I know firsthand that there's nothing more annoying than being challenged after saying (or yelling), "I have nothing to wear," but I'm sorry—I must tell you that I'm here today to do just that. Even though I'm constantly shopping, I too often feel like I have no clothes, and quite frankly, it makes no sense. I have countless cute pieces in my closet, and at the very least, I have enough basics to put together summer outfit after summer outfit. What I lack at times, I realized, is the creativity or inspiration to do so.
With that in mind, I went looking—on Instagram, of course—for outfit ideas that I knew could be replicated with clothes I already own, and honestly, it was pretty easy. After finding a plethora of looks, I narrowed down my nine favorites to share with you here today because, as always, I've got your back. To see which made the cut and shop them if you please (this is Who What Wear, after all), keep scrolling.
1. Button-Down Shirt + Tank + Jeans
And don't even worry about trying to match all your colors perfectly. In fact, this look proves that it might even work better when you don't.
Shop the look:
2. Silk Scarf + White Dress
Apparently, the simple addition of a silk scarf around your head makes your white-dress outfit 10 times chicer.
Shop the look:
3. Tank + Slip Skirt
Tank? Check. Slip skirt? Check. Outfit? Check.
Shop the look:
4. DIY Scarf Top + Shorts
And just like that, you're transported to a tropical vacation.
Shop the look:
5. Button-Down + Matching Activewear Set
Here is your reminder that matching activewear sets always look put together, but a button-down will make your look even better.
Shop the look:
6. Muscle Tank + Trousers
This look can take you anywhere, from work to dinner to happy hour.
Shop the look:
7. Cardigan + Strappy Dress
Make any old dress feel completely new by layering a cute cardigan over it.
Shop the look:
8. Tied Button-Down + Denim Bermuda Shorts
Yes, it is that simple.
