Do you need something to cover up in when you are out at a classy event? If you are looking for something to wear when it is chilly out instead of wearing a coat, then you need to wear a bolero. It is like a jacket but cropped and can fit over most fancy evening gowns when needed. Of course, there are many different ways that you can wear a bolero, depending on where you are wearing it and with what.
Commonly, a bolero jacket will cover only the upper torso, shoulders, and arms, leaving the waist and hips uncovered. A bolero jacket can be handy for women heading straight from work or formal functions. This handy trick can prevent dragging along a second outfit choice, making the transition from day to night as simple as removing the bolero. I love wearing boleros and it’s handy when I have my (quite frankly), self-consciousness on scars at my back. If you are looking for a cover up for an evening dinner party, then you can wear black or other darker shades bolero.

Consider a bolero jacket that has embellishment, it will create or accentuate your figure.
You may want to consider a bolero jacket that has a few embellishments, such as feathers or studs to create or accentuate your figure which involves widening the shoulder slightly. Wearing a full length skirt can further emphasize the natural curves of your body by shrinking the appearance of the waist. You can take this look a step further if you like by adding on a nice belt or a set of heels.
