How to look stylish for guys without trying too hard

Lately, every time guys (usually celebs) are asked what they think a girl looks best in, they respond by saying something like "Girls look best when they aren't trying (e.g.: sweats, t-shirts, just comfy jeans). What makes a girl look good is her personality."

Most of us girls/women admire other women who really look put together - chic and sexy. We'd never dream of wearing just a t-shirt and sweats on a daily basis. With celebrities influencing society more and more, everyone seams to be stepping their look up a notch.

So, how do you look stylish yet still look as like you're not trying too hard? (Like a "guys girl".)


I think when a guy says something along the lines of "a girl who looks like she isn't trying", he means little make up and no heels. Low maintenance.

Guys like a girl who can wear flats and look casual whenever necessary- but when the ocassion arises she can look hot too. No guy wants to date someone who looks overly done up and sticks out like a sore thumb. It helps to know before hand where you're going. Plus you want to dress comfy so you can feel and act more relaxed.

I've put together and chosen some outfits on Polyvore of some outfits you could wear to get the look:


Edgy look:

featuring Seven For All Mankind jeans

If you want an even more casual look, you can switch the heels up with some flat sandals with a t-strap and lose the blazer.

Flirty/feminine look:

featuring Converse shoes

Bohemian sexy look:

This is currently one of the easiest looks and my favorite for school! Everything (specially the cardi) makes it look very loose and casual, but the fitted tank and skinny jeans make it look feminine.


And of course, with all these looks, keep your make up simple. A smokey eye is fine for night time, but for daytime keep your make up simple with nude-ish lips and go light on the blush.

 

Kate Perry Gives Dating Advice For Playerettes

We love her style, and obviously her songs. "I kissed a girl" has been blasting on radio's and mp3 players all over the world. The somewhat controversial singer has a wardrobe all vintage lovers would die for.. so of course we want to know more about her haha, even if it involves advice about being a "playerette".

Katy Perry talks to Blender Mag on “How to Date 4 Guys at Once.”

1. HAVE A BOY IN EVERY PORT
“As a sophisticated woman, you should have business in both Los Angeles and New York, and summer in Paris. You can’t just take an L.A. guy to Paris and expect him to know what the 6th arrondissement is. He would just take you directly to the Eiffel Tower with the rest of the tourists.”

2. STICK TO A TIGHT SCHEDULE
“Guys like to surprise you. Girls don’t like surprises. Which is why a precise calendar is important if you’re going to be an international player. You’ll need it color-coded. If you do get surprised, just let the other one out the back door. Always have a back door. And a laundry chute!”

3. KEEP YOUR PICS RATED P.G.“Be particular about how you pose for photos, because the suggestive ones end up being tagged on Facebook. Trouble! We live in a world where you wake up and your whole diary from last night is on the Internet. You don’t even have to be a celebrity. You are your own paparazzi!”

4. DO NOT GIVE HIM A DRESSER DRAWER“They can never leave their stuff! I was bringing back the things an old boyfriend left at my house, and I accidentally returned something that wasn’t his. He saw it, and he’s like, ‘This isn’t mine!’ And it’s like, ‘Well, it certainly could have been. I mean, you all wear Fruit of the fucking Loom!’”
