A night downtown with the girls

An outfit for downtown really depends on who you are and what you're trying to accomplish that night. If you're the type of girl who goes downtown with the intention of getting as many guys as possible to hit on you, this post is not for you. However, if you enjoy a fun night on the town with your girlfriends, you're in the right place. (And hey, there's no harm if a few guys look your way).

In my opinion, an outfit for downtown should be comfortable, cool, and confident. As I'm sure you know 6th St., also known as "dirty six,"  requires a good amount of walking, so make sure you have on some bearable shoes. I suggest heeled boots because they support your ankles, which will be a life saver when you're stumbling to 7th and Trinity to find a cab at the end of the night.

In addition, I like to go for a pair of cool skinny pants, especially in the winter, that are flexible enough to allow you to drop it low on the dance floor with your girlfriends. Pair those with one of your favorite tops that makes you feel sexy and confident. As I always say ladies: the better you feel on the inside, the better you look on the outside.

To complete the outfit, put on a cool leather jacket to add some edge, and some awesome jewelry for just the right amount of a girly touch. And there you
have it! The perfect outfit for a night downtown. And not that it matters because you're with your girls, but strut your stuff at any bar wearing this awesome outfit and a personality full of confidence, and you'll definitely have looks coming your way.

Which will make it that much better when you recite the classic line: "sorry boys, it's girls night!"
