Have you ever wondered what to wear when going from day to evening?
Its also a stealthy figure-flattery trick.
When dressing tonally, just remember to put the darker clothing item where you want to minimize your proportions.
If you are going out straight from work or a daytime meeting, stick to neutral colors.
One crucial styling tip: Use textural contrasts and shine to enliven your outfit.
If yoursweateris textured (such as an open-weave or a shaker-knit), that adds to the visual interest.
Your accessories are what make the outfit evening-appropriate.
For evening, a smaller bag, such as a clutch or wristlet, works beautifully.
Wristlets have the added advantage of allowing you to go hands-free while enjoying a cocktail or hors doeuvres.
Step up the glamour with dramatic jewelry.
Sparkly hoops, drop or chandelier earrings pair beautifully withturtlenecks.
With an open-neck or crewneck sweater, think statement necklace or pendant.
If your sweater has 3/4 or short sleeves a bold cuff bracelet is an excellent choice.
Feel free to add a little glitz to the mix, as in diamonds, cubic zirconia or rhinestones.
Any of these combinations work with black.
Here are some examples of easy evening outfits:
