When it comes to office holiday parties, there are things you can do to change your outfit to make it look more festiveSome ladies like to either change their shoes or add an accessory to their outfit and still look work appropriate. I mentioned in my previous outfit post that I wanted to show you a couple of different ways to style a sequin skirt and today's post is a follow up from that and how you can incorporate it into work, after hours obviously. Changing from a conservative pencil skirt/trouser into a sequin skirt can help give an outfit a fun, flirty, but still work appropriate look. 

I love wearing cardigans because they are thin enough that I could stuff in my purse for that extra layer I need at times and it's just a staple item that won't go out of style. Some may say that cardigans make you look dull or should only be limited to older women, but a stylish way to wear it is to tuck them into your skirt/pants. For me, it looks more polished and pulls the overall look together without appearing sloppy.

Ladies, do you have any fun ways to dress up your outfit for your office holiday party?

  8. I'm loving this outfit so much! I especially like how the ruffles come through from underneath the cardi. I agree - cardis aren't just for older women. They are a workplace staple for me, particularly with a bright shirt underneath. A chunky necklace is my holiday party must.

    I really love your blog, I just found it and followed instantly. I can't wait to catch up on all I've missed!
