4 Ways to Go From the Office to the Office Party

You'd ordinarily wear your printed button-down to work over opaque tights and with flats. Come party time, rip off those tights and slip on a pair of black ankle booties. Cover up with a hip moto jacket for a dose of edge.

Are you a jeans-and-t-shirt kind of employee? Not a problem. You can elevate simple blue jeans for any postwork fete. A cable-knit turtleneck and festive pumps add magic to your outfit. Keep hair messy and add a bright lipstick to complete the outfit.

A striped midi skirt and blouse might be your usual ensemble for the office. Come evening, try an off-the-shoulder mohair sweater and matching pumps.

Perhaps you favor jumpsuits in the office and typically wear them with ballet flats and blazers. For the bash, though, try ankle booties and a thin belt, and add a flat-brim hat and oversize earrings for an extra punch.
