Burgundy Midi Dress, Wine Wrap Coat, Rose Ballet Flat, Chocolate Leather Tote, Rose Silk Scarf. A smart combination for office holiday party in temperate weather, with the lightest colour sitting closest to your face.
The office party is the one night you can push a little. Keep the base smart and let one festive piece, a texture or a deep colour, do the celebrating. Mild weather is forgiving: a light layer that comes on and off is usually all you need. The women's read of this day is usually one considered piece with quieter support around it, rather than several competing ideas.
- One festive piece only; keep the rest of the outfit serious.
- Carry a layer for the evening drop.
- Choose one deliberate detail, a colour, a texture or a print, and keep the rest plain.
