7 Ways to Quickly Turn a Woman's Office Look into a Bar-Smashing Look

In films, a scene where the heroine is preparing for some important event is popular. She goes through outfits for a long time, changes clothes a million times, consults with her friends... In real life, such fees are a luxury. Often people go to a party, date, corporate event directly from the office. Therefore, it is necessary to find compromises between the requirements dress code (albeit internal, not written on paper) and the desire to look like the star of the party.

But you can just take a few things from home with you that will help you quickly turn a strict look into a smart one. Here are some ways. They can be used one at a time or take note of several at once.

1. change top

Office shirts usually look modest and conservative. But if you replace the top with something with sequins, feathers or acid color, a trouser suit or a strict pencil skirt play with new colors.

But this option is also worth considering. Especially if you have a dress code lax and you can immediately pick up the top with a hint of fun - for example, wear a tank top in linen style or a satin blouse with an unusual cut.

But a black suit and boiled white shirt able to transform due to jewelry, as the brightness of jewelry will manifest itself as much as possible.

Life hack: for a greater effect of relaxation and solemnity, unbutton your blouse deeper and roll up your sleeves if you plan to take off your jacket.

4. Take a tiny bag

Frankly speaking, this step is not self-sufficient. One replacement of the bag usually does not transform the outfit. But a huge trunk, which can fit a picture, a basket, a cardboard box and a small dog, is not associated with the holiday. Therefore, it is better to leave the familiar and practical model in the office and replace it with something that only fits a smartphone and lipstick. This is not very convenient, but it definitely lets others know that you have come to have fun.

When choosing a handbag, check that your device fits there, otherwise manufacturers have their own ideas about modern gadgets. In some clutches nothing fits.

In order for tights or stockings to change the image, you will have to do without half measures. Dense warm ones, even colored ones, will not work: they will only make the office outfit a little more unusual. But thin models with bright patterns, sequins, rhinestones and other embellishments will work great.

Life hack: before buying tights, think about how the pattern in reality will look on the leg from all sides and distances. For example, small blue or red flowers from afar can be perceived as a skin disease or phlebeurysm. And this is not quite the effect that you want to get.

Life hack: it is better to use a long-lasting lipstick that hardens after application. It may not feel as comfortable as cream. But on the other hand, you don’t have to constantly run to the mirror to check its condition. It is worth considering that even persistent cosmetics lose their qualities when in contact with fat.

Life hack: carefully read on the jar whether a particular glitter can be applied to the eyelids. If this is not indicated, it is best to avoid areas where sequins may get into your eyes.
