3. Thin strap dresses

Looking for a dress that can work for the office and also for drinks with the girls - or bae - then this is the one!

For the office, you can keep things work-appropriate by wearing a blouse underneath the thin strap midi dress as pictured below.

You can also wear a jacket over the dress or belt a blouse over it as well.

4. Lace-infused ankara dress

This is one way to keep things classy while serving boss babe vibes.

This elbow-length-sleeved dress with lace trimming is perfection redefined especially with the midi length it came in.

However, it is important to go for high-quality fabrics to avoid colours staining the white lace. Or you can opt for a different colour of the lace.

5. Solid and print

Mixing ankara fabrics with solid colours are always a winner, especially with vibrant prints like the one Ariyike has on in the photo below.

Here, the fashionista pairs her lovely skirt with a long-sleeved turtleneck top.

These styles will certainly have you looking like a true fashion queen at your office!
