Making a simple dress work for both day and night can sometimes seem like a challenge, but it’s all in the way you accessorize and style it. Remember Carrie’s wedding dress in the first Sex and the City movie? The ”dress by no one” as Charlotte’s friend Anthony dubbed it… It was as simple as a wedding dress can get, but Carrie’s solution was merchandising and accessorizing with shoes and jewelry…
Here are some tips on how to make a day dress work for an evening event… Take this striped dress, for instance…

SHOES: Shoes play a big part of the outfit: A pair of heels will exude elegance, sexiness, sophistication and femininity. If you usually wear flats, wearing a pair of high heels will send a message of being ‘dressed up’…
JEWELRY: In the evenings it’s okay to be more shiny and especially if you’re wearing a simple dress. Choose a pair of bigger earrings or a necklace that sparkles, or as in this case lots of silver and gold bracelets.
BELT: Putting a shiny belt over you simple dress will instantly make a difference. Your waist will be accentuated making the dress sexier and you will look more feminine.
BEAUTY: Beauty is the easiest one to go about… Red lips will always make any outfit more glamorous.. If you’re not into the daring red lips, go for a smokey eye make-up and a little extra lip gloss on your lips. A shinier shade of blush in the evening will make your face glow more…
HANDBAG: Go with a clutch instead of an across body bag. A clutch is more festive and elegant – perfect for an evening out!
How do you dress up your day look?
I usually go for a little more make-up in the evening and some shinier accessories, as high heels are always on my feet!
