Tip #6: So what to wear for accessories? Do wear neutral jewelry, like black or nude. Or go for a really trendy and perfectly matching (everything) jewelry "color": clear. Can't go wrong with that, as long as it's generally a classy piece. (You might want to nix the chandelier/statement stuff.)
Tip #7: It's a great idea to cover up. We're thinking a black cardigan. You might even feel too wild sometimes without it. (Impromptu mother-in-law visit?)
Tip #1: Wear something simple in a flattering and classy shape; like something pulled in at the waist by designer Diane von Furstenberg.
Tip #2: Again with the classy, wear at least a somewhat modest hemline for a dress/skirt. Don't show major thigh! (And don't wear leopard pants.)
Tip #3: Keep other aspects simple and neutral; without too much detail or range in colors.
Tip #4: While, like we wrote, we don't want you going sexbomb, we also don't want you to cover everything from your chin to your wrists to your ankles in leopard. That's just too much! (Example of that bad fashion here and here.)
Tip #5: You've heard of double denim and mixing prints, but don't double up on the leopard prints. It's not only tacky, but makes one look kind of crazy, or just trashy.
