This is the essential accessory:in the evening, there is no question of rushing your make-up! To wear your little black dress as an evening dress, a simple, well-applied smoky look is sometimes enough:the dark mist on your eyes contrasts with the sobriety of your dress, the effect is guaranteed. Plan B? A beautiful colored lipstick, deep red, orange coral or fuchsia pink. If you're going to dance, opt for a long-lasting, smudge-proof lipstick… unless you're touching it up all evening and drinking from a straw! Be careful, however, to choose a camp for your dress:the smoky accented with a colored lipstick is generally too marked. Highlight your eyes or your mouth, not both.
As for an evening dress for the afterwork, you just need to choose the right accessories for your little black dress. Replace the high heels at the office with a pair of colorful ballet flats, untie your hair, apply a more sustained layer of makeup... and leave your bag at the office, to prefer a trendy clutch kept in a desk drawer!
For a romantic dinner, replace the jacket with a sexy shawl that slips over the shoulders, and put on your most beautiful pumps to brighten up your little black dress. As for jewellery, prefer dangling earrings that quiver with each movement, and a long necklace or pendant that touches the neckline... without forgetting to carefully choose the lingerie under the dress!
A party with friends? Accompany your little black dress with a long, straight jacket, fancy tights and trendy boots. If necessary, plan a large bag to leave in the guest room, with a vest and spare ballerinas... You never know where the party dress can lead!
The evening promises to stir:tonight, you and your evening dress are attending a concert. Forget the elegant little black dress, reinvent it in comfortable sexy! A pair of high-top sneakers, black leggings and a chunky hip-hop cardigan… with a beanie for the finishing touch. A rock concert? Dare opaque tights in biker boots with the little black dress, put on a perfecto and a shoulder bag. Is it an opera? Quick, pumps, satin tights and a long necklace!
How about going dancing? Play with sequins, veils and lace to accompany your evening dress and its heeled sandals! Beware, on the other hand, of long and dangling jewels which jump with each movement. Also choose a small shoulder bag, rather than a handbag, to move freely.
