Ready? Let’s get to it.

What is Romantic Style Fashion?

The romantic style in fashion has very soft, feminine features. This style enjoys delicate fabrics like laces and silks as well as types of velvet. You will also often see the romantic style woman wearing embellishments. There is a sweet, innocent aire about this look.

Why are the Romantic Style Essentials Important?

With only these 11 pieces, you can create over 70 outfits! Not only that, but when you combine them with the items you already have in your closet, the possibilities are endless! These 11 staples will set the tone for your outfit.

What are the Effortless Eleven Essentials for the Romantic Style?

Peep-toe wedges with ankle strap
Victorian ankle boots
Pleated shorts
Lace Skirt
Floral wrap dress
Ruffled top
Puff-sleeve blouse
Tweed tulip hem jacket
Embellished cardigan
Laser cutout bag

Ruffled Coat

First, find a coat with a ultra feminine detail like ruffles. It can be a lighter weight trench or a heavier wool coat. A fit and flare is a good choice for a silhouette for your coat, but even if the cut of your coat is straighter, make sure it at least has a belt so that you don’t lose your waist.

Peep-toe Wedges with Ankle Strap

Second, you’ll want to get your hands on these peep-toe wedges. The thing I really love about them is the narrow ankle strap and the dainty lace on the shoes. The whole appearance of the shoe is light and feminine. The wedge lengthens the legs, but the shoes are still as easy to walk in as flats due to the surface area of the sole. Are you going to a party? Wedding? Brunch? Look no further, because these are perfect. I’m thinking about getting a pair of these for myself, and I’m not even the romantic type!

Victorian Ankle Boots

Thirdly, get some slender (not chunky) ankle boots. I recommend these victorian inspired ankle boots. You can wear them with just about anything except maybe your swimsuit.

Pleated Shorts

Next, get some wide-leg pleated shorts. Look for ones that almost look like a skirt. A high waist with a belt or a tie. They can have a sleek waist or have gathers like a paper-bag waist.

Lace Skirt

Fifth on the list is the lace skirt. No romantic wardrobe is complete without one. This is a fun piece that is easy to dress up or dress down. Wear it with a sequin top to a semi-formal event or wear it around town paired with a tee and your sneakers.

Floral Wrap Dress

Number six on the list is the most iconic item you can find of romantic style clothing. It’s the floral wrap dress. Chances are, if you have romantic style, you don’t have just one of these and they are the most favored items in your closet. Wearing one just feels like your second nature. You love to wear them with your grandmother’s pearls and your heels.

Ruffled Top

Next, be sure you have a ruffled top. Ruffles are your jam, right? This are the easiest piece to bring the soft, romantic look to even your most rugged pair of jeans. Such is the magic of these effortless eleven pieces. They effortlessly bring any outfit into the romantic arena even though they wouldn’t inherently be romantic on their own.

Puff-sleeve Blouse

Then you’ll want to get a puff-sleeve blouse. There are a couple of options. Snag a t-shirt style one or one of woven fabric. The woven fabric may be less comfortable, but it has a more dressy look.

Tweed Tulip Hem Jacket

Number nine on the list is the tweed tulip hem jacket. “What is a tulip hem?”, you might ask. A tulip hem is a curved hem. You could get a tweed jacket with a straight hem, but it wouldn’t have the soft look of the tulip hem and has the capability of looking more manish instead of feminine.

Embellished Cardigan

Number ten is an embellished cardigan. Romantic types look for delicate embellishments as opposed to heavy, ornate ones. These beaded cardis would be a great addition to your wardrobe. For a shoulder widening look, this cardigan with looping pearl strands might strike your fancy. Either one will be the perfect outfit completer piece.

Laser Cutout Bag

Last, but not least is a bag with a delicate lace look cutout design. You can find them not only in shoulder bag sizes, but in clutch sizes as well. I’d recommend getting one that is the right size for you to carry every day.
