Seasonal style from head to toe

WITH the Christmas party season about to get into full swing, it’s time to revive the winter wardrobe by injecting some key essentials for the festivities ahead.
From family gatherings to New Year’s Eve parties, a staff night out to a girls’ night on the tiles, you will need a different style for each occasion.
For a classy yet respectable look for the annual staff get together, you can’t go wrong with an elegant LBD (little black dress) but for the Christmas season why not jazz it up and go for a festive colour, be it red, green or gold. You can glam up the look with patterned or printed tights, like outfit 1.
Remember, for work Christmas parties never go too much above the knee or show too much cleavage to avoid any unwanted and uncomfortable attention.
This season, no matter what the occasion, gold is a 24-carat investment. It ensures you sparkle, whether you choose to go golden in your heels, accessories or a head-to-toe ensemble, such as outfit 2.
For a more casual night on the tiles, the rock-chick look is here to stay and with it is the return of studs, which can be found on everything from heels to bags, tops, jackets and accessories, as outfit 3 shows.
To work the rock look you need just one item and that’s a biker jacket. As the cold sets in during the winter season a jacket or coat is always a solid investment, as very often it’s the one item that’s sure to be seen.
Whether worn with leggings, jeans, jeggings or a mini coupled with patterned or printed tights, a biker jacket is the piece that will finish the look and grab attention.
