Sometimes I like to grab a drink after work with my colleagues, occasionally dinner with Hubby. I’m sure if you lived somewhere cooler you would do it much more often than we do. Finding something to wear to work that fits a professional image but then transitions into night time attire can be a bit of a mission. Of course, for me, it usually means a pencil skirt.

Of course!

These peep toe heels have a wide heel that make them comfortable enough for work, no matter what the day brings but they are certainly dressy enough for night time wear. And let’s talk about the tunic top. This knit top is comfortable and soft and drapy and lovely. At the moment it is top of the list of Hubby’s favourite items in my wardrobe. Something about the combination of the pencil skirt and the soft knit is very, errr, textural. To say the least.

So put these together and you’re set for the day. Take you make-up kit to add a bit of smoky to the eyes before you leave and run a comb through your hair and hey presto, drinks with the team sorted. Sexy, dark corners of cosy restaurant with Hubby, sorted. But for goodness sake, don’t forget to pack the perfume. No one likes a stinky work type person messing up their nice dinner. HA.
