Lancy Zhang has the kind of effortless cool-girl style that everybody wants. Plus, she makes it look so easy! And when you actually break down her chic looks, they’re really not that hard to replicate.

For example, this oversized sweater goes from casual to so cool when paired with some rolled-up cargo pants, knitted sneakers and a designer fanny pack. Have you ever considered tucking in your sweaters? No? Well, hopefully Lancy can convince you to give it a try!

@Debra_Jenn

Debra Jenn‘s beachy L.A. style is absolutely to die for. If there’s one thing you should definitely steal, it’s her love of accessorizing! Take a simple look to the next level with a few gorgeous statement pieces, like this unique bag.

Even a basic tee and jeans don’t have to be boring if you add a little texture — like Debra did with this pink furry jacket. Goodbye, boring traditional peacoat!

@Im_lola__

Lola is another pro at making a laid-back look still feel special. Spice up your tees and show off your figure by tying them in the front, and try adding modern heels to relaxed outfits to make them shine.

Wanna take it another level? Try pairing a graphic tee with a colorful long skirt. This look may be comfy, but it screams young professional!

@Janeebarbre

J Barb can take your grunge vibe into a new era! Here, she mixes feminine details like her dress and purse with more masculine sneakers and a boxy denim jacket, and the results are edgy and sporty!

An important tip: if you’re going to play with volume, stick to one piece and keep the rest sleek. J Barb does that perfectly here by pairing some skinny jeans and leg-lengthening boots with a cool, voluminous pink top.

@Sweetemelynes

Emelyne is the queen of transitional looks. Only she could take this tee from the park to the club! The satin skirt really elevates the regular cotton top, making the whole look feel more upscale.

For the ultra-femme girl, this flowy top looks more casual (and campus-appropriate) thanks to the ripped denim skirt. Playing with soft and hard elements will always be on-trend!

@Sofia.mnn

Another way to wear your graphic tees into the school year comes from Sofia Hernandez, who found a way to wear an oversized tee and show off her waistline simultaneously by tucking it into a trendy lace-up skirt.

And her hack for making your fave spaghetti strap dress classroom-appropriate is genius: simply pair it with a chic turtleneck top!

@Vavaglam_

If you want to look effortlessly put-together, take a note from Vanessa‘s book and go matchy-matchy with your accessories.

Or take it a step further and go matchy-matchy with your whole outfit! We love this white top and shorts set, especially with the denim jacket on top.

@Magicallymads

Madison is all about that #DisneyLife, but her style works for everyone! Try cutting the bottom few inches off of your favorite big tee to rock it as a crop top. Also, we’re kind of obsessed with her adorable crunchie topknot.

We love that Madison combines things we wouldn’t think to pair together, like this slouchy tee and white jumper. We think it would be the perfect lunchroom lewk — Minnie ears optional!

@Geochaves

We see you girl! Geovanna Chaves isnt’ afraid to take style risks, and yet she makes them look so easy! Take, for example, this all-red ensemble complete with a red tee, red blazer, and red pants. But a look that could have been too uptight and stiff immediately feels more casual and sporty when mixed with stark white trainers and a gold bag, like Geo did here!

18 of 23

She’s the queen of using shoes to change the whole vibe of an outfit. Here she does the opposite by pairing a comfy jumpsuit with some yellow statement heels — immediately more chic!

@Missremiashten

No one does flirty and fabulous quite like Remi Cruz! We love how she rocked this adorable floral mini dress, and made it feel a bit more covered-up thanks to those high boots.

@The_kaplan_twins

Lexi and Allie Kaplan aren’t afraid to go bold with their looks — they are artists, after all! We love these retro tie-dye designs they rocked at BeautyCon 2019, and they felt so much more modern thanks to the slim cuts and complimenting bandeau tops.

@Priscillvv

If you’re not sure how to wear a silk top, Priscilla has the answer! Here, she wore a cute shirt open with a tank underneath, and made it look fresh and young by pairing it with jeans and strappy black heels.

@sandyyperez

Sandy Perez may be all about the makeup, but her wardrobe is equally as stunning! pairing this baby blue tee with this mustard jumper really made both colors pop, and she looks so cute and ready for fall in it!

@Alisha

Sometimes it’s best to keep things simple when you need to run to class early in the morning, but that doesn’t mean comfy can’t be cute! Alisha Marie nails that vibe with this scoop neck tank and ripped jeans. Spice up a basic look with dainty jewelry just like this style pro!
