I Track Sofia Richie's Outfits Religiously, and These Basics Are Key to Her Look
When it comes to fashion, 2023 may have been Sofia Richie's best year ever. Not only has the style star been spotted wearing head-to-toe Prada, Khaite, and Proenza Schouler on the regular, but she also had an unforgettable wedding complete with several custom Chanel outfits. To say she's got good taste would be an understatement.
But it's true: Richie has an incredible sense of personal style and can put together a look using a combination of the simplest but most versatile basics that could be part of anyone's wardrobe. Yes, even some of her most casual outfits are still designer—that's the quiet luxury trend at work—but that doesn't mean they can't easily be replicated using a combination of high-end and more affordable pieces.
So we've picked out seven of Richie's best looks that are comprised mostly of wardrobe basics and found similar pieces to shop. From the classic white T-shirt to surprising accessories and several pairs of sunglasses, there are just a few key pieces needed to achieve her everyday and even more elevated looks. Just stick to the basics, and you'll be on your way to sporting Sofia Richie's celeb style soon.
On Sofia Richie: Khaite shirt; Manolo Blahnik shoes; Khaite sunglasses; Loewe bag
A great pair of white denim never goes out of style, no matter the season.
This squishy Loewe bag is a celeb favorite.
On Sofia Richie: Dior top; Saint Laurent pants; Khaite shoes; Loro Piana bag
When putting together a monochrome look, choose special pieces that aren't too plain or too fussy.
It's worth investing in a classic pair of black trousers, especially when the fabric is this luxurious.
Richie often matches her bag to her shoes, even if the rest of her outfit is a different color.
On Sofia Richie: Loro Piana jacket, skirt, and bag; Saint Laurent shoes
A great leather jacket will only get better looking with age; invest as you see fit.
When in doubt, throw on a slip skirt and a similarly colored top. It's a look that works for all seasons.
On Sofia Richie: Khaite tTshirt, pants, boots, and bag
It's safe to assume that the majority of Richie's wardrobe is comprised of black and white basics, so why not wear them together?
When it comes to T-shirts, find a fit that works for your style, and buy it in every color.
When an outfit is simple, style it with eye-catching accessories.
On Sofia Richie: Proenza Schouler dress and bag; Manolo Blahnik shoes; Saint Laurent sunglasses

Style the look with bright-red shoes—it's one of our favorite fashionable trends of 2023.
None of Sofia Richie's outfits are complete without a pair of sunglasses.
On Sofia Richie: Prada top, pants, coat, shoes, sunglasses, and bag; Anita Ko jewelry
She may be a California girl through and through, but Richie certainly knows a thing or two about excellent outerwear.
Richie loves an unexpected pop of red, even if the garment itself is super simple.
On Sofia Richie: Bottega Veneta sunglasses; The Row bag; Dior shoes
Richie has a collection of designer handbags, but she's most often seen with a leather tote, like this go-to design by The Row. It goes with—and holds—just about everything.
Try Richie's styling trick and leave a button-up undone for a more casual outfit.
It's true: Richie wears white denim almost as much as black or blue.
Richie is a fitness fanatic, but knows that there's a difference between sporty sneakers and athletic shoes; wear each accordingly.
If you're not prone to losing things, we recommend investing in a single pair of the most basic sunglasses that will go with every outfit. The cost per wear will be next to nothing.
