Trendspotting: Nighttime Neutrals

When you think of cocktail attire, the first idea that often pops into your head is something dark, tight, and sparkly, right?

When you think of cocktail attire, the first idea that often pops into your head is something dark, tight, and sparkly, right? Well this season, celebs are shaking things up with something a little lighter and brighter; think fresh Winter whites, sleek metallic nudes, and pops of camel. The neutral evening wear look is easy to achieve — just see how some of our fashionable favorites pull it off. Rosie Huntington-Whiteley kept things supersexy on the red carpet in a slinky, nude, knee-length Burberry dress, Amber Heard stepped out in a sequined Alessandra Rich column gown, and Leighton Meester went short and strapless in an off-white Balmain dress with gold accents. All three ladies prove that going neutral at night can make for a sexy, slightly unexpected look. See for yourself when you shop our picks below!
