Crushing on some oversized pieces? Before giving you some tips on how to master this look, here’s a glimpse at what this trend is all about. The epitome of laidback style, this trend has made its way to our hearts, and will hopefully make its way to our wardrobes as well, once we make sure to know how to follow it the right way! With fashionistas going all in for everything that screams effortless and comfy without giving up on the style factor, it’s time to know how to pull off the oversized look without making any regrettable mistakes.

-Balance is key when it comes to going oversized. If you have curves, make sure to hide them with the oversized piece and balance the slimmer part of your body with a skinny one to highlight it.

-If you wish to go for a complete oversized look – top and bottom – mark your waist with a belt. Believe us, this will make a huge difference.

-Short ladies can also look wonderful in an oversized look, and the secret behind this is pulling it off with heels. While oversized pieces might give you a shorter appearance, heels can make it up for you in terms of length.

-For those of us who would like to stay on the safe side in a way or another, a great way to pull off this trend is by pairing a simple, oversized white tee and an oversized cardigan with a skinny jeans and chunky sneaks.

-Infuse some flair into your outfit by accessorizing. In fact, this is the secret behind the success of almost every outfit. So, why not go for an oversized clutch that you carry under your arm? But hey, don’t overdo it!

-Your jewelry is also a must to up your look. Think necklaces, bracelets, rings and earrings that complement your outfit without stealing its charm!

-Last but not least, there’s a difference between choosing an oversized piece and going a few sizes up. The first is definitely a better and safer choice because going a size or two up might go wrong – especially when it comes to pants!
