10 Dec Cubicle Chic: 3 Ways To Add Sparkle To Your Work Wardrobe

Maybe it’s the jovial atmosphere or the increased acceptability of sequins in the workplace, but the holiday season is truly the most wonderful time of the year. With shining stars adorning the tops of trees, why not add some of that sparkle to your work wardrobe?

While sequins are fun, sometimes they can be a bit too much for daytime. However, we have three looks that are great for the office holiday party, after work or just humming carols at your desk. These outfits add the right amount of pizzazz without being too over the top.

Sweater / Pants / Earrings / Bag / Shoes

This J. Crew Factory sweater gives you just the right combination of classic work wear and holiday sparkle. Pair with grey pants and tack on bonus points with sparkly heels from Express. To finish off this winter wonderland look, try a textured handbag and dainty bow earrings {less than $9 from JCPenney}.

Shirt / Skirt / Earrings / Bag / Shoes

Continue to spread cheer with this colorful outfit. Start with a sequin striped skirt and add a flowy red blouse from H&M. Round it off with nude pumps and dramatic drop earrings. For that holiday punch, try a green studded bag.

Shirt / Pants / Necklace / Bag / Shoes

Lastly, for a conservative yet glitzy look, dazzle your coworkers in these sparkling flats with an adorable bow detail. Add in more holiday cheer with a Steve Madden statement necklace and a bow bag by Betsey Johnson for less than $60! A simple satin top and black pants balance out the otherwise dainty outfit.
