Fashion and Style Questions
I am going to a formal wedding on New Year's Eve. I want to wear a long velvet skirt and a chiffon blouse. The top is a matte black (a lined bodice and sheer sleeves) and the skirt, being velvet, is a deep black. My question is can I wear different shades of black together?
 
Yes you can mix different shades of black. Velvet and chiffon are a great combination. Be sure the outfit flatters your figure type and age.
I bought a short black sequined dress for new year's eve at a nightclub...is it OK to wear black tights with it, or is it better to not
wear any?
 It is perfectly OK to wear black tights with your short black sequined dress to a nightclub. Try your dress and tights on and see how it looks. If it looks good on you go for it! If you don't like how it looks try some other combinations and choose whichever looks the best.
What type of shoes or boots should I wear with a sequined skirt for New Years Eve?
    
You have a number of choices. You can wear pumps, sandals (with heels), peep toe pumps, sling backs or possibly dress booties. Stay away from anything that looks too heavy. When you decide on the top, try a few different style shoes with your outfit to see which style is most flattering.
I want to wear a sequined mini skirt for New Years Eve, is it OK to wear a lace top with it?
A lace top might compete with your sequined skirt.Try a satin, silk or velvet top.
