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.
