{Fashion} Highlight: Zara Evening (asymmetry and sequins rule!)

December 7, 2011
When I think of evening wear, I think of apparel that is a little darker, a little sleeker, and a bit slinkier.  It is also the time to wear something a touch more bold – maybe you could show a little leg, throw on something glittery, or put together an unexpected combination.
This Zara evening collection puts together unexpected asymmetrical looks in muted colors and also includes the now obligatory sequined tops.  I’m of course a fan of the sparkles for evening, but am also drawn to the asymmetrical looks (I don’t know if I would have the guts to wear it, but I’m intrigued!)What is your evening look?

    I think they’re all beautiful–especially the more feminine looks. I looooove sequins and anything bold. The second to last picture (with the gold glittery cardigan) is my fave! What a perfect NYE outfit!

    I love the styling of the last look. The boots and dress look great together. My evening look right now is all about very dark (often cuffed) denim, a black cardigan, collared shirt, knit tie and tie clip. A great bag and boots complete the look. It’s very rockabilly going to Soho (or so I’d like to think : ) )

    Um, so I love ALL of these! Monochrome and sequins, eeek, too much perfection!

    These looks are fantastic! My signature evening look is a black tuxedo jacket – over almost anything I’m wearing. It looks polished and covers my arms, which I’m slightly self-conscious about 🙂

    Sequins are a holiday must! Love the classic simplicity of the 1st look and the sequin cardi over the short Peter Pan collar dress.

  • Krysten @ Why Girls Are Weird December 7, 2011 at 15:23

    Yes to sequins please!

  • Alena: Oh, It's Just Perfect! December 7, 2011 at 21:03

    I love that one-shoulder black dress. So sleek looking! My evening attire is usually a black dress or something in a bright color.

  • Aline December 7, 2011 at 22:26

    I prefer to wear a dress for eveningwear, specifically jewel toned or sequins cocktail dresses are my absolute favorite.

  • THE ALTERNATIVE WIFE December 8, 2011 at 01:31

    I love it all!!! Would so do all of the sequins. As I said before, I’m a fan 🙂 And I don’t think I have the courage to wear the asymmetrical ones either but I wish I did! 🙂 xoxo

  • Punctuation Mark December 8, 2011 at 04:40

  • LyddieGal December 8, 2011 at 05:22

    the sequins under the tweed jacket would be so perfect for the office holiday party!

    Zara always seems to get it perfect. I love the asymmetrical dress and that gold sequin jacket. Too bad it’s all black though.

  • honey my heart December 9, 2011 at 23:59
