Along with fire drill and sports days, birthdays at the office are a sure shot spirit dampener. Firstly, you cannot treat yo’ self the way you’d imagined all year (unless your office pampers you with manicures and cocktails). Secondly, heading to your birthday bash in meh-inducing office clothes can hit the snooze button on festivities like nothing else!
Having trouble squeezing in a quick change before your party? Fortunately, there are a ton of stylish outfits you can curate for work that, later, you can rock for birthday drinks. From chic metallic dresses to party-worthy co-ord sets, here are some chic birthday outfits to take you from AM to PM and beyond!
1. Striped Excellence
This striped birthday number will sail you through work and make you more than ready dinner with the family later. Just a few additions, like statement earrings and an evening bag. Also, we recommend a strappy block heel, to keep your feet comfy and stylish all day, with it!
