One category I hardly ever cover on The Dainty Details is night out looks. Personally, this is the hardest occasion for me to dress for! As a 23-year-old, my friends and I go out semi-regularly and every time we go out the number one question is: “What are you wearing?” Today I’m hoping to make that question a little easier the next time you’re going out. Whether you’re planning a girls’ night out or a date night, there’s one trend you should keep in mind: statement sleeves.
Statement Sleeves
You know that saying, “the higher the hair, the closer to God”? Well, I’m applying that concept to my sleeves! I am all about puff sleeves at the moment. A structurally interesting top really helps you stand out without trying too hard.
For this look, I paired a statement sleeve top with black jeans and my go-to pair of black heels. The outfit itself really is simple, but the statement sleeves really help make a, well, statement…
Polka Dot Prints
While on the topic of trends, we have to talk about another huge trend for spring: polka dots. Personally, I have always loved a good polka dot print for spring and summer. However, this year black and white polka dot prints specifically are stealing our hearts and Instagram feeds. I think a black and white polka dot print for a night out is fun and flirty, but not too sweet.
Head-turning Headbands
Lastly, we can’t talk about this outfit without mentioning the headband. Anyone else on a major headband kick? I cannot get enough! Headbands are such an easy way to elevate any outfit. For this outfit, I loved how the mint green headband stood out against the black and white palette. It really is so easy to turn a somewhat boring outfit into a showstopper with one key accessory. Plus, I think you all know how much I love mint green at the moment!
So, that’s it for today’s post. I hope this outfit gives you some inspiration for your next night out! I really loved how this look turned out and will definitely be wearing it out myself. Swapping the black jeans for black leather shorts would also be such a fun idea! Anyway, if you liked this look, leave a comment below.
