Take your best outfits and hang them together so they are easy to grab. Notice the pieces that you wear again and again. Are there some pieces that could make your wardrobe more versatile? Lululemon is a great source for pants like these that look great with a hoodie at a soccer game or with a nice top to go out to dinner. Tops in basic shapes make casual dressing for running around town or staying home much easier. I love Evereve for wearable, quality pieces.

This trick works really well with a patterned top. Why not shop in outfits? Find a pattern you love and then match it to a pant that is comfortable in a color that works well. Keep this outfit all ironed or steamed and ready to go hanging together in the closet. This will make it simple to dress casual and still look polished!

When you want to be really casual and still look pulled together, check for great finds in the we made too much section of your favorite stores!

Keep a pair of shoes in your bag to change into. This helps a lot if you wear certain shoes to work, but would rather not wear them anywhere else. A pair of Rothy’s can be perfect for impromptu shopping trips after work. They look nice and stylish, but are easy and look effortless.

A cute windbreaker pulls together a casual look really well as does a wrap sweater. These are great fall options! Both look great on a taller Woman, and if you are shorter like I am, try tucking your top in and leaving the jacket or wrap open to give a long leg look.

Things I try to remember when putting together casual outfits:

• Use monochromatic outfits when going super casual
• The best fitting pieces will give a more polished look
• Keep a patterned bag or shoes for added interest
