As the work parties come into sight, it can be difficult to know what to wear to impress your colleagues. Not going too over the top, but with simple ideas on what to wear, you can be the fashionista of your office.

Suit up

Seemingly the simplest but probably one of the harder outfits to go for, the female suit. Wear it correctly and you could be swiftly moving from desk to cocktail bar in no time at all. Let them know you’re here for business with this suit from ASOS. Wear with stilettos and there, perfection.

Mixing patterns

Dare to try it, for the first timers it can be daunting looking at two completely separate patterns and having to marry them, but trust in the power of diversity, it works. Try out these cigarette pants.

Leather

It doesn’t just have to be in shoes and bags, no, leather has taken over wardrobes everywhere by storm, and wearing a leather pencil skirt to your work party would be the perfect twist on the normal pencil, adding a playful side to it. Mix with a black tee and you’re set. Check this out from ASOS.

Shift dress

They’re everywhere, but it takes a good eye to find one that really suits. Try going for a loud pattern to celebrate the festivities in style. Try this out from Dorothy Perkins, pair with some black heels and that’s your outfit sorted.

BE jewelled

Shiny, shimmering, bright, where is there to go wrong with that? Either keep it simple on top or if you’re willing to go all out, add in another pattern too. Simple suede heels will suit this from Three Floor perfectly.

So if you’re stuck for ideas on what to wear for your work party, then don’t be shy and experiment with patterns, colours and materials to find an outfit that really will make you the belle of the office ball.
