Office Outfit Must-Haves From Day to Night
There are many ways to transform your daytime office look into one that is happy hour ready. You just have to have the right foundations.
When working in a fast paced corporate environment, it is not unlikely for your itinerary to stretch on to a spontaneous dinner or cocktail invite. Looking good from day to night shows that you can carry yourself well despite the stress of a full day’s work. Besides, when you feel good about what you are wearing and not worrying about whether you’re dressed appropriately, you are able to enjoy the occasion more. Whether out with co-workers or friends, be ready for the night ahead with these tips.
Think of your ensemble as a basic canvas
Consider versatile pieces for your daily outfits. Blacks, whites, and nudes are timeless and easy to dress up or dress down. If polished and put together well, you can look very smart and expensive. An LBD or LWD – little black/white dress or cigarette pants are all items that can be dressed up or down. When bringing an outfit from day into night, simply adding a touch of color or sparkle can easily do the trick.
Stack on the Jewellery
Have a few pieces of beautiful jewellery in your bag that you can stack on at night. Keep it minimal in the mornings and high drama in the evenings. Layer thin strands with different lengths or wear one big statement necklace.
Invest in a Designer Jacket
Finding the right jacket is an important move for your fashion game. There are many beautiful designer jackets for women out there to choose from, and finding the right one for you can help spruce up your attire easily. Wear it with an ironed button down in the morning and switch it into a tank top at night. This menswear inspired look can make any girl look kick ass day or night.
Keep a Clutch in Your Caddy
If you can afford to keep your bigger bag in the office, use a clutch for the evening. Take your valuables and place them in a clutch before heading out for cocktails. This simple switch can make your look completely different. TIP! Store your valuables and essentials in a pouch that fits in a clutch or your day bag so you don’t forget anything while switching bags!
Refresh Your Make Up
A quick touch up can make all the difference in the world. My favorite day to night move is an extra swipe of liquid liner. You can also designate a cocktail hour lipstick that can be your go to for a day to night switch up. No need to pile on the make-up! An quick change of shade can make you look stressfree and effortless.
