Not too long ago, we gave you advice on how to find the perfect lipstick for any occasion. As we put it, your lipstick is the icing on the cake - the final piece of your outfit that brings it all together. 

But, what about the actual cake? All the outfit that goes on before the lipstick? You can't exactly show up to a friend's party wearing your birthday suit, even if have the perfect lipstick on (Note: exception to this is the nudist party). So we have a few perfect outfits for any occasion to take the guess work out of it! 

Casual Workplace


Wear: A colourful or patterned sweater/bottom (or if you're brave enough, both!) to show off personality with a basic button down underneath. Pair with comfortable shoes and a practical bag.
