Ok gentleman, it’s that time of year again.

Yup. You guessed it. It’s the season of the holiday party. And today we’re going to throw you our $.02 about how to dress for the most important of holiday parties: The office holiday party.

Love ‘em or hate ‘em, office holiday parties will come around every year, regardless of your sentiments.

Our advice? Take advantage. With a rockin’ outfit to boost your confidence and an open bar to lighten the mood, you’ll be able to both rub elbows with your senior boss and tactfully approach the pretty lady you’ve been eying in the department two doors down—in the same night! How’s that for killing two birds…?

Now to get you in with the boss and the lady friend, we, at indiTailoired, have a few pointers. First, since this is a work event, there are a few key adjectives we want you to keep in mind when picking out your shirt: classy, professional, and stylish. 

Ultimately, your goal is to show that you have style, but not go too crazy with patterns and bright colors.

With that in mind, we’ve come up with a sophisticated twist to a professional office party shirt: A tight-fitted collared shirt with color and the right amount of personality. We’ve chosen a green/blue/white checked luxurious Italian fabric with a blue/white/brown check fabric for the contrast collar and cuffs to add a bit of dimension and spice. If you find yourself at a more formal affair, we fully endorse pairing this shirt with a solid color (think navy) tie and a fitted blazer to top off the look.

Just remember, when mingling with co-workers, you want a style that is festive enough to get you noticed, but not too festive to get you confused with the Christmas tree.

Take it from us, this classy shirt from indiTailored is sure to do the trick…
