  • So when it comes to going out in New York almost anything goes. The key thing to keep

  • in mind is that you should really dress it up.

  • You know, New York's a pretty casual place and you don't have to worry too much

  • during the day but at nighttime, especially if you're going to the clubs or

  • something likthe bigger nightlife scenes that's where you really want to

  • dial it up.

  • And and easy way to do that, again, is the statement shoes or a statement bag.

  • Pick like a really, like a high pair of heels as long as you can still dance in

  • them. Maybe something with a bright color or even some cool hardware or

  • studding. Just something that's like really fun and funky and can take a

  • simple dress and make it look really, really glamorous and just ready for the

  • night time.

  • Another way to sort of take a simple outfit is, again, a statement bag. A

  • bright bag. Metallics. Golds. Anything you're doing, especially at night,

  • you know it's dark, you want to be eye-catching and you want to sort of stand out in

  • the crowd. And an easy way to do that is bright colors, bright metallics, lots

  • of hardware. And basically just accessorizing as much as you possibly can. You know big

  • jewelry.

  • I would definitely recommend a more nighttime makeup look. A little more

  • red lipstick. And then pick a cool jacket, especially if you're going in the winter months

  • or maybe some, or during the time when you need to have some layers. Keep in mind that

  • what people are seeing of you is just going to be your outerwear. So pick a really

  • cool leather jacket and maybe a bright scarf. Or you know if it's a heavier coat

  • because it's colder maybe something with some print or texture, like a

  • leopard print. Or a bright color, like a red coat.

  • The thing to keep in mind when going out in New York is again, it's just, it's really

  • glamorous and it's all about sort of taking your personal style and dialing

  • it up a notch. So if you're going to wear a hat maybe pair it with some big

  • earrings.

  • Another thing to do is, you know, take a cool jacket in a bright color that's still

  • really fitted around the waist so that it creates a cool line with maybe a

  • little black dress. It's another way to just sort of take things that you

  • already have in your closet and recycle them and sort of dial them up a

  • notch for the evening.

  • New York can be a little tricky with the nightlife. I think you should just

  • dress for what you're in the mood for. If you're going somewhere that's you know maybe

  • has a velvet rope or seems like it might be a little harder to get into, you want to really

  • dress it up. You want to look like you are meant to be there and fit the part.

  • You know if you're going to a bar you can wear sneakers and jeans. Don't worry about

  • it. I think what you just don't want to do is look like you, you know, aren't dressed

  • for the location. You know, restaurants rarely have dress codes but clubs might. And when

  • it comes to getting in they're going to look at you and they're going

  • to say, 'All right. Who really wants to be here and who's going to fit in

  • here.' And a cool way to do that is make yourself stand out. It's not about

  • looking expensive or having like the shortest skirt or the highest heels. It's

  • just about standing out and looking yourself.

  • So again, that's accessorizing, that's bright colors. And that's maybe just you know adding

  • a little more oomph than you would normally do during the day.
