Take out fashion pieces with metallic embellishments along with statement jewellery to shine at cocktail parties, says an expert. Experts suggest what to wear to parties: Metallic embellishments: You can go for metallic jacquard flare fits, embellished neck metallic trapeze dresses, metallic skirts and metallic pencil dresses. Sequin dresses: Maxis, long gowns or sequin corset fitted dresses can do the magic. Cropped jackets: Black leather jackets along with black pump shoes, long sleeve lace cropped bolero shrugs and cropped metallic velvet jackets can be considered too. Embellished tops: Embellished Indian kurtis teamed up with black wide leg pants, sequin embellished sparkle glitter cowl neck tank top and embellished crop tops are good options.

Chic bags: Beaded clutches, silver satin rhinestone bags and glitter fabric purse or bags will help to accessories the party look.

What not to wear: Dull outfits: Avoid wearing dresses in dull yellow, pale green or mustard colour. Daytime outfits: Don't wear the regular outfits like jeans, T-shirts, flat heels or shoes with ordinary looks.
