Dressing Tips III - When to wear what (for ladies)

Just as occasions vary, dressings do too to suit the occasions. There are a lot of incidences where people have wrong clothings for right occasions and or right clothings for the wrong occasions. We fail to realize that not every dressing that seems right is actually suitable for all occasions. I have once been guilty of this recently and some youths still are. The outfit you have for school, might be the one you will have for casual but not formal events.

For formal events like awards nights, receptions of ceremonies and etc, a formal outfit is called for. For a lady, this could be a dress(long or short, as the case may be) or corporate pants, a skirt(knee length or slightly above) or shorts and a corporate blouse or a not-too-corporate shirt (could be ruffled a shirt). The dressing for such occasions is usually accompanied by light make-up and accessories with the accessories being the jewelries, a purse and a pair of shoes. Note that a purse should always be used for corporate evening events. in order to emphasize your dressing, suiting high-heeled shoes should be worn.

For a semi-formal event such as a soirée, jeans are likely to be acceptable. Wearing really short dresses with pantyhose makes the dressing look casual but with high-heeled shoes, they fit in for a semi-formal event. Clothes for semi-formal events need a touch or formality and casualty simultaneously. With jeans, a ruffled shirt could be worn. A pair of high-heeled shoes, a suiting purse and suiting jewelries can be used to accessorize. The dresses could be made of cotton or the native ankara and some maxi dresses could be used as well. A maxi dresses, in this case, will go with low-heeled slip-ons and a handbag.

Casual dressing is something we are used to. An everyday dress code.Casual clothings are used for school, casual gatherings such as get-togethers, visiting friends, hanging out and a lot more. The common dress code for this is usually a pair of jeans and a top(for ladies). Recently, casual outfits now could be dresses (maxi, shorts and all), ones that are casual though. Hardly do ladies wear skirts, I wonder why.
