One idea for today, another for tomorrow
Outfit of the Day
OOTD, short for “outfit of the day”, is the look you’re wearing today — and the habit of sharing it: a full-length photo, often in the mirror, that has become the quickest way to get inspired and to inspire others.
Here are outfit of the day ideas for women and men to copy as they are or with one piece swapped, a simple formula to build yours without thinking, and four tricks for a good photo.
How to put together your OOTD
Start from the bottom
Choose the trousers, skirt or dress first: they set the silhouette. Then a top that balances it (loose with fitted) and finally the shoes.
One base, one piece that changes
Have a formula that works for you — straight jeans, a white tee and sneakers — and change just one piece each day: a blazer, a striped shirt, a colorful sweater. It looks new without thinking.
Check the weather and the plan
Before getting dressed, check the day’s high and low and what you’ll be doing. If the temperature swings a lot, add a layer you can take off.
How to take a good OOTD photo
Natural light, facing it
Stand facing a window, not with your back to it. Daylight shows colors and fabrics best.
Full length, phone at chest height
Make sure the shoes are in the shot. With the phone slightly below your face, your legs don’t look shorter.
A clean background
A plain wall or a door. The outfit is the star: everything behind it takes something away.
A natural pose
One foot slightly forward, a hand in a pocket or holding your bag. Take several shots in a row and keep the good one.
