Here’s how you copy Seo Ye-ji’s style in It’s Okay to Not be Okay

We show you how you can recreate her best looks for work

Seo Ye jin It's Okay not to be Okay netflix korean drama

We just can’t seem to get enough Korean dramas, and Netflix has been delivering. The streaming giant has been releasing tons of K-dramas this year, such as The King: Eternal Monarch and, more recently, It’s Okay to Not be Okay, which stars Kim Soo-hyun and Seo Ye-ji.

The 30-year-old actress plays Ko Mun-yeong, a successful children’s book author who’s never fallen in love until she meets community health worker Moon Kang-tae (played by Kim Soo-hyun). We might be going gaga over the intimate romance moments (who doesn’t love a good love story?), but what we’re really obsessed with are Ye-ji’s fashionable on-screen looks. 

Here, five fabulous ways to recreate her style to get that Korean celeb look for work.

Here’s how you copy Seo Ye-ji's style in It's Okay to Not be Okay
1. The bold number

In the pilot, she’s seen in a brightly printed number with gold heels. Yes, it is a tad more appropriate for night than day, but all you need to do is throw on a smart blazer for work. After hours, simply remove the jacket – and you’re ready to head for drinks with your best girlfriends.

2. The classic black blazer – with a twist

Instead of the usual black blazer, a black blazer-dress gives this look a refreshing update, as seen on Ye-ji in Episode 2. Pair with black and gold accessories for extra gravitas.

3. The power of a belt

The right belt can take your dress from just fine to extra fabulous. In Episode 3, Ye-ji accentuates her waist with a brown corset belt that aces that #girlboss look.

4. The white dress

You can’t go wrong with a white dress: It’s classy, ethereal and feminine – Ye-ji’s version in Episode 4 says it all. Neutral accessories go best with this look.

5. The coordinates

Feminine and classy, matching pink coords are a definite “yes”, as seen on Ye-ji in Episode 6. She wore a cropped jacket with a long skirt and matched it with white and pastel accessories. For a sassier approach, go with a pantsuit instead.
