It’s almost that time of year again when a scroll through your diary makes you look like a professional partygoer. A pub lunch here, a festive cocktail there, a couple of work parties, and before you know it, you’re all booked up. We’re not complaining, though, especially when 2020 was such a flop in terms of festivities, to put it mildly. The Christmas party season really is the best excuse to go all out when it comes to dressing up. Sparkly earrings and platform sandals? Sure. Metallic gold boots for lunch? Why the hell not? Top it all off with glitter manicures and a blow-dry, and we’re glad of the opportunity to indulge our inner partier. 

Showgoer wears drop sparkle earrings, red knit cardigan, pink metallic trousers.

Style Notes: If the dress code is black-tie then it’s time to pull out all stops. With no such think as OTT, more is more is the rule to follow. Keep it sleek, though, and follow a colour palette just like Chrissy in her monochrome ensemble fit for a ball.
