Up All Night

I love getting dressed up and going out in the city.  Here are a few outfits I'd like to wear for a night out with the girls...

I love nautical inspired clothes and this dress makes the cut. I'd like to accessorize it with a bright clutch and neutral shoe.

• Herve Leger Sailor Bandage Dress - $1,590 ($150 on RentTheRunway.com (RTR))
• Maison Martin Margiela Reflector-Embellished Leather Clutch - $1,275
• No. 704b. Ashley Leather Platform Pump - $109.95

With black dresses, you can always get a little crazier with accessories. I like adding a bit of sparkle to this Helmut Lang dress.

• Helmut Lang Lace Detail Mini Dress - $450 ($75 on RTR)
• Judith Leiber Package Clutch - $3,995
• Christian Louboutin Engin 120 Studded Pumps - $885

Like the black dress, the neutral dress is a good base to mix with your fiercest black accessories. I love this look and want it all!

• Christian Siriano Fierce Mocha Mini - $1,200 ($150 on RTR)
• Balmain Night Punk Studded Suede Clutch - $2,710
• Charlotte Olympia Eve Ankle Boots - $1,400
