Quick tips on making a cocktail dress look more chic and formal without going to the tailor?

Author: admin  |  Category: cocktail dress

I have a spaghetti-strapped, empire cut, thigh length, green dress for my graduation ball. It’s a perfect cut for my body and color for my skin tone.

However, I find that for a for a formal occasion, it’s too plain. I dun wanna go to a tailor to get it altered and all. I just need quick and smart tips to make it look more formal and chic :)

You could go with the green earrings and necklace………but if I were you…….if I really wanted to dress it up…….I would go with silver or gold accessories. Both Silver and Gold go with green and can bring it up to formal………Silver is more in style now than gold…..so I have some links for you to look at:

    The right shoes and earrings can dress up any outfit. Get some high, strappy, sparkly heals, and some big, chandelier style (fake) emerald earrings.

    Add a rhinestone brooch to it and wear some nice jewelry that matches the brooch!
