LIé STUDIO'S CECILIE MOOSGAARD NIELSEN ON HOW SHE ELEVATES JEANS & A T-SHIRT
Few feelings ignite more panic than running behind because you don’t know what to wear. File away some fail-safe outfit ideas to fall back on with TZR’s Fashionably Late series, where we tap our favorite tastemakers for the looks they reach for in a rush — and, naturally, the exact products you need to follow suit.
The thing about wearing jeans and a T-shirt together is that while, sure, the pieces themselves are supremely basic but, how you wear them doesn’t have to be. This is something Lié Studio co-founder and creative director Cecilie Moosgaard Nielsen fully understands. She starts nearly every day with some version of the simple combination, and uses layers and striking pieces from her jewelry brand to make the formula feel unique.
“I want getting dressed to be easy; it shouldn’t be something you stress about in the morning,” Moosgaard Nielsen tells TZR, noting vintage Levi’s, blazers, and sleek earrings as some of her staples. “I think every piece in your wardrobe should be a fallback outfit.” The way she views it, it’s always better to repeat a combination that makes you feel like the very best version of you versus chasing an entirely new aesthetic every day. “I don’t think people should be afraid to rewear things over and over again or feel like they have to do more. I think people look their best when they’re confident in their outfit.”
It’s easy to see why Moosgaard Nielsen is self-assured in her wardrobe choices. As documented in her breezy girl-about-town Instagram feed, her looks rely on thoughtfully chosen classics (a beautifully draped trench, denim that slouches in all the right places) styled together in a way that wears like a second, and very elegant, skin.
Channel the creative’s vibe with her selections below — as well as a few TZR-vetted picks — all easy and effortless enough to wear with anything you already own.
Alanis Trench Coat
“I think a good trench is a staple that everyone should have in their closet — it’s something that’s so easy to wear.”
Selena Single Breasted Collarless Blazer
“A fitted blazer is my go-to when going out for dinner or when I’m in our showroom doing market [appointments]. It’s easy because it can make an entire outfit, and this one from TOVE has the perfect tight fit.”
White Pima Boxy Crew
The cut of your white tee can make or break your outfit. Try this fit, which lightly hugs all the right places and hit right above the waistband so you needn’t deal with tucking or a belt.
501 '90s Women's Lightweight Jeans
On days when getting dressed feels extra hard, this sleek and timeless straight-leg cut won’t steer you wrong.
The Camille Earrings
“These classic earrings always stand out, and make you look chic instantly.”
The Sofie Ring
“I love a statement ring. I’ve never been one to stack, but I’m always wearing a ring on my pointy finger. I think our Sofie ring is perfect for it.”
Delfina Suede Ballet Flats
“The moment it becomes spring I’m back in my ballet flats, and they are the perfect match to my denim jeans.”
