Summer nights are the best nights and warm weather is the perfect excuse to spice up your wardrobe. Whether you’re having a night out with the girls or a dinner with your S.O.’s parents, it’s always a good idea to update your closet with some new summer styles. We stopped by Aritzia, one of Newsette HQ’s favorite stores, and picked out all the outfits you need this summer for every kind of night you may have.

Engagement Party

Everyone knows it’s the season for love, so you can bet you’ll have a few engagement parties to attend. A cute maxi dress is the perfect go-to–whether the celebration is a sit-down brunch or an outdoor occasion. This dress from Aritizia is flattering for all heights, and *bonus* you won’t overheat. Not to mention the color and pattern are perfect for summer.

Girls’ Night Out

Ditch your regular black pants and black top and spice things up. Anything goes when you’re having a night out with the girls. A sexy top and mini skirt duo is perfect to hit the clubs, while a floral beaded dress will light up the dance floor. *Twinning*

Date Night

Picking the perfect “date night” outfit is always time-consuming. When so many dates these days are from apps with people you haven’t met before, it can be hard to decide how to dress for your evening. Is he/she preppy or punk or fashionable? This comfortable jumpsuit can be dressed up with accessories if you’re going to a fancy dinner or dressed down with a jean jacket if you’re headed out to play mini golf.

Dinner with the Parents

Dressing to hang out with your special someone’s parent(s) can be extremely difficult. You want to be stylish, but also a bit conservative. A fun pair of pants and a minimalistic top is the perfect outfit formula, ensuring that you’re both sophisticated and stylish.
