Buy a Blouse
A colorful girlish top (here from Derek Lam) — in a sweet Liberty, paisley, or graphic print — can anchor an entire ensemble. Pair it with jeans, a pencil skirt, or a sleeveless tunic.
Go Gray
You can never go wrong with a neutral, like ephemerally cool charcoal.
Do Daring the Right Way
Architectural and sculptural jackets and coats — some with a pop of color — are always exciting, as we saw backstage at Akris.
Keep It Classic
Timeless basics — like these from Tommy Hilfiger — are versatile enough for any occasion. Best of all, they can handle accessories with flair.
Bet on Black
Noir stilettos like these from Versace look great as either a sexy strappy shoe or a futuristic shape.
Minimize It
A petite purse, like this one from Salvatore Ferragamo, can still pack a powerful punch with a little artful detail.
Opt for Unique
You'll get good mileage mixing an unusual jewel, like this Vera Wang necklace, with either gowns or a basic white tee.
Find a Feminine Fit
A fitted frock or a flirty full skirt creates a lovely line for evening.
Update Classics
Stand out in a colorful leather trench with a skinny cincher, like these coats from Prada.
Mix in Metallics
The sheen of gold, silver, bronze, and other metals shown at Carolina Herrera transformed both dressier pieces and daytime separates.
Go Wild
A great animal print (literal or more arty) can serve as a fab neutral.
Carry Luxe Extras
A multihued skin bag (this one from Etro) will accent myriad looks.
Be a Lady
Looking polished and put together — like these Armani models — sends all the right messages.
