This Is Where I Go for Expensive-Looking Outfit Ideas
If you want to look a little more polished every day and build up a collection of easy-to-wear elegant outfits, then there's one person I'd advise you follow: London-based blogger Monikh. Whether she's wearing H&M or The Row, everything in her wardrobe looks like a considered investment piece, and she has a really honed her personal style. She is the queen of tonal dressing (often sticking to a strict palette of camel, cream, white, brown and muted pinks) and only occasionally adds rich colours like sage green and deep red. Her look is all about ease and laid-back luxury, as she favours natural fabrics and relaxed silhouettes. Keep scrolling for to see and shop Monikh's best expensive-looking outfits.
Style Notes: Monikh is a big fan of tonal dressing, and she shows that a tracksuit can look really elegant so long as you opt for knitted co-ords in the beige family.
Style Notes: Here Monikh embraces a schoolgirl look by wearing a red pinafore denim dress by Alexa Chung and two hair slides worn on one side of her parting.
Style Notes: Monikh tends to stick to light shades and fabrics, opting for fine knits, silks and linens.
Style Notes: You might think that a snake print would look tacky, but Monikh shows that as long as you pick a fabric that isn't shiny, it's actually the opposite.
Style Notes: Monikh is a big fan of basics, such as this £30 jersey slip dress from H&M.
Style Notes: She calls this linen suit, white T-shirt and velvet slides combo her "Chandler Bing" look.
