Taking Your Outfit from Work to Play

The work day is coming to a close, but rather than getting ready to head home, it's time to get your second wind before attending an event. We've all been there and have likely faced the same issue countless times: elevating our daytime looks from work to play. Whether it's casual drinks with a friend or a big client launch party, the truth is that it's pretty difficult to feel your best in the evening when forced to sport the same look you've been wearing all day long. So, what's a girl to do? Rush home for a pit stop? Tote around an extra outfit and change in the car? We think not. Take a look at the list below for some quick ideas for spicing up your daytime work look for a little after-hours play. day_to_night_outfit_guide

 

Add a piece of statement jewelry - Adding a flirty piece of jewelry can add a dash of fun to any look.

Loosen up those buttons - If you'r wearing a button-up top, unhook an extra button to give your look a more care-free feel.

Give yourself a boost - Wearing flats to work might be the only way to get through the day, but keep a pair of heels in the car for a fast and easy upgrade.

Dress in Layers - Dressing in layers is an easy way to keep it all the way professional during the day, while still giving yourself fresh options for the evening. Wear a top with a stylish neckline under your cardigan or blazer and strip your top layer for a whole new look.

Keep a bold lipstick on hand - When all else fails, lipstick is a quick and easy way to punch-up that daytime look. Pass a vibrant color over your lips for some instant glam.
