It’s the most wonderful time of the year and that means your schedule will be full of holiday parties with friends and the inevitable holiday office party. Choosing the perfect holiday party outfit can be a difficult decision. You have to strike a balance between looking professional but also chic and classic. These simple styles will have you going from the office straight to your holiday party with just a few simple updates!
We’re Seeing Velvet Everywhere
If you’ve done any clothes shopping in the past few months, you’ve most certainly seen a vast amount of velvet. Velvet is trending everywhere from blazers and trousers to dresses and skirts. Even better, there are plenty of staples that could double from daytime office to nighttime party. You’ll look put together but also a little festive and edgy. Throw on some diamonds to take this look to the next level.
Prints
Whether you are looking to wear a dress, jumpsuit, or a pants-top combo, adding a fun print is a great way to take your typical office wear into party wear. There are so many different graphics from florals and plaids to animal print or geometrics. No matter your style or shape, you will surely find something that is just perfect for what you are looking for. You won’t even need to worry about accessorizing because you will already have a lot going on with the graphics!
A dress, jumpsuit, or top-and-pant combo in an all-over print is an easy way to attract attention at your office’s holiday party. Plus, you don’t need to over-accessorize.
Add a Bit of Color
If you’re anything like most employees, you typically wear a more classic suit colors like grey, black, or even taupe. Add a little holiday cheer with a brighter color suit. It will be a bit unexpected and may take some time to adjust to, but it is certain to raise your spirits and add the perfect festive touch to any work holiday party! Pair with some more dramatic makeup like a darker lipstick and shimmer eyeshadow and you can ease naturally into your evening event!
Go Classic with Red
Not many people are bold enough to make red a staple in their work wear. Make an entrance with a classic, yet chic addition to any holiday party. During the holiday season, a red dress with strappy heels is the new little black dress. There will be many styles to choose from since red is a common color during the holiday season. No matter what silhouette you choose you won’t need much else to be the star of the holiday office party!
Get ready to make an entrance at your office bash. There’s no need to get anything too fancy, you can work with what you have or make these simple updates to your wardrobe. The best part is you will be able to repurpose these outfits throughout the year rather than when you buy a more formal dress for a work event. Happy Shopping!
