I Like to Keep It Easy When Going Out—These Evening Looks Have My Approval

Easy is the name of my fashion game. As I recently shared here, I like to keep it pretty fuss-free in my day-to-day. And yes, this includes my going-out looks. On that note, I thought I’d highlight a range of outfit ideas that could be worthy options for evenings out.
I went through my saved folder on IG and pulled out the going-out ensembles that have my approval because they’re simple (as in, they don't require a ton of pieces) yet effortlessly chic. I also made sure to round up a wide variety of outfits, so whether you’re interested in something more casual for date night or a fancier ensemble for an event, there’s something here for you.
Keep scrolling for my outfit ideas and shopping recommendations.
Oversize shirts are trending hard right now, and a silhouette in a colorful hue is a standout with shorts and heels.
While a vibrant dress like this one seems high concept, it's really a one-and-done situation. Toss the colorful dress on with some heels, and you’re set.
This crop top, high-waisted jeans, and sandals make an easy yet effortlessly chic evening look.
A tube dress or strapless number is effortless and can be brought to the next level with a chain belt.
You can’t go wrong with a suit moment on a night out, especially one in a looser cut.
A cutout top and sharp leather pants make an incredibly sleek outfit.
Here’s another sophisticated ensemble featuring a blazer and wide-leg trousers. Elegant and easy.
