As the adage goes, sometimes less is more. When it comes to your personal style and putting together outfits, we'll be the first ones to say that the most important thing to keep in mind is to have fun and be creative with your wardrobe. What you wear is a representation of your personality and point of view, so if you want to pile on necklaces à la Iris Apfel, do it! That being said, often a super-simple, clean, minimalist outfit can feel just as empowering as the former—the kind of outfit that doesn't involve a whole lot of energy or time but once assembled looks polished and effortless all at once. While you may turn to the French for inspiration on how to achieve this aesthetic, today we're looking at celebrities who are known for their pared-down style.
Ahead, we rounded up four women who have a knack for styling staples in a way that feels simple and chic. See their looks, shop their outfits, and enjoy the benefits of a laid-back style vibe.
