Killer day-to-night looks for showing off your tan

If there’s one thing we know about our #BellaBabes, it’s that they’ve got hectic social lives. Sunday brunches, after work drinks and Saturdays spent shopping means that these girls need to be ready for every style scenario. And because their days often take them from casual catch-ups to hitting the dance floor, outfits which work equally well for both daytime and night, have become the staple of their wardrobes. Plus, they have that added dimension of showing off their amazing Bellamianta glow.
While this might sound like a tall order, panic not! These Bella fans have perfected this fashion dilemma! So with this in mind, here is our round-up of killer day-to-night looks, perfect for highlighting you tan, as inspired by our very own Bella babes.
The midi dress
As proven by @lisa_lust_list, there’s few occasions that the midi dress doesn’t work for. In recent years, this longer length dress has found its place in our wardrobes and its versatility is what we love the most about it. By day, we’re teaming ours with chunky white trainers and throwing on a casual jacket, and by night, swapping the sneakers for a pair of killer heels. Finally, grab a cute clutch, pop on some statement earrings and you’re good to go. While your pins might be mostly covered up, that’s no excuse for pasty ankles. Plus, by choosing a short sleeved option, enjoy a little skin on show to show off those bronzed arms.
The suit
The ultimate desk to barstool look, statement suits will earn you some serious style points. We love @inthedeetales’ take on this trend, by elegantly teaming an oversized double breasted jacket, with mini skirt and slogan tee, to nail two of summer’s hottest trends at once. For a Saturday spent shopping, keep things casual, by pairing with ankle boots and a bucket handbag, while popping on heels is perfect for date night. If a mini skirt and jacket combo is your calling, be beautifully bronzed with Bellamianta.
The tailored white dress
As any true Bella babe knows, white is the perfect choice for really showing off that glow. @ohsofemme effortlessly does it in this chic off-the-shoulder number, which would work equally well for both daytime and night. To keep it casual, make flats your go-to and when the occasion calls for it, pop on a pair of perspex heels to elongate and show off those beautifully bronzed pins.
The mini dress
Look at Lorna from @fashionboss_ie nailing perfect daytime style! While this outfit offers ease-of-wear, it’s totally chic! The mini dress has stood the (fashion) test of time and we can’t say we’re surprised. Ideal for showing off a glowing complexion, it is definitely every Bella babe’s go-to item.
The jumpsuit
Every wardrobe deserves to have at least one classic black jumpsuit. Again, it’s all about the accessories here. As @girlyinspocorner proves, statement accessories are key when taking your look from day-to-night. Need to rock the look for daytime? Ditch the heels and pair with a casual jacket for laidback style that we love.
