You know those loafers you wear just to work? Well, they can be great allies when it comes to doing a totally free makeover. Wear them with shorts and t-shirts, summer dresses, midi skirts … Your style will be much cooler.

Nothing below

Nothing below

Sometimes. A change of look can happen by giving a new life to our old clothes by wearing them in a different way. For example, if you like to wear blazers to go out at night or go to a party, next time, try wearing them with nothing underneath, like celebrities do with a nice bra or bralette. It is very sexy and sophisticated.

Mix and Match

Mix and Match

Mix garments that until now had not occurred to you to wear together like Dakota Johnson has done here. She wears a slip top with a boho skirt and sneakers. We can't like the result more.

The handkerchief

The handkerchief

It is one of the great bets of the season and the truth is that it makes you change your look in a matter of seconds. You can wear it as a headband, add it to your favorite hairstyles , place it in a bag, on the wrist … and of course, on the neck. There are a thousand ways to wear a scarf! We tell you how and where.

Take the scissors

Take the scissors

And give those jeans you don't wear that much anymore a few cuts. You will get a renewed and very modern look without spending anything. We give you more (easy) ideas to customize your jeans to make them look new.

Unbutton some buttons

Unbutton some buttons

It seems incredible that something so simple can do so much for you. If you have a dress or skirt with buttons, button only the necessary ones so as not to show too much and let your legs show through the opening that will remain. The same goes for shirts, a little cleavage and the look seems something else.

Search the attic

Search the attic

In yours, in your mother's, in your grandmother's … You can find real treasures like this vintage-style blouse worn by Sienna Miller. We know that mothers have always been our best stylists so it doesn't hurt to take a look in their closet …

Create your uniform

Create your uniform

Many professionals have done it in order to save time when dressing each morning. In addition, if you know what suits you, you will always look equally beautiful and favored.

Bet on jewels

Bet on jewels

They are able to give a different touch to even the most basic looks like this one from Rita Ora. If it weren't for her necklaces and hoop earrings, she would go unnoticed. In addition, surely you have a good collection saved and that due to laziness you hardly use it.

Party + casual

Party + casual

To get much more out of your wardrobe and create stylish looks, what you have to do is take your most 'arranged' clothes and mix them with other more casual ones, as Dakota Johnson has done here with the ruffled top, the high-heeled sandals and his baggy jeans.

Accessories from the 80s

Accessories from the 80s

Or from the 90s or 2000s. Almost everything comes back and if you are one of those who keep, you can find authentic wonders in the trunk of memories such as white pumps or maxi earrings, both very fashionable this season.

Sports for everything

Sports for everything

They are the star footwear right now and it is that they can be worn with all the looks and for having given them a completely different dimension. Emily Ratajkowski wears them with her summer dress but you can wear them with skirts, suits, shorts …

The shirt, your great ally

The shirt, your great ally

You may only wear them on weekends or to the gym, but basic T-shirts can be a lot of play. It is about making a game of opposites like Mandy Moore in this image. By wearing the shirt with a dress skirt, you make the look more balanced and that you can use it more times. A striped t-shirt will achieve the same effect, so take yours out of the closet.

Blazer with dress?

Blazer with dress?

Yes and a thousand times yes. Blazers can be worn many more times than we do. They go wonderfully with hippy air dresses like this one but can also be worn with denim shorts. Again, it is a question of balance.

Give it imagination!

Give it imagination!

Anything can become a wonderful accessory if you have a little knack. On the internet you can find tutorials to make a bag with an old book, transform a T-shirt into a dress or decorate some sandals. It's all a matter of taking your imagination and getting to it

If you think that to renew your way of dressing you have to invest a lot and spend days choosing clothes, you are wrong. With what you already have in your closet, our tricks and a little imagination, you can give your style a spin without spending a single euro. We tell you how.

Free but stylish makeover

  • Unexpected combinations . If you are one of those people who has sets mounted on his head and does not come out of there, bad. What you have to do is mix all the clothes in your closet with each other until you find new combinations. You may not finish seeing them at first or you think they are too risky but many celebrities and influencers do and is that the key to giving a completely new look to your way of dressing without having to invest anything.
  • Change your shoes. If you have loafers or bluchers in your closet and you only wear them to work in winter, you should give them a new chance and wear them with skirts and dresses the rest of the year. The result is much more flattering than you think. The same with those sandals that you bought for a wedding and have not worn again. Take them for a walk!
  • Make shirts your best allies. They are much more versatile than you think. The key is to combine them with more formal garments, such as a lace skirt or a slip dress . Thus you create a balance that allows you to take advantage of both garments on more occasions.
  • Turn to vintage . Surely you have a box in your closet with clothes from a long time ago or maybe your mother or grandmother has them. Rescue a special piece (or a few) and combine it with more current clothes. Your look will seem different.
  • Slippers can be worn 24/7 . Sneakers, sneakers, trainers, or whatever you want to call them are the star footwear of the season so don't cut yourself off and wear them with dresses, midi skirts, dress pants … Everything is allowed.
