Wearing Evening Attire To Work

Going straight from the office to an evening affair?

If you're a woman, wear a simple dress or ensemble to work and bring accessories-earrings, bracelets, necklace, a pair of dressy shoes, and an evening wrap, such as a brightly colored shawl or silk blouse to wear as a jacket. A length of black satin ribbon, 1 1/2 to 3 inches wide, can serve as a last minute evening belt or hair tie.

The finishing touch; a showy silk tassel (you can buy one at a drapery store) attached to the zipper pull of a leather handbag.

If you're a man, wear a dark suit to work and bring a clean shirt, fresh tie, and perhaps a silk handkerchief, if that's your style. A flower in the lapel does wonders, too.
