What do I wear to a work holiday party?
Since you are undoubtedly fabulous and focused at work, an office holiday party can be the perfect opportunity to show off your fun and fashionable side to your co-workers. And while the only rule here is to remain somewhat modest and entirely professional, we recommend these three approaches to showing off your stylish side.
Since much of our day-to-day office wear tends to be heavier on the black and gray side, try a refreshingly opposite look: all white. Think monochromatic winter wonderland with heavier, seasonably appropriate fabrics like wool, felt, chunky knits, and cashmere.
If your holiday party is straight after work and you don't have time for a total change, try layering on some sequins that can make an otherwise serious office look feel fun.
Try a sequined blazer over a blouse, an embellished cardigan over a crewneck top, or even a longer coat with touches of sparkle can do the trick.
A look that references this classic holiday ballet can feel warmly nostalgic and totally unexpected. A tutu’s not required; instead pair a ballet-like full skirt with a more shrunken sweater or blouse.
To edge up this very feminine look, you can try a biker jacket over a buttoned-up black blouse or tee instead. Sweep you hair back in a sweet bun and pair with delicate, danceable shoes.
