Transition Pieces From Work To Play
Happy Friday! As is the case with most weeks, by the time Friday comes around I am so ready for the weekend! The weekdays are a great opportunity for me to be organized, productive, and in my routine. These are all things that I value because they keep me sane and they also provide a roof over my head :). But its all about finding a healthy balance. Having some me time, some date time, and some adventure time is what the weekends are for!
Since we still have to work during the day on Fridays my boyfriend and I usually end up spending Friday nights checking out the town, having a nice dinner, or some other form of a date. I usually don’t feel like getting ready all over again by the time I get off work so its great to have a transitional outfit that can work from day to night. This dress is the perfect piece for transitioning! It is actually one of my favorite pieces of all time. I’ve worn it for parties, long car rides, shopping days, and everything in between! I think it cost me somewhere around 12 dollars and it is so flattering and even better, SO COMFY!
In this series I have styled it for a date night look but its perfect for work paired with a cardigan and some flats! In order to spice up the dress for more of a night time look I have paired it with these fun perplex booties, ditched the cardigan, and threw on the black mesh choker and hoops. I usually don’t carry a purse around but for date night looks I think that a bag brings the whole look together and makes me feel a tad more dressed up!
This was my personal take on a day to night look that is perfect from work to the bistro, with only tweaking a few accessories. However, there is tons of way to achieve this transition from day to night with staple pieces. For example, a pair of dark wash skinny jeans are great for date night and the work place, depending on your place of work’s dress code of course. Pairing the jeans with flats and a flannel during the work day is great. Then when you get home throw on some heels, a tank, and a leather jacket and you’re ready for date night!
There is tons of ways to style your clothes from day to night. This makes its so much easier to get through the work day and head to something more leisurely and enjoyable without having to deal with the hassle of picking out two completely different outfits. I hope you enjoyed this trick! Have a great weekend!
