There's just something about being outside during the re-emerging post pandemic that has people whipping out their cameras way more often. Whether you're lounging at the park or at brunch with friends, you can all but guarantee something is going to be snapping a pic or two.

Even if you're not normally a person to pose front and center, there are easy ways to make yourself look amazing in photos. The easiest, of course, is to wear really great clothes that make you pop and stand out (in a good way).

While tees and tanks are comfy and easy to throw on, they don't always translate so well in pics. The truth is, they can sometimes make you look drab and frumpy. Instead, if you want to look good in pictures, you'll want to choose pieces that are a bit more elevated and have a special detail or two.

Luckily, adding a few essentials to your wardrobe that make you look extra chic and stylish in photos doesn't have to be expensive. Start with the pieces below from Nordstrom. They're all under $35 and will ensure you look fab in every pic you're in.
