Truth be told, one of the hardest things for me to wrap my head around is going from the office to a holiday party. Most of the time there just isn’t enough time between the start of the event and me leaving work to justify going home, changing & then making my way back to wherever it is I’m going. For that reason, I try to have at least one part of my outfit be appropriate for both and then bring along everything else I need. I’m crushing hard on these velvet pants (currently 40% off) – basing my entire look around it!!
I’m a tad bit obsessed with these shoes – they also come in black, but unfortunately my size is sold out in the plaid color combo I want, so I might settle for black / white or wait for them to come back in stock!
Velvet is the fabric of the season and I love that these pants from Ann Taylor can be worn to your work holiday party or dressed up for something swanky!
I shared one LBB that I have my eye on in this post & then while scrolling instagram I spotted this one from Sole Society & love the price point as well! It actually looks like the perfect in between bag, again taking you from the office to out during the holiday season!! Any bag that can hold my large wallet without me having to pick and choose what I want to take with me is a winner in my book!
While I like to keep my “party” earrings out of sight at work, doesn’t mean they can’t make an appearance after hours – especially considering my earlobes can’t handle the heaviness all day long!
H&M is my go to for fun “going out” tops – actually last year at the last minute I got my NYE top from there! One thing my closet is seriously lacking is sequins…need to remedy that immediately! I have a this top in the long sleeved version and I just spotted that they make it in apeplum version!
Easiest way to dress up any look – a bold red lip! My favorite color is “Ruby Woo” by MAC.
What’s your go to for taking your outfit from the office to the party?

Love those festive heels–too cute. I work late so the work-to-party is definitely my life lately.
Those earrings are awesome. It they would totally weigh my ears down all day too! And ruby woo has been in favourite in my family for ages
H&M always has cute things and I love those tops! Want the one with the sleeves!
H&M really does have cute stuff. I cannot believe that peplum top is from there! I am also obsessed with those shoes — the embellished toe is just darling!

Office Christmas parties are so tough! I'm so glad mine was at 7pm and formal and they let us out at 3 so we were able to go home and get dolled up! I love those plaid and glitzy heels I wish that color wasn't sold out everywhere! Great glitzy roundup for the holiday!!

Lord have mercy those shoes!!! If the gems were a "clip on", I would buy these in a heartbeat– then they could be office chic year round!!!! Alas, they are out of my size too π
How fabulous are those shoes?! Pretty sure Carrie Bradshaw would approve. π
I love those plaid shoes and think I need them in my life!
LOVE, love, love! Especially the plaid shoes…they are so cute and I can totally see you in them. I love Ruby Woo but it's so darn uncomfortable…but you are right, a bold red lip is always a good idea!

I love this post, girl, it's so reliable because you're right, there often isn't enough time to go home and come back, so bringing some pieces to add to the work look to make it more party appropriate is often the only option. That said, I love all the pieces you've shared here, all of which are festive and perfect for a party! I love H&M tops for the holiday's too, they tend to have such cute embellished tops that are so festive! Thanks so much for sharing, beautiful, and I hope you're having the best week so far!

Love your choices! One word of warning about velvet pants….I had (and loved) them back in the day as you love them now….but….they are HOT (as in not sexy hot, well, they ARE "sexy hot"), but they are HOT, HOT, HOT in temperature. If you run cold they are great, if you run hot, they aren't!!!!!! xoxoxo catchatwithcarenandcody
I always struggled putting together outfits for holiday office parties. This is awesome inspiration!

I'm loving all things velvet this season, too! Those pants are amazing!
I love plaid shoes, I would rock them in flats.
Great picks! I love fun holiday earrings. I think they make the outfit pop!
Those shoes are SO fun! And obsessed with both of those tops. I doubt either would fit my big belly though haha!!
Those shoes are too fun!! And I'm loving the peplum top
It's so fun velvet is in style again! I love the top, too!
Velvet pants! Can't wait to see if you get some! And those shoes are so cute! I never wear heels anymore but I still think they're super girly and cute π
Loving this from office to party outfit idea! I love how there are so many festive styles of trousers now. Love the velvet pants too!

It really is way too hard to go home and change for a holiday party after work! I love your idea of wearing something that's easy to dress up quickly, and wearing red lips is the perfect way to do just that!
I love that peplum top and think that I would like it even more if it was long sleeved. I def agree that a red lip def screams holiday party. I barely wear red lip but when I do its usually for a special occasion.
loving those plaid heels! fun picks!

Those shoes are gorgeous!! I agree, a purse needs to be able to hold my wallet and transition for multiple occasions!
Those pumps are so cute! And I love the earrings.
Transition outfits are always tricky but I think you nailed it love how the red velvet pants pairs with the peplum top! So festive and classy AND would look fabulous on you!
