DESK TO DRINKS

Multitasking often becomes the most prized skill in your growing resume. Your day is no longer limited to the hours between clocking in and out. You might start with a breakfast meeting or a yoga class, and even though you long for a quiet evening with Netflix and night serum, your social life may come knocking to ruin those plans once in a while.

 

With a to-do list that seems to multiply itself when you aren't looking, putting together outfits for work and for dinner plans can feel overwhelming. Fortunately, this is where your multitasking skills come to shine. Instead of having a bag stashed under your desk for a complete outfit change, make your wardrobe work as hard as you do.

 

Nail the art of creating double-duty looks with our handy edit of the best desk-to-drink pieces that deserve a spot in your closet.

 

Begin with a silhouette that offers all-day comfort, like an A-line shape. To transition seamlessly into the evening, choose details that add sophistication, such as unique colors, textured fabrics, and elegant necklines that exude after-hours refinement.

 

This is the piece that can instantly elevate any outfit. Whether you prefer timeless or contemporary cuts, choose a blazer that's impeccably tailored in a neutral hue to maximize your style options. A well-chosen blazer adds polish to everything, from dresses to knitwear and even denim.

 

Even the simplest top can have day-to-night potential when made from a lustrous material or in a head-turning color. Dramatic touches, like shimmery metallic trims or a polished sleeveless silhouette, can be discreetly hidden under a jacket or sweater for the office, then stylishly showcased after hours.

 

hankfully, gone are the days when you needed to slip into a dress in order to look chic at work during the day and even chicer to party at night. So, if you’re a pants girl, by all means, wear pants. They’re as comfy as they are professional and can be pleasantly surprising in the office or even on a date.

 

This is it: the skirt that will reach for a million times over. The Michelle skirt is a one-piece workhorse that is as elegant as it is functional. Did we mention it has pockets? It has pockets!

 

While you rush to fill your calendars, effortlessly transition your wardrobe with these must-have pieces that will do all the work for you (at least style-wise). At the heart of all your desk-to-drinks endeavors is versatility―the magic word that can double the potential of your wardrobe before your eyes.
