5 Tips to Rock Your Casual Look

Keeping your outfit a mix between casual and comfortable can be a bit dicey to pull off. If you think comfortable, your mind goes to yoga pants and baggy T-shirts. But you can’t wear yoga pants at an informal lunch or a casual colleague hangout after office. 

Whether you like it or not, how your dress up speaks volumes about you. However, with work, meetings, or informal hangouts, dress codes can be pretty hard to navigate.

How to Pull off a Casual and Comfortable Look

When someone says casual meetup after office, all you can think of is putting on a lip color and some jewelry. However, you don’t need to look like you’re off for an office meeting even while you’re chilling with your colleagues or friends after work or university. 

This is why we are here with some expert tips on how you can rock your casual look this summer:

1. Short Shirt with High Waisted Jeans

If you want to go Western, a great combination is short shirts with high waisted jeans. You can be creative with your styles to set yourself apart. Floral prints are great for you if you prefer something feminine. But you can never go wrong with geometric prints like these from Alkaram Studio’s unstitched 1pc collection. Get them stitched into kurtis or short-length shirts. You can even pair them with straight trousers to get a comfortable and casual look.

2. Kurtis with Jeans

Pairing kurtis with jeans is a trendy and versatile outfit choice that combines traditional elements with a casual twist. Whether you prefer slim fit jeans or mom jeans, both can work well with a kurti to create a stylish and comfortable ensemble. Slim fit jeans are a popular choice for a more fitted and tailored look. They create a sleek silhouette that pairs well with the flowy nature of kurtis. Alternatively, mom jeans offer a relaxed and slightly baggy fit, giving a more casual and comfortable vibe. You can choose a style that suits your preference and is perfect for your body shape.

3. Add Chunky Jewelry

Chunky jewelry has become a popular trend in recent years, and for good reason. It has the power to instantly elevate any casual look, adding a touch of glamor and personality. Whether you’re dressing up a simple t-shirt and jeans or have adorned a simple lawn outfit, chunky jewelry can be the perfect accessory to make a statement.

Chunky jewelry doesn’t mean only oversized earrings or neckpieces. You can add a stack of metal bangles in your hand or a pair of chunky hoops in your ears. An oversized necklace with stones also comes under chunky jewelry and can become the highlight of your outfit.

4. Invest in Comfortable Flats

If you plan to be out and about for the entire day, heels will likely tire you out. You’ll end up wanting to go home even before the fun has begun. 

To make sure you rock your casual look and stay comfortable for as long as the gathering lasts, consider investing in a pair of comfortable flats. You can even consider investing in sandals which have medicated soles but have great looks. 

5. Go for Bright Accessories

If you’re wearing neutral colors to balance a professional yet casual look, you can make a style statement with bright accessories. You might want to carry a red handbag with your white ensemble or yellow jewelry with an all-black outfit.

You can even go with a bright silk dupatta on a comfortable all-white dress to make it pop and look casual yet elegant at the same time.  

Final Words

Your casual style speaks volumes about your personality, and it’s essential to carry it well, even when dressing down. While baggy t-shirts and yoga pants have their charm, there’s so much more you can do to elevate your casual look and make a lasting impression.
