How to Master the Laidback Cool Girl Aesthetic: Valentine’s Day Edition

Author: Rhea Malve

Whether you're spending Valentine’s Day with your significant other or vibing out with your besties, you want an outfit that’s effortless but also looks cool. Who even has time for over-the-top looks? If your vibe is a laidback, cool girl, we’ve got just the inspiration you need. Think streetwear; trendy jewellery, and layering accessories that will elevate basics, all while being sustainable
One Less has some of the best quality, sustainable, eco-friendly pieces that pair perfectly with just about, anything. Without further ado, here's a guide on how you can dress up your One Less this Valentine's Day.

Sophisticated & Effortless

For a timeless yet chic look, pair your sustainable One Less white tank top with your favourite denim or trousers and an oversized jacket or shirt for layering. Add a beautiful pair of Mary Jane shoes and a structured handbag for that effortless sophistication. Perfect for a coffee date or a walk in the park. A great option for your footwear is this pair from Theater xyz, and this box bag from Aulive.

Cool & Vibrant

Go for a monochrome base with our eco-friendly black Tencel tank top and black organic cotton shorts, then add a pop of colour with some vibrant shoes. Gully Labs is a great place to find eclectic shoes that make a bold statement. Accessorize with beaded bracelets, and finish the look with a One Less bucket hat of your choice; we have so many to choose from. Our favourite is the Raffia hat, now customisable with your initials and more. It's the perfect addition for a playful, casual vibe this Valentine’s Day.

Casual & Sporty

One Less offers a wide range of sustainable graphic tees that pair perfectly with our organic cotton shorts, which might I add, are known to be super comfortable. Also, consider spicing up the look with a large tote bag. Our One Less x Akiiko tote bags are not only cute but also functional with multiple pockets and compartments. Don’t forget to add fun sunnies, for that effortlessly cool, sporty look. Coco Leni has some fun options

Comfy & Quiet Luxe

In case, you and your partner are indulging in some outdoor shenanigans, or if you're simply aiming for those quiet luxury vibes, this outfit idea is perfect for you. Layer one of our eco-friendly cozy organic cotton hoodies under a sophisticated long coat, and pair it with any of our organic cotton sweat pants. This look gives off that effortlessly edgy, "I didn’t put much thought into this, but somehow I still look cool" vibe. Finish with a colour-block scarf, it’s everywhere this season and the perfect touch to add a pop of colour to your neutral, laid-back look. This is what will truly elevate your whole outfit.

Minimal & Edgy

For a minimalist look with a bit of edge, pair our Tencel tank top with organic cotton sweat pants and accessorise with statement rings, beaded bracelets, and a **One Less Raffia tote bag.** Did we mention that the Raffia tote bags are also customisable? Well, custom is the way to go for 2025, and even Vogue agrees. Perfect for a chill dinner or a sunset hangout. You can keep it low-key for a clean, minimal vibe or go all out with heavy accessories to give it that dressed-up streetwear feel.
Wild Child Jewels make some of the best rings; whether you’re into chunky statement pieces or simple, elegant designs. As mentioned above, Studio Love Letter offers a great variety of colourful beaded bracelets. And, of course, you can’t go wrong with a One Less bucket hat, available in a range of colours to match the vibe of your fit.
