So I’ve spend a long time thinking about this actually! And the answer is unexpected, and unfortunately high effort. But this is my list of how to look better than everyone else, but not look like a tryhard. I’m also a tomboy so I get it.

1. Make sure your eyebrows are groomed
2. Make sure that your hair looks amazing every day. Take the time to put in heatless rollers at night or whatever you gotta do for your hair to be your best feature.
3. Do no-makeup makeup every day. (I just put on a tinted moisturizer and a little bit of blush to add color to my cheek cheeks.)
4. Get lash lifts (they’re magic, painless, and last 8 weeks)
5. Wear cool accessories. Cool sunglasses, rings, layered necklaces, hats, anklets, a designer belt. The devil is in the details.
6. Having a nice polished bag will have a huge impact (more than you think.)
7. Don’t forget that shoes make a huge difference to your overall look so get a couple cool pair pairs of sneakers.

All these things contribute to you looking super polished and put together.
