These days, it's also perfectly acceptable to wear a pair of trousers. Ideally, black or magnolia arethe way to go. While this is easier said than done when it comes to big companies, at least make sureto coordinate outfits among those you work closest with.

Is a more formal shindig on the cards? In this case you may indeed have to opt for a suit, but whynot jazz things up a bit by opting for a less conventional colour than black or grey? Navy, dark greenand dark red can look really effective teamed with a simple shirt and leather shoes. Alternatively, ifyou feel that might be too much of a bold statement, choose trousers and a jacket in two differenttones.

corner, most employers have come up with some idea of how to mark the end of the year and revelin the festive season. Team with simple tops in statement fabrics such as silk or velvet.

Team these with a crisp, button front shirt in either a sheer colour or a classic pattern such aschecks or polka dots.

It's a trendy and very comfortablepiece that can simply be thrown over a pair of opaque tights or leggings and accessorised with heelsor flats according to the venue and planned activities. Tight fitting or wide leg styles are both bangon trend. Choose a dress with detail like sequins, metallic thread or lace so you don't have to gooverboard with jewellery.
