The next time you’re feeling down, look to these outfit pieces that will give you a boost of confidence for days when you want to feel like Kanye, but really feel like Charlie Sheen (without the drugs and prostitutes, that is.)
1. Black Bag
Like the iconic LBD, the LBP is another must-have in every girl’s wardrobe. A black bag is like red lipstick: it makes you feel confident the instant you try it on.
2. A Bold Jumpsuit
Shoutout to the bold red jumpsuit! Red is a color that’s associated with confidence and power, so when in doubt, wear red.
3. Or a Go-to Dress
A great dress can easily turn your day around. All it has to be is your favorite dress–nothing fancy or trendy. Chances are, you’ve gotten compliments on this dress before so the next time you slip it on, those memories will be with you.
4. A Structured Blazer
Blazers are so versatile that, regardless of your personal style, can be worn on days when you’re feeling less than lackluster. A structured blazer is classy and elegant and is sure to give you the boost you’re looking for.
5. A Pair of Well-Tailored Pants
A pair of immaculately tailored dress pants can make you look incredibly polished and feel as if you’re on a Vogue photoshoot. Bella Hadid, here we come!
6. Button-Down Shirt
Chances are you’re more than well aware of our love for the classic button down shirt. This kind of shirt has a relaxed confidence about it which is probably a reason why it never goes out of style. You can pair this with practically anything: skirts, shorts, overalls, or pants.
7. A Leather Jacket Over Anything
This leather jacket is the ultimate cool girl fashion staple popularized by Madonna in the ’80s. It’s effortless, goes with formal and informal outfits, and acts like a security blanket whenever you’re out somewhere intimidating (think: Hollywood Hills house party). Whether it’s for networking or your Tinder date (you can find love there!), this closet piece helps you exude an infectious confidence.
8. A Frivolous Skirt
While most of our pieces in the closet are versatile and could be mix and matched, this isn’t one of those pieces. But trust me, the second I saw this piece I knew it held some captivating power of its own. It might not go with everything, but it’s a great, confidence-boosting piece to have in your closet.
9. A Killer Pair of (Easy to Walk In) Heels
Emphasis on the “easy to walk in” part. If you don’t feel comfortable, don’t wear them because instead of boosting your confidence, it’ll only stress you out. Whenever you need a little sumptin’ sumptin’ in your day, swap your sneakers or flats with an extra inch or two. Heels will both lengthen your stride and add a confident sway to your hips.
