What to Wear for a Casino Night Out

Wearing a fantastic outfit on a night out can give you a great confidence boost and affect the way other people perceive you. There are times it can even be advantageous, such as if you are going to a casino for the evening. Feeling good about yourself could give you the edge when gambling, and that confidence will be picked up on by the other players too. It could even be intimidating, which will serve you well in a game of poker.

The great thing is that there are many styles of clothing you can choose from for a visit to the casino. It doesn’t have to be a floor-length, backless evening gown — you can opt for dresses, skirts or even trousers. As long as you look good and decent, you will have a great night in a casino.

If you want to wear a dress, it can be short, as long as it’s not too short. A sparkly little black dress can work to great effect. If you want to avoid sparkle on your outfit, you could go for sparkle in the form of jewelry. Dangly earrings or a statement necklace are sometimes all you need to jazz up a fairly routine outfit. If you want to wear a dress but also want to look formal, say if you are out with business associates, you could pair it with a blazer and court shoes as opposed to strappy sandals.

If you are looking for something a little more casual and comfortable — maybe you are just going for dinner or want to be comfortable as you sit at the tables and gamble — a pencil skirt with a sparkly blouse is a good option, or you could wear tapered trousers with a camisole-style top with elegant jewelry for an understated but elegant look.

Men

The general look for a man visiting an upscale casino is a classic suit and a crisp white shirt. If you want to add a little flourish, you could add a bow tie that is a different color than your suit. This is a very debonair and charming look that is bound to get attention from other patrons. If you are going for this kind of a classy look, it is good to team it with some slim shoes with thin soles. You don’t want to wear anything with a bulky sole that will take away from the overall elegant look. This is a great look if you aren’t really there for gambling, but just want to hang out at the bar and meet people.

If you going to the casino to attract the attention of a lady, it’s definitely worth dressing to impress. If you want to go for a smarter casual look, you combine pieces like smart jeans, an open buttoned shirt, a blazer or even a sport coat over a shirt for a more fashionable look. If you are going to play slots, which is a more solitary activity that doesn’t involve socializing, you generally don’t need to think too hard about your outfit. You could get away with a regular shirt and jeans, but be prepared to feel on the side-lines if you dress down.

And if you don’t want to even put on your shoes, you can stay at home and play an online casino in your pajamas. Look for one with good reviews, like this Liberty Slots review. It may not be as glamorous as a night at the casino, but you will get the thrill and action of gambling and without the effort of choosing the perfect clothes.
