Putting on your party clothes at the office

Why shouldn't party outfits be worn only for special occasions? What a pity to have to deprive oneself of wearing pretty sequin tops, sequin dresses or long satin skirts! When it comes to looking stylish and polished at the office, it's important to plan your outfit and choose pieces that are classic and timeless, but also modern. You can also add accessories to complete your outfit. Start by identifying your office dress code, then choose appropriate and comfortable pieces. We give you our best tips to adopt for a chic and professional look, wearing your best party clothes.

Mix your basics with more chic pieces

For an elegant and simple outfit, you can opt for the combination of a sequin top, with tailored pants and a blazer. In particular, you can wear a sequin top with a dungaree dress, cotton tights and derbies, which will cut the party look. And don't forget the must-have matcher! Denim jeans. It will perfectly complete your chic and casual look. With a pair of pumps, a patterned or sequined blazer, you're all set to spend a day at the office while looking chic. Another tip that can add a lot of style to your outfit. Belting your blazer or dress to mark your waist is ideal for this kind of look. For cooler days, there's nothing to stop you from pulling out your pleated, satin skirt. It will be ideal with a loose sweater that you can tuck inside and also add a belt.

Vary the materials

From velvet, to silk, to metallic, to satin, these materials are very trendy for a party look. It is quite possible to create a balance, between a chic and casual style. For example, you can transform your little black evening dress into a skirt with a thick knitted cardigan and opt for ankle boots or thigh-high boots to accessorize your outfit. If you have a long and tight dress, the ideal is to wear a turtleneck with rather basic tones, with a belt and ankle boots. For satin and silk, we often find these materials through lingerie, but you can break this look, integrating your look with a patterned sweater or with boots. Velvet is very trendy at the moment and it comes in several categories such as dresses, overalls, flare pants or blazers for a more elegant side. You can mix your evening pieces with your basics to create the perfect balance for your office outfit.    

Accessorize your outfit

Accessories are a great way to add some flair to your office look, but it's important to keep it simple. Too many accessories can be a bit "too much" and make your look feel cluttered. Instead, choose a few pieces that complement each other and that can help make your look stand out. For example, you can add a necklace, a pair of dangling earrings or a colorful scarf to your look. Wearing a sequin clutch on a basic outfit can also make all the difference.        

Chic to the core

Finally, you need to think about the shoes you are going to wear. Shoes are an important part of your look and can make or break your entire outfit. Look for a pair of shoes that are both comfortable and stylish. Stick to neutral colors like black, brown and gray for a classic look. You can also opt for a pair of patent or sequin heels to add a little height and glamour. You will have understood, it is no longer a question of leaving in your closet your festive outfits for big events or waiting for the next holidays, you will be able to carry over your sequin dress with your most comfortable sweater for this winter. For a summer look, adopt a basic top with a skirt or even more chic pants, suit style.
