Dressing for work doesn’t have to be boring.
It also doesn’t have to be difficult.
#AllergictoAverage is anything but boring, and as we slide into the last week in December before the Christmas period. We’ve picked out 5 ways to update your work wardrobe, adding a little bit of glamour and sparkle to align with the festive season.
Shoes | Dare to Wear – GOLDilocks & The Fishnet Tootsies.
Definite eyecatchers, these gold pointed flats will add
some zing to any black tailored trouser.
I like to pair these with some fishnet socklets; adding a little bit of edginess and hiding those cold-induced veins on our feet that just love to make an appearance in the winter.

Belt | CHAINed to your Desk
Feeling like you’ve been chained to your desk, cramming before we break up for the festive period? I feel ya.
A slightly nicer association with chains is this dreamboat belt, add to a midi LBD with dark tights and a reserved hairstyle to make your waist pop.
