Spice Up Your Going Out Clothes

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Emory chapter.

Do you find yourself wearing the same black bandage skirt out for the third or fourth weekend in a row? Don’t stress—follow these three ideas to mix up your going out clothes.
 
Know the impact of a great shoe.
Shoes either make or break the outfit. Make sure yours always add some flair to your going out basics! If bright, bold clothing isn’t your style, then go for a pop of color with your shoes. Color-blocking is a very easy trend to try when paired with other neutral pieces. For the adventurous fashionistas, cheetah printed heels or booties would be a great new print to incorporate into your already massive shoe collection. For those who want to make an edgier statement, spikes and studs spice up any pair of shoes and won’t overpower a statement piece.

 
Statement necklaces are power pieces.
Keep reaching for pieces in black, white or grey? Pump up those basics with a bold and chunky necklace to make your outfit pop! Statement necklaces come in many different forms such as the bib collar shape and chunky gemstone or geometric styles. One awesome style combines rhinestones with bright neon colors. Statement necklaces exude sass, and every Collegiette™ needs at least one…or five.

 
Add a bit of sparkle!
Nothing catches peoples’ (and the camera’s) eyes more than shiny sequins. Invest in a pair of sequined shorts in black or gold, and they’ll last through the winter season. Add a pair of tights or leggings underneath and you’re good to go.

 
Follow these three ideas and you will be receiving compliments all night on your fabulous outfit!
