Have you ever been in a situation where you have to go from office straight to a party, without time to change? Modern lifestyle often is full of rush and every minute counts. Running from one location to another can be stressful and sometimes you don’t even have a minute to take a breath. It is very useful to learn how to adapt to days like these and make them less stressful.
That is why we want to share some tips, how to transform your look easily, so you can go from your desk to a party without stress & look great!
1. CHOOSE A GOOD BASE
When you don’t have much time, you will really appreciate a good base, that can easily pass both- office and party dress code. Start with a simple dress or tailored pants and blouse. Pieces like these can easily be transformed into something fun!
2. LAYER, LAYER, LAYER!
Layers like blazers, scarfs, sweaters ect. can easily be removed or added to your look. Use layers to make your base more office-approved. You can remove them later and you’ll look completely different.
3. TEXTURES AND MORE LAYERS
As we said- layering is a golden ticket to a chic and unique outfit. But if you have to be in two completely different places with different dress codes, without time to change, you have to do it right! Think about fabrics- what makes you feel cozy and simple? Is it some knitwear? Is it wool, mohair? Maybe it’s some cotton or a nice linen blend? Then let’s look at your event. Nothing makes you feel more luxurious than a good quality satin piece that will quietly reflect dimmed or flashed lights and will make you look magical . If satin feels too much, try chiffon. It’s a fabric that feels like quiet luxury. It is known for its beautiful drape and will flow with you in every movement!
4. ACCESORIES
While often it is nearly impossible to find time for changing, you can always rely on accessories. Change your office bag to a clutch, wear your favourite heels, add some big earrings or play with hair accessories. In fashion, details are everything! So experiment and find whatever makes you feel good!
5. MORE DETAILS
When you have added some accessories, for a more party look try refreshing your makeup and hair. You won’t believe the magic that a red or burgundy lip can do! Try changing your hair as well- let your hair down, or if you have more time- try some cute slick back hairstyle.
