DAY TO NIGHT: black jeans and a white shirt

If you’re anything like me, you need at least an hour to prepare yourself for a night out. However with the fast pace of life these days,  this is not always possible and you find yourself having to wear your day time outfit,  out to dinner with friends.

So here are my tips for creating the perfect evening look whilst still wearing your day time clothes.

Taking an outfit from day to night is as simple as 1, 2, 3.

1. Layers: adding a leather jacket or gold belt can add night time elegance to any look.

2. Accessories: nothing says “evening” more than some oversized bling like a statement necklace or chunky ring.

3. Shoes: the easiest was to take a look from to night is by adding a pair of killer heels.


For my DAY TO NIGHT look I started with a basic classic combo of black jeans and a white shirt.

Black jeans and white shirts were made for each other! They are the perfect foundation for any ensemble and are definitely wardrobe essentials.

  For my casual look I am wearing my base pieces, black jeans and a white shirt, with a knit vest, cut out boots and a satchel bag.

I created my evening look by; swapping my casual knit vest for a black leather jacket, accessorising with a  clutch and statement necklace and ditching my casual boots for a pair of heels. I also some red lipstick to complete the look.
