We’re finally into December – although I have absolutely no idea how this year has gone so quickly – it’s the advent season and nearly time for the festivities to begin. Christmas parties, work do’s and celebrations come in abundance at this time of the year and with so many things on your to-do list, choosing a suitable outfit isn’t necessarily always at the top.
Of course, events will vary at this time of year and so, inevitably, what you wear will correspond with your plans. While a pair of black jeans and heeled boots may work nicely for an impromptu meal out, a Christmas Ball (should you be so lucky) may involve a sparkly LBD.

Many trends tend to transcend this special time of year as we see sequins, metallics and rich velvets making a much welcomed annual return. So whether you’re popping out for a few festive cocktails after work or planning an attempted fleeting visit to your work Christmas party, one party dress will often suffice between many a merry event this season.
