Unlike celebrities who have the time and luxury to make multiple
outfit changes in a day, we normal women have too much on our plate. Sometimes we have been in situations where we attempt to make a mad dash home just so we can change from our day or office attire into something more cocktail-ready.Clever? Sure. Practical? No
The trick is to start the day in a look that can easily transition to night time/ party scene - a pair of heels and a glitzy clutch can go a long way. You should also bear in mind that "evening" doesn't necessarily translate to "formal." Instead, the operative word should be "polished." Strive for that, and your friends will be none the wiser.
Nab
the librarian chic look without looking dowdy by choosing covered-up
yet fitted pieces. A ladylike handbag is classy and feminine, while
velvet booties are subtly sexy.
Basic
black trousers are easily a wardrobe essential. Make yours
nighttime-ready by pairing them with a gold leaf-print top and sexy
open-toed stilettos.
A
long-sleeved blouse tucked into a skirt is nothing original, but the
skirt's bright yellow shade adds a little shock factor. The dalmatian-print booties give a quirky feel.
So easy to love this electro-pleated dress Paired with tasseled
loafers and a vintage-style bag, it works just as well for dinner with
friends as it does for morning errands.
Black
is one color we will never, ever tire of. Punch up a predominantly
black outfit with hot pink trousers; eye-catching but sleek, thanks to
their tailored fit.
Menswear
on a woman is so sexy and unexpected. Be well-suited for a meeting with
the bosses in this trouser-and-blazer combo. What makes this look
interesting is the metallic shade of the pants and the studs on the
ankle boot.
There's
something about simple, minimalist pieces that screams woman on top . Play up dominatrix tendencies with sky-high heels.
Echo the polka dot theme with studded brogues.
Red
and brown may seem like they don't go together, but they actually
do Tough-looking heeled boots mesh well with the dress's embellished
shoulder detail.
Trousers
this detailed and colorful call for paler hues that won't compete with
the floral pattern, a pale collared blouse and a cream clutch come to
mind. Velvet platforms in the same color family complete the look.
An
animal print dress may not exactly seem like a good daytime choice, but
this dress's quirky color and full silhouette actually tones down the
wild pattern. Cover up with a cropped tuxedo jacket.
You
can never go wrong when pairing red with black. The blouse gives enough
coverage so you can go for something shorter, like these leather
trimmed shorts. Go
for glittery brogues and show off your animal-instinct with a zebra
print clutch.
An
explosion of color may be difficult to stomach, but if you're daring
enough, this outfit stands out in a very stylish way. The colors of the pants and accessories actually feature in the
top; keep that in mind when playing with hues.
Prim
and proper styles always, always win because they
will never fail you when you want to look polished. A lace skirt adds
interest to a sweet sweater, while a neat satchel and platform loafers
complete the mad men-style secretary look.
Clean,
simple pieces are great when doing the day-to-night thing. A fuss-free
blouse and sleek pants can take you through just about anything, while
animal print loafers are a classic choice.
A
prairie-style blouse and a flowing skirt give off a kooky look.
Weigh down the floaty pieces with heavy wooden platforms.
A
little youthful addition to a grown-up outfit is always welcome since
it keeps things from looking too severe. A pencil skirt and a white
button-down is a fool-proof pairing, but look closely, and you'll see
that the skirt is actually printed!
