From playing our favorite childhood hero to becoming a real life role model to look up to

Emma Watson’s fame is not just based on her work as actress or as the main spokeswoman of the UN campaign He for She. 

Her conscious use of ethical clothing brands and her beauty routines have turned her a fashion icon from whom we can get some inspiration.

When we’re in a fashion rut or when we just want to add some chic vibes into our look. 

The core of Emma’s fashion sense is that she doesn’t go for flamboyant or showy displays of expensive brands.

On the contrary, she proves simplicity is the key of elegance.

It is just a matter of knowing how to combine your pieces, as simple as they may be, or choosing a single statement piece to be the main focus of your look.

If you’re looking for some inspirations for your everyday outfits, whether it is to go to the coffee shop, class, or work, the following outfits Emma Watson has worn are sure to help. Check out these casual combinations she has come up with. The best part of all: any of us can try them with the basics we’ve got in our wardrobe.

1. Sweaters are your chill outfit’s BFFs

I’m a huge fan of sweaters, especially the bigger ones. They’re so cozy and warm, and wearing them adds a laid-back yet elegant vibe to your outfit. The only risk with this piece, however, is having sleeves that are so long you end up looking like a hipster version of Snow White’s Dopey. As you can see from Emma’s outfit, the key is making sure the piece you’re wearing is the right fit, so it looks like it was tailor-made. The best part of sweaters is that you can combine them with almost any other piece: jeans, long skirts, or leggings (in the case of big sweaters).

2. Show punk’s not dead

Emma knows how to bring out the rebellious side of her British soul and turn it into a chic combination. The key in making punk casual is having checkered patterns on the main piece of your outfit, whether it is a dress, a skirt, or pants. You can accessorize that piece with black heels for a more elegant touch, or boots and a faux leather jacket if you’re looking for comfort too. 

3. Rock faux leather

Whenever we talk about leather jackets, it’s most likely that we’ll think of bikers or punk outfits. However, these pieces have now become an essential piece in our wardrobe, not necessarily associated to underground groups. On the contrary, they can add a fashionable touch to simple combinations. As you can see from these two looks, you can choose the typical black leather jacket and heeled boots if you’re feeling like going for the all-black looks, or you can top a basic combination of jeans and white tee with a light brown jacket. But most importantly, go for faux leather. Remember Emma Watson’s fashion is also focused on being ethical, and of course that includes avoiding the unnecessary death of animals for the sake of fashion.

4. Accessorize like a pro

Have you ever felt so cold you don’t care about what you’re wearing as long as it keeps you warm? I guess most of us have been in that situation, especially in winter. However, Emma has shown us that if you know how to combine your accessories during those cold seasons, you won’t have to sacrifice your fashion sense for the sake of your comfort –and your overall health. Think of scarves, hats, coats, or gloves as accessories you can make stand out in a stylish way. For instance, you can create a contrast between a checkered coat and black outfit, or you can play with different tones of the same color in your hat, scarf, and coat. In this last case the key is creating a palette that’ll make you look like you’re on fire even in the coldest season.

5. Coat + beret = Killer combo

Emma Watson is known for the way she knows how to enhance the classiness of even the simplest combinations. This is mostly achieved through a wise selection of the accessories with which you’ll top your outfit. And there is no combination that shouts more oh là là like a chic coat and a beret. To do so, go for a color that enhances the rest of your outfit. In this case, the gray color and black beret highlight the black pants and white t-shirt and sneakers.

6. Bring back your trusted overall

Overalls are returning as basic pieces, so it’s no wonder we’d find Emma wearing them and slaying it. Again, simplicity is essential. A gaudy shirt or crop top might end up ruining the already chill vibe of your outfit while wearing an overall. So go for simple colors and designs. In this look, for example, a white blouse and a black overall, as simple as they may be, can add the comfort and sophistication you need in your everyday life. For these combos, you can wear sneakers or espadrille shoes.

So take your pick. What old favorite will you take out from the back of your closet to create a chic yet relaxed outfit?
