go to "going out" outfit

So, I am ashamed to admit that sometimes when people ask me to go out - I say no bc I have nothing to wear!

My cousin asked me to come out for drinks in SOHO, or a date night, or a dinner in the city -- and I have NO IDEA what to wear.

So, I want to buy 1-2 simple, nice outfits from head to toe that I can throw on and be ready to go!

I don't go out often (once a month?) so it doesn't matter if I repeat and I don't have to get a million things.

What would you get? Pants? a skirt? dress? What kind of shoes?

Thanks!

Re: go to "going out" outfit

In the summer, I usually wear a pair of dressy shorts & a nice top with strappy sandals. Very comfortable & versatile because you can dress the outfit up or down- depending on what jewelry you wear.

Re: go to "going out" outfit

I have a pair of going out jeans, a pair of heels, and then I got a couple dressy tops from forever 21 and I change them out, for the summer because it's hotter out I have a pair of black shorts that I also mix and match with the tops and wear a pair of wedges with. Or I have my go to dress from BCBG that I also wear. I say get a nice pair of jeans, and a dress and switch it up!

Re: go to "going out" outfit

I like to wear dressy shorts or a cute skirt in the summer. I find Express always has a nice selection of these.

Then for tops Forever 21 is cheap and you can get a few.

Top with some cute strappy sandals and you are good to go!

I have also gotten a lot of cute dresses from Forever 21 for going out in the summer Chat Icon

Skinny jeans or leggings with a flowy top. It's always a great combo and then you can dress it up or down with heels/flats and jewelry.

You're welcome! I actually got that one at Target (on the clearance rack a few years ago) but I also have a blue one from Joyce Leslie.
THey aren't the most fantastic quality but since I wear it so little they've lasted!

This sounds a lot like my go-to outfit!

I have a black wrap dress that, depending on the shoes and accessories, I can wear to a ton of different types of events.

I don't get out much myself lately, but I work in Soho and on Friday evenings I get out later- just when young people are starting to go out and I see most women wearing :
-shorts with heels and a cute top
-skinny jeans or regular boot cut jeans (dark blue/navy or black) with heels or flats and a cute top
-short summer dresses with wedge heels
-LOTS of Maxi dresses with dressy flip flops/sandals
