Mary J. Blige isn’t just wonderfully turned out, but she’s got the perfect taste in accessories and other bits and bobs. From a hair wrap with style to a pair of perfectly high towering heels, Mary has her look down. We can try it, too, with the right ingredients—let’s see what works best when we use Mary as our personal wardrobe assistant—even if it is from afar.

Tops with Cool Collars
Sexy shirts don’t always have to be cleavage-baring. Instead of finding a shirt that’s cut down to there, wear one that shows off toned arms and can be easily paired with a blazer or jacket.

Coat Tip: Mary J. Blige is partial to cropped styles in classic colors, with a body-conscious fit.

Super Dark Jeans with Fun Seaming
Mary definitely knows who to make her jeans look right, and what’s even better is her eclectic adaptation of a pair of ‘70s high-rise jeans. Dark jeans are the LBD of the trouser world: they are slimming, and when you pair them with some vertical seam details, you’ll look taller as well.

Belt It, Belt It, Belt It
There’s no easily way to define your waist than with a leather belt. It moves and flexes with your body and lasts for ages, and when worn with higher waisted jeans, your waist will look even smaller.

Tip: Have fuller hips like Mary? Get jeans with a little built-in give to allow for movement and to make your hips look proportional to your shape.

Sexy Silk Scarves and Headbands
Pull your hair back with a deep side part and then secure it with a scarf of your choice. Mary chose white as she performed on stage—it catches the eye, complements her hair and skin tone, and is a practical option when you’re in action. Look for ones in cream and white for a fun look that’s slightly retro.
