So, technically we can’t go out for drinks at our favorite bars like we used to because of COVID-19 regulations, but we can still look cute and have a cocktail night in! Here is some outfit inspiration for when we’re able to have fun bar nights again plus some cocktail recipes for good measure. In the meantime, I hope that these looks motivate you for happier times to come and serve as a reminder to use your cute clothes!
When was the last time you got dressed up for a special occasion? If it took you a long time to answer that, then this is the perfect excuse to throw on some makeup and a new outfit. If you haven’t been feeling encouraged to do things from home, this is a great opportunity for you and a friend or a loved one to have some fun together!

Setting a mood for an outfit or social event is important! Since we’re entering the spring and summer season, I’m thinking of colorful patterns, warm tones, flowy and comfortable outfits that make you look and feel good. Mixing and matching prints and textures will be a fun way to incorporate your unique style into an outfit.
Mood Board
The 2021 trends are all about neon colors, cool patterns, chunky jewelry, baggy clothes, monochrome outfits, bralettes, sheer material and much more. Keep in mind that when it comes to creating a look — accessories, nails and hair are also an essential part of an outfit.
