How To Make Your Work Clothes Work For You!

If you’re like me you at least tried to have a two separate wardrobes: a 9-5 wardrobe and a weekend wardrobe. Of course this didn’t work because I’m always playing with style, colors, etc. Learn how to make your 9-5 wardrobe work on a Friday night out.

Mix Prints: Mix your plaid with floral prints. Mix your polka dots with stripes. Mix your gingham with metal tones. And everything else you can imagine! 

Add Something Casual: The most straight-forward way to do this may be to add denim, leather or light casual outerwear. Adding a denim or leather jacket or a casual jacket instantly brings a business casual down to a casual outfit.

Let the Shoes Steal the Show: Instead of wearing your office acceptable flats or mid-height heels go for show stopping shoes! Perhaps wear a 6 inch pump, a pair of maroon heels with fringe, or maybe a blinded out pair of booties. Bring an element of excitement to an expected outfit!

Bling it Out: Add some bold jewels or accessories. This can be done with metallics like silver and gold. An alternative may be to add colored jewelry like emerald, ruby & rose gold. This creates an edgier or funkier outfit able to work anywhere.
