The Veronica Mars actress stresses the importance of dressing to suit one’s body type, noting how her 5’3″ stature affects clothing fit. She prefers form-fitting clothes, shorter skirts, and dresses, steering clear of knee-length items to maintain her shape.

Her wardrobe essentials include skinny jeans, booties, simple tops, and a blazer or jacket, predominantly in neutral colors for easy coordination.

“I really believe in great basics,” she stated, pointing to her love of minimalism. “If I want to put a little effort into [my outfit], I’m going to go for my favorite pair of skinny jeans…I’m going to do a great pair of booties, probably some sort of simple tank top or T-shirt, depending on what’s going on, and maybe just a great blazer or jacket,” she told E! News in 2018.

Her collaboration with Chinese Laundry has officially ended. The partnership began in 2012 and allowed Cavallari to design various fashionable yet affordable shoes. Since then, she has shifted her focus to her brand, Uncommon James, which includes footwear and accessories.

It’s very simple and classic but worth the look. The Liberta is smooth, sleek, neat, and sexy. We love its clean lines. It’s made of kid leather and comes in nude and silver glitter.
