There is no such thing as effortless chic. If you are secretly harbouring the dream that some day you will be able to consistently, thoughtlessly reach in to your closet and pull out a super-chic ensemble, well, you are fighting a no-win battle with yourself.
The most stylish people I know have spent lifetimes searching for what complements their body shape, their professional and personal lifestyle, local climate and how much they can reasonably budget for this pursuit.
Let me stress that this is not about how much money they have, but how attuned they are to their reality. It's an almost zen-like sense of self-awareness.
They don't obsess daily about what they wear but they all tend to be cautious shoppers. they make the tough decisions in the dressing room, not their closet. It stands to reason that if you only fill your closet with what works then just grabbing things from that closet will be a million times easier... hence the perception of "effortlessness".
