Tips for an Effortless Evening Look

No time to change after work? Fashion designer Mariane Perez recommends wearing a sexy shift dress to work and topping it off with a blazer throughout the day. "It's party on the inside, business on the outside. Look for a dress with a slim silhouette, like a pencil skirt or shift," she says. Since you're still coming from work, she recommends toning down the shiny details on the dress and focusing on other embellishments instead. "A little bit of flair, like clever draping or subtle embellishment will still look work-appropriate. Look for sexy details like a dress cut low in the back that can be concealed by your blazer while at work—-you can ditch the blazer after," adds Perez. 


 State your piece 

State your piece
Our style experts have weighed in on statement pieces and they all agree that accessories can spell the difference between drab and fab. They're also unanimous in that the statement piece should be just one versus piling on the bling. "Just one statement piece: a necklace, earrings or a bracelet, but make sure your accessory speaks volumes by itself," shares Love Chic fashion blogger Shai Lagarde. "Accessorize your day-to-night dress with statement accents but don't overload," warns Perez. "It's also good to go with a nice pair of dangling earrings, they help frame your face," adds Shop Manila Inc. COO Ruby Gan.
