This time of year there are a ton of cocktail parties, after work get-togethers, and dinner parties. Year after year I’m asked the same question:
How can I transition a work outfit into an after hours party look?
WORK OUTFIT
Go for a simple yet modern look, like a wrap dress with some added detail. This dress is appropriate for work, and can be made to look sexy and festive for after work.
How to get the work look.
Add a camisole. You don’t want to reveal too much at work, it isn’t appropriate.
Choose a substantial tote that you can put your evening accessories in, but that doesn’t look like a suitcase.
Sensible shoes, not frumpy, just not stilettos.
Keep Jewelry delicate and simple.

PARTY OUTFIT
How to get an evening look
Switch out the sensible shoes for a seriously hot pair. These Dolce Vita ‘Viper’ caged pumps are perfect!
Remove the camisole. Let the deep V work it’s sexy magic!
Earrings that make a statement. Go for something trendy like wrapped or braided. This pair looks like chains – edgy.
A clutch is the perfect evening bag. The gold on this one brings the look together. The gold relates all around the look now.
A giant cocktail ring.
Make your eye makeup smokey, and you’ll be smoldering all night.
