Beijo is Taking You From Desk To Night

We women? Are busy. Period. And sometimes (or often times, rather), we don’t even have the extra minutes to eat, let alone spiffy ourselves up for some night time fun! To give you wonderful ladies a break, here are some simple and Beijo-able tips to keep you looking your best, from desk to night!

Transitioning from an office look to a date-night outfit isn’t as hard as it sounds. It actually only requires minimal tweaks and adjustments. Think of pieces in your wardrobe that are versatile and moldable, such as a dress. A dress’s look and feel can be instantly manipulated with a simple switch in accessories and outerwear. Take off your jacket or cardigan, swap out a piece or two of jewelry, shake out those roots, and you’re out the building!

Keep the accessorizing to a simple and neutral zone. We chose nude and gold to give other colors a chance to pop. Also, don’t be afraid to mix and match! Think about the color wheel and use that 3rd grade art class to your advantage. Orange and green are on opposite sides of the spectrum, making a beautifully harmonizing palette.

For our desk look, we chose a structured and contrasting blazer, our structured and powerful Over the Moon bag in Barely Beige, and classic nude pumps. We threw in a clean gold watch to complete the look, so you’ll never be late for the night.

For our night look, we decided to throw off that blazer, opted for our The Envelope Please clutch, and sassed it up with some nude strappy heels. The peach earrings add a nice touch without being too over-powering.

Now you’re set, girls! Off you go to your favorite date spot! Don’t forget to show us your favorite Desk to Day look on Instagram with hashtag #beijobags.

Class is a Girl’s Best Friend

Trends come and go, but class is a girl’s best friend! Remember to consider quality and longevity when shopping to get the most bang for your buck. Here are more of our Beijo-able tips for some of the key pieces every woman should have in their wardrobe.

• The White Tee
  The most basic of essentials. It can be casual, dressy and always chic. It may be the most understated piece, but know, that it can also transform your look from relaxed to sexy. Look for light-weight, sturdy fabrics such as cotton when shopping for this MUST-HAVE.
• The Black Tank
  Incognito yet powerful and has more uses than 34850934. Pair it with dark jeans or a skirt to dress it up, or opt for a more relaxed weekend look by throwing on your man’s jeans and flip flops. This little friend can also come in handy for tops too sheer to wear alone. When purchasing your black tank, make sure to check the length and fit to ensure you get the most use. Lucky for us, these are very accessible and affordable!
• The White Button-down
  The refined cousin of the White Tee. Basic, but the ultimate chameleon, as it shifts from being a beach cover-up to a sexy addition to your party ensemble. Let your legs do the talking and pair it with cute shorts or skirts for any occasion. Going on a Playdate with your kiddos? Throw on some jeans, studded sandals, and you’re ready to go. You may want to look for two different fits - the light-weight and relaxed; structured and body forming. Look for chiffon, cotton or silk blends.
• The Cardigan
  Throw it on and go! The ultimate piece to keep you looking smart and chic. A simple cardigan with a pop of color can instantly change your look. Also look for different fits and lengths, colors and textures to help mimic your mood. Fitted and structured for those take-charge kind of days; flowy and long for those breezy afternoons.
• The Perfect Jeans
  The no-brainer. You can pair it with almost anything and everything, as WE redefine the mom-jeans. It’s worth paying the extra bucks for the pair PERFECT for your body. The safest style? The dark wash Bootcut made from stretch denim. It’ll keep show off your curves while still maintaining its shape.
• Little Black Dress
  LBD. The secret passed down from generations to generations. Whether you’re going to a fancy cocktail party or a weekend outing with the girls, the little black dress will never steer you wrong. Simple, elegant and ultra flattering for any body-type. Switch up your look with a few accessories and shoes, and you’re good to go!
• The Go-To Bag
  The ultimate holder of all your secrets. This bag will really become your best friend, so choose wisely. Choose one that is effortless, sturdy, and will never go out of style. We say - try out our Sleek Transition! Its elegant, yet fun! Perfect for any occasion as its roomy medium size makes for an easy day of shopping, and its classic exterior can dress up any outfit for a night out on the town.
