Don’t Wear A Desk-To-Dinner Dress,
But An After-Work Party Dress.
Yes it’s true and indeed it’s practical to wear a desk-to-dinner dress, for most of the year.
But there are certain times of the year when you really do want to change from work modus to after-work modus, and from business wear to something joyously festive.
Put On Your Glad Rags: An After-Work Party Outfit
December is one of those times where you can be sparkly, lacy, frothy and a little over-the-top without worrying too much.
So choose an after-work cocktail or party outfit.
After all, it’s Christmas!
A Little Black Dress will always fit into an evening occasion.
And this year, one of my favourites features lace.
You can’t go wrong with a little touch of metallic in December too.
So my second dress features lamé.
As the lace or lamé will be the star of the show, keep accessories chic and low key.

Black lace dress, Hugo
Chain clutch, Stella McCartney
Black suede pumps, Manolo Blahnik
Black and lame cocktail dress, Alice + Olivia
Trousers can also be perfect for an after-work Party.
Trousers can look just as elegant as a dress.
It’s a question of balance and I recommend a top or jacket in a feminine style and fabric.

If you prefer to wear more colour with your black, choose traditional Christmas red, elegant navy or dare to be fashion-forward with dusky mauve.
