There are many different ways to seamlessly take your outfit from day to night, whether it’s a quick change of shoes or a slick of lipstick. Sometimes, there are occasions when a whole outfit change isn’t necessary, so a few simple additions or adjustments is all you need to take your outfit from day to night.
No matter if you work in an office and are heading out for after-work drinks with friends or are out exploring a new city and decide to go out for an impromptu dinner, all you need is a few versatile outfits which you can mix and match, swap and rotate to suit any occasion at the last minute.
Transitioning Your Outfit From Day To Night
Style is all about how you put different fashion pieces together in order to create your own personal look. Let’s take a look at 3 quick and easy tips for taking your outfit from day to night.
Invest In Wardrobe Staples
One of the easiest ways to create a collection of outfits which can be taken seamlessly from day to night is to invest in some wardrobe staples. You can make a night out dress more work-appropriate with the addition of black tights and a cardigan, but then with a few tweaks, you have a completely new outfit perfect for the evening. Switch pumps to heels for post-work drinks or add some statement earrings and a bright red lipstick for date night.
When it comes to creating a collection of wardrobe staple pieces, choose pieces that are well tailored and are in block colours, so that they can be paired and mixed together to create an outfit ready for any occasion. When it comes to womens fashion & clothing, you can go wrong with tailored, well-made pieces!
Choose Statement Accessories
You could have on the perfect office-suitable outfit for boardroom chic during the day, but switching up your accessories to ones which make more of a statement is a super quick and easy way to transform your outfit from day to night in a few seconds. Ditch your daytime tote for a colourful clutch or bold handbag instead, or swap out the studs for a dazzling pair of drop hoops. Just a quick switch of your accessories can sometimes be all you need to create a whole new look.
Refresh Your Makeup
If you don’t need to do a 30-second outfit transformation and have a bit more time on your hands, then refreshing your makeup is a great way to take your look from day to night, without changing anything about your outfit.
You won’t always have the time to re-do your entire face of makeup before your post-work plans, or if you’re on a tight time schedule, So, instead, add a spritz of rehydrating setting spray to add the glow back into your foundation, add a sweeping of blusher or highlighter to your cheekbones and put on your boldest lip colour for a super-quick refresh. Don’t forget a spray or two of perfume and you’re good to go!
