Far too often you may find that you are hard pressed for time, and may end up going out with friends straight from work. While it is great, because you don’t lose time commuting to your home, you may be worried about making your work attire look like an informal one. Work attire can be transformed into an informal one by paying close attention to what you choose to wear, and change, in the attire. This saves you the trouble of having to carry an extra set of clothes with you to your workplace.

Before you get on with transforming work attire into informal wear, you need to be clear on what your formal wear consists on. You may choose to wear a business suit that may include pants with a jacket or a knee length skirt with a jacket. Usually black, navy, grey and red are colors commonly seen in formal office wear. Of course, the clothing you wear to work should be well tailored. Here are some great tips on transforming work attire into an informal one:

Add some color and flair
Replace your formal shirt or top with something more informal. Think brighter colors in soft fabrics, or you may even want to opt for lace or something sheer. The top will soften the impact of the attire. While you are at it, you may want to change your stockings too, and wear those that suit your informal look. If it is cold outside carry a beautiful wrap or a coat.

Shoes
Say goodbye to your office shoes and put on some strappy and sexy stiletto sandals. Your shoes will also help add some style and color to your outfit. They will give you a new found confidence and are sure to add a spring to your step.

Let’s accessorize
Conventionally formal work attire should use minimum accessories and jewelry. However, since you are opting for an informal look, consider wearing some jewelry such as a necklace, earrings or a bracelet that looks great with your outfit. Scarves are a great way to add some style to your dress. You can wear them in many different ways, including on your neck and hair. Another great way to transform your work attire is by adding a snazzy belt.

Makeup
You may usually wear minimal makeup to work. But for an informal look, do remember to carry the tools to transform your face. Depending on the occasion and the color of your clothing, transform your face and look gorgeous for the evening to come. Don’t forget to highlight your eyes and your lips. Use a blush to add glamour to your face.

The scent of a woman speaks volumes about her. You may wear a subdued fragrance to work, but it is time to now bring out that bottle of perfume that makes you feel beautiful.
