Choosing Accessories for a Big Night Out

The season of spring can bring new beginnings. Prom and wedding season is upon us, which means that people are getting ready for a night on the town. With prom, students are celebrating an end to their high school journey and beginning their entrance into adulthood. With weddings, the loving couple is starting their lives together as a family. These events are big milestones, which means that there are a lot of parties. After spending most of your time on an outfit, you can’t forget the accessories that go along with it. Here’s a guide to help you accessorize for your big night.

Wristlet or Cutch Evening Bag

For a night on the town, every woman needs a little something to carry her phone, lipstick and a little cash. A small wristlet or clutch is perfect for special occasions and is an easy way to add a little extra something to emphasize your outfit. Keep in mind that the practice of matching your shoes and purse can be tacky. You can stick to similar colors, but stay clear of sets.

The clutch above is absolutely beautiful but I bet the photo doesn’t do it justice. It’s silver-plated and would look amazing paired with heels and a little black dress. Something like this would never go out of style, making it a classic that would last for years to come.

Shawl

No evening is complete without a shawl of some sort. It’s the perfect way to add a touch of color, especially if you’re someone who tends to wear black. There are many colors, designs, and fabrics to choose from, and it can help complete an outfit. It’s a great way to cover your bare shoulders, without having to lug around a coat.

Necklace

When you’re wearing a strapless dress or one with spaghetti straps, a necklace is a must-have. It’s the perfect opportunity to feature something more daring, glamorous, and eye catching. A basic black dress is the perfect canvas for a statement necklace. For a dress with sleeves, you might want to stick to something more simple or with a chunky pendant.

Statement Earrings

Every woman needs earrings of some sort when getting dressed up. If you’re going with a statement necklace, you may want to stick to classic stud earrings.  If you’re going with simpler neck-wear, this is the perfect opportunity to choose a pair of earrings that really stand out.

Cocktail Ring

No matter what you wear, you can’t go wrong with finishing the outfit with a cocktail ring. For special occasions, it’s a great way of adding a little extra sparkle and shine. The ring in the photo below is simple, yet elegant. The focus is on the beautiful amethyst, which would be sure to capture the light.
