Outfit a day #2: For formal occasions

There are occasions when a person just needs to dress up. Whether it be for a hot date or just because we feel like it, we all need some fancying up from time to time. And if anyone knows about looking classy, it's me.

But there are some rules. Dressing up can be amazing, or a complete disaster. It's a fine line to walk. And I shall guide you down that line.

Rule #1: Outerwear

Your cold weather gear can make or break an outfit. Many people don't take this into consideration, and the mistake can be fatal. Just think about it. What if I had worn a black plastic mack with this? Or a track jacket? I don't think any of us can picture how much of a disaster that would have been. But a tried and true tip is this: A cloak never goes wrong.

Rule #2: Accessories

Necklaces? Cliche. Earrings? Overdone. Bracelets? Don't even think about it. Bow and arrow? Two words. THE. FUTURE.

Rule #3: Footwear

Fashions come and go. Some things come back around two or three times before they die out. But there are certain things that never go out of style. One such thing: Pirate boots. There's nothing more to say.

Rule #4: Flannel

Yes and yes. Hats (especially pointy ones). Hooded cloaks. The possibilities are endless.
