Pairing different clothing aesthetics together creates dynamic and visually interesting outfits.
Opposing styles, like feminine and masculine or sleek and rugged, create contrast that draws attentions and adds depth to your look.
No one does this better than a celebrity with a professional stylist on their payroll.
Do you have a closet full of nothing to wear? Just turn to Taylor Swift, Bella Hadid and Sofia Richie and more for outfit inspiration.

Bella Hadid was spotted in Midtown Manhattan looking city chic with western touches
Ever since hooking up with cutting horse rider, Adan Banuelos, Bella Hadid has unleashed the cowgirl within.
From leather corsets to chaps and cowboy hats – she’s had western fashions inspired by her boo on rotation.
But, you know what they say: You can take the supermodel out of the city, but you can’t take the supermodel out of the girl.
Bella was spotted in Midtown Manhattan, carrying a Valentino Garavani Nellcôte suede shoulder bag and black cowboy boots.
But instead of pairing the cowgirl essentials with western fashions, she teamed them with a sexy, cleavage-baring bodysuit and sleek tan pants.
