From work to play

Holiday parties are soon going to be a norm in your schedule and you will be staring in your closet and asking yourself, "What am I going to wear?" Here are some great outfits that will take you from work to play with minimal effort AND minimal cost. Simply raid your closet for one of the following items: a black or gray sheath dress, a pair of black slacks or a black pencil skirt and you are good to go.

1. The Dress Diva--This is a choice you can never go wrong with. A dress that communicates both sexiness and sophistication is always a winner. Best part? This dress looks great on every body type. Office appropriate and party friendly, simply switch your work shoes for some sexy heels and you're good for a night out on the town.

Favorite accessories: a metallic skinny belt, red pumps and an embellished cardigan.

2. The Party Pants--With this choice, it is all about the top. For something you can wear to the office and a party, a safe bet is a ruffled blouse. For extra class, wear a ruffled tuxedo shirt.

Favorite accessories: Skip the necklace and opt for a flashy bracelet and earrings. I love J. Crews options this season, but for a more budget friendly bet, head to Target. They have a great selection of fashionable accessories for prices that won't leave you crying.

3. The Skirty Flirt: This is definitely the most versatile choice. You can do the same as you would with pants. You also can opt for glam and pair with a black top for a faux sheath dress style. Or, my personal fave, put on a gray turtleneck (so trendy this season!) and a long necklace.

Favorite accessories: Red lipstick and peep toe pumps in ANY color. If you have a long neck, wear your hair down with soft waves. If your neck is shorter, wear your hair up in a messy bun.

Now, ladies, you have NO excuse! Wear this for a night out on the town or for everyday. Sexy and stylish and versatile.
