Holiday Outfits And Evening Bags. How To Match?
When you have already decided what outfit you will wear for the upcoming special event, you need to make sure that your ensemble is complete. But how? An evening bag, of course! It is a must! An evening bag is a great accessory that is a necessity for any outfit, so you should pay special attention when making your choice. Picking out the right evening bag for your outfit can be tricky. There are so many options available, it can be hard to know where to start.
Here are some recommendations to help you with that:
1. The simpler the cut of your dress is, the more elegant or fancy and embellished the evening bag can be, and vice versa - the more elaborate the dress is, the plainer the evening bag should be.
2. An envelope clutch, a flapover clutch or minaudiere go better with a fitted or semi-fitted outfit, and a pouch is best with full skirts and full skirt dresses made of soft fabrics that drape.
3. A patent leather clutch will look great with a cocktail or long evening gown at a gala event.
4. Silver or gold evening bags always go with an evening outfit of any color.
5. One more tip: wear the right nail polish.
For example, if an evening bag is a solid neutral or dark color, then the nail polish can be bright or dark: burgundy, chocolate, fuchsia, coral, red, etc.
If an evening bag is bright and/or lavishly decorated, then your nail polish should be neutral.
And of course, always remember that looking your best and being the best-dressed lady in the room is possible only when all colors, color combinations, lines, sizes, shapes, etc. are in accordance with your Beauty Code.
