The Minimal, Effortless Style of Belly from The Summer I Turned Pretty

The Minimal, Effortless Style of Belly from The Summer I Turned Pretty

Belly Conklin, the breakout style icon of The Summer I Turned Pretty, has a fashion approach that resonates with anyone who loves minimal, understated beauty. Her aesthetic is all about clean silhouettes, soft natural makeup, and subtle touches that make her look effortless yet striking. Rather than relying on bold statement pieces or heavy contouring, Belly leans into her youthful glow, allowing her natural beauty to take center stage.

One of Belly’s key style choices is her less-is-more approach to jewelry and makeup. A light sweep of blush, barely-there mascara, and natural, glossy lips keep her look fresh and age-appropriate. For jewelry, she often opts for minimal pieces—simple hoops or delicate studs—that enhance rather than overpower. This combination gives her a signature laid-back, youthful elegance, making her a relatable style inspiration for many young women.

And while most viewers might debate her romantic choices (ahem, Jeremiah), few can argue with her 10/10 sense of style. Belly’s effortless looks perfectly reflect a confident woman who doesn’t need to over-accessorize to make an impression. Instead, she builds her aesthetic around simple, timeless pieces that pair with everything, day or night.
