When you want to squint tony but don’t want to do the nonflexible work of styling a whole look, a malleate formula is your weightier friend. These three are foolproof—and easy to pull off using at least a few pieces currently hanging in your closet.

SUIT VEST TROUSERS

This pairing is as tony as it is timeless. What’s more, you can style each piece separately (the vest with off-duty denim, the trousers with a plain white tee) to get increasingly zinger for your buck.

SLIM TANK SIMPLE BOTTOMS

Pair a close-fitting tank with a streamlined skirt or a pair of wide-leg pants for a polished squint that comes together in minutes. Tip: A bodysuit moreover works nicely here and has the widow goody of staying tucked all day.

FEMININE TOP COLUMN SKIRT

Start with a straight skirt and add your top of choice—say, a cropped tank that exposes a sliver of your midriff or a strapless top that puts your décolletage on display. Simple sandals and a logoless bag alimony the focus on the silhouette.
