It Couples’ Style Guide To Power Dressing
It takes a lot to become an It couple these days. Hollywood's oversaturated with near-perfect specimens of human, so there's got to be something that makes the duo stand out style-wise. They've got to have something you can't put your finger on.
From Queen Bey and Jay, to Miley and Liam and Mila and Ashton, we did our best to pinpoint what that 'something' is, and how you and your S.O. can achieve similar levels of It couple-dom. Here's how to power dress like the pros.
***
If in doubt, wear black. Maybs some sparkle… Yep. Wear black and some sparkle like Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively.
Dress age-appropriate. Just because you're the hot young couple amongst your friends doesn't mean you have to assert just how young and fun you are to the rest of the world. Be cool like Zayn Malik and Gigi Hadid.
If in doubt, upgrade. Do as Beyoncé and Jay Z do and err on the side of polished. The duo do black tie like nobody else.
Know when to shine, and when to let your partner shine. Sometimes there’s only room for one style star. Ain’t that right, Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth?
Flaunt your assets. Behati Prinsloo and Adam Levine know what designs make them look gooood. Gotta keep that spark alive, y'know?
A lil' quirk never hurt nobody. Life lessons from Leandra Medine Cohen + Abie Cohen.
Stay true to your aesthetic but sympathetic to theirs. Gwen Stefani’s more out-there performer glam may theoretically jar with BF Blake Shelton’s casual country style, but their compatible colour palette unifies their outfits.
It's okay to dress casz, even if your partner typically sees you slightly dressed up *cough, Olivia Palermo and Johannes Huebl, cough*. You'll automatically bring a refinement to your athleisure anyway.
When you look good, take a picture. It’ll last longer. How else is everyone to know you’re like #couplegoals Emily Blunt and John Krasinski?
And finally, laugh at yourself if you wind up wearing near identical outfits à la Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher.
