Hands up who finds it hard transitioning their outfit from office daytime to Friday evening drinks? It's not always easy to wear the same outfit, but way quicker than going home to change is changing a few elements to make it bar/pub appropriate!
Earlsfield Dandelion Shirt Dress from T.M. Lewin
Mansfield Black Textured Jacket from T.M. Lewin
Gianvito Rossi 85 Pumps
Saint Laurent Sac De Jour Small Tote
NARS Audacious Lipstick - Raquel
Burberry Leather Biker Jacket
TopShop Double Circle Drop Earrings
Saint Laurent Fringed Bag
MAC Lipstick Russian Red
The transitional style from office to bar would be to keep the dress and shoes and to change the jacket and accessories. I am a firm believer that jewellery and a bag can compactly change an outfit and turn it from one event to another and I think this is a perfect example! By exchanging the cropped jacket for the leather biker jacket, it add a little 'toughness' to an otherwise, quite formal dress. Also, a change in lip colour can completely change, not only the outfit, but the way you feel!
Aldgate Navy Italian Wool 2-Button Slim Fit Suit from T.M. Lewin
Non-Iron White Oxford Slim Fit Shirt from T.M. Lewin
Navy Pink Spot Silk Tie from T.M. Lewin
Burberry Leather Belt
The Cufflink Factory Navy Cats Eye Cufflinks
Hugo Boss C-Drespri Plain Toe Oxfords
Fred Perry Bomber Jacket
RayBan Original Aviator Sunglasses
Saint Laurent Classic Wallet
First off, how nice is this suit from T.M Lewin?! It looks so smart while still looking stylish, which also makes it perfect for both the office and after work drinks. They have a huge collection of suits for all occasions, be that a friend's wedding or family picnic, with T.M. Lewin's selection of suits, you will be spoilt for choice! The 'office/day' look is very classical of what you would wear in that environment, with the suit, smart black shoes and cufflinks, which I feel add a little more luxury to the look. For the evening look, I would loose the tie and suit jacket and exchange it for a bomber jacket, which isn't only bang on trend right now, but also give a relaxed feel to the look. Also, when going for after work drinks you wallet is going to be on show, so you might as well have a good one!
How would you style an outfit from Friday office to after work drink?
