Take inspiration from these handpicked styles and dress right for this season’s celebrations
With the town all aglow in lights and parties all around, there’s no better time to play dress up.
We’ve curated four styles for you to look your best whether you’re at a countdown party or in the cosy company of loved ones.
Christmas Eve Date
Something Borrowed Landscape Fitted Dress ($29.90), Zalora Asymmetric Pumps ($34.90), and Mitju Ikat Print Clutch ($39.90)
Make waves with this statement dress, which shows off a beautiful photographic print. Cut close to the body, the dress will accentuate your figure.
Pair it with a textured clutch and a pair of nude heels that will instantly elongate your legs.
Countdown Celebrations
River Island Pink Print Mini Skirt ($74.90), Malene Birger crop top ($419), Mango Metallic Lapel Clutch ($39), and Chiara Ferrangi flats ($395)
It’s the festive season and nobody’s faulting you for piling on the glitter. But do it wrong and you could wind up resembling an over-decorated tree.
To stay classy, make the focal piece this prism print skirt and style your outfit around it. We suggest matching the skirt with a crop top in a neutral shade, then completing your outfit with a pair of flats in sparkly dark hues and a simple clutch.
Family Gathering
Coast dress ($469), Coach Saddle Bag in bordeaux (from $825), and Zalora Mix Material High Heel Sandals ($44.90)
Little black dresses never go out of style, no matter what naysayers may think. Keep it elegant and glamorous in this fringed black dress and add a subtle pop of colour with the ultimate arm candy — Coach’s iconic saddle bag.
Finish off the look with a pair of colour-block heels and you’re all set to wine and dine with your loved ones.
House Party
Matter Sideswept Dhoti ($180.31), Melissa Hotness in Black Sandals ($175), and Sensi Studio Clutch ($260)
With boisterous games and endless feasting to look forward to, you’d want to keep your look both comfortable yet stylish.
Lounge around in a pair of flowy but slightly structured pants, which pair well with everything from a fitted tube top to even a basic T-shirt. Keep it casual with a pair of chunky sandals, and stash your essentials in a geometric clutch.
