's not necessarily a bad thing (sometimes you just have better things to think about!), it's not the most creative way to make the most out of your wardrobe, either.
So this year, I'm going to make a little more of an effort to break out of the ole comfort zone and get some wear out of pieces that have been languishing in my closet. And for a little inspo, who better to turn to than celebs who have mastered the art of casual style, like Gigi Hadid and Jourdan Dunn?
Below, see seven styling tricks you'll want to try this month and then shop pieces that will make doing so a breeze.
