Looking for the best desk to dinner styles that will take you through the day? Drama is your key shape here. A skinny or a flare, will service both needs beautifully. What you don't want is something in the middle that will be too casual for the evening. A straight leg works less well in the evening for example, so stay dramatic at either end of the leg profile spectrum.
Update your skinnies with a thin sock that is so chic with a heel, add a belt to your blazer and your dinner look is complete.
Swap your boots for a sharp pointed toe to take your desk bound flares into the night, pop the collar of your coat or blazer and you have instant funnel neck mystery.
