What can be better than a fun girls’ night out with your group of girl friends? After a whole week of working hard during the weekdays, an outing with besties can take the pressure off and be the ultimate social anti-depressant.
According to a study conducted by UCLA on Friendship Among Women, it was revealed that hanging out with your girlfriends releases oxytocins — hormones which counters stress and induces a calming effect. So really, your girlfriends are helping you to heal your soul AND your health, so what are you waiting for? Get down to calling your friends and celebrate the weekends together! Here, we have rounded up four very stylish looks for you girls to strut on the street in absolute style on that epic night out!
1. Tomboy cool
Ever since Coco Chanel stole some of her boyfriend’s menswear clothing items in the earlier part of the 20th century, the world of women’s fashion has embraced men’s clothing and given women a chance to play with an androgynous style. If you aren’t feeling up to wearing a dress for a GNO, show off some boyish charm by slipping into a slim-fit suit, tailored pants and a pair of brogues or oxfords. Or you could switch the shoes out for heels for a sexier look.
2. Bold and beautiful
Being adults doesn’t mean we have to stop enjoying dress up days. Nights out with your girls means more opportunities to get all fancy and adventurous with your sartorial choices. After all, you are going to have fun with your trusted girlfriends, bust out something new and risky or wear those pieces that only they can appreciate — big bling, aggressively cool shoes and bold prints and patterns. Mix and match bold colours with some daring patterns or prints, more is more when it comes to a night out in town with your friends!
3. Pretty feminine
Whether you and the girls are taking on casual or formal events, a feminine flare dress has an immensely forgiving cut that is not just flattering, but can be a total statement maker too. Pair with cute flats and a sweater to throw over just in case the weather (or the air-conditioning) gets too chilly. A skater skirt works the same way, and is another girly choice that would love perfect with a crop top and funky shoes.
4. Monochrome
When in doubt, always go black and white. This combination, when done right, can be a statement all on its own. And if you want to inject some colour or texture to your outfit, throw on some bling or grab a clutch in an interesting texture, colour, print or pattern.
