evening wear separates for fall

Fall fashion is the time to embrace rich colors and luxurious textures. Although it may be tempting to wear only dark neutrals, especially in the evening, there are many stylish ways to make your look a little more interesting. This color palette of black, grey, silver, and deep red is sophisticated and the sequins on the sweater add a hint of fun.

A dress may seem like the obvious choice for an evening out, but I often prefer wearing a skirt. You can switch up the look by choosing tops in different colors. In this outfit I paired black with the floral skirt, but it would look equally great with silver, deep red, or blush pink.

During the summer I suggest wearing silk tops with skirts for evening, but in the cooler months a sweater is a great option both for its warmth and for the texture it adds to the ensemble. Even a skirt you buy for cooler weather may be able to transition to spring or early summer with the right accessories and a top in a seasonal fabric. Don't forget to add nail polish in a coordinating color!
