Planning a party look is a lot of fun, however whilst you might want to sparkle during the festive season no doubt you would like to look the party princess not the pantomime dame. Balancing the bling of all that glitters when it comes to Christmas party looks requires just a couple of golden rules.
Firstly, remember you are dressing yourself not decorating the Christmas tree. Secondly red and green worn together is to be avoided unless you are officially one of Santa’s helpers!

PARTY FROCKSThis season the colour to choose for your party frock is red or gold. Luckily when it comes to dresses anything goes, whether short or midi or maxi with a bustier neckline or long sleeved, you can find any item to suit your body shape. |
 |
COVER UPWraps, shrugs or jackets can be worn to cover up arms if you are worried about showing too much flesh. Faux fur or lace are this seasons hot favourites. |
 |
jumpsuitsIf you don’t want to wear a dress then the jumpsuit is bang on trend and it will make you look very current and youthful! Most of the jumpsuits are in black which gives you lots of choice to find the right fit. We love this crème de la crepe v neck jumpsuit. BUY NOW from French Connection at House of Fraser

the lbd!If you are going to wear black because you think it makes you look slimmer then conversely black can make you look older. Make sure you choose a fabulous fabric that adds lustre. Satin, velvet and chiffon will all create a tactile dimension to a traditional black dress. Also sequins and lace give an added oomph to the black dress. BUY NOW from Coast at John Lewis

 |
colourful tightsIf you choose a black dress you can make it look more youthful with the addition of colourful tights and a shoe boot or choose the classical tanned bare legs with glitzy sandals.
|
 |
finishing touchesEqually your make up should be applied to add glow rather than glitz. Soft smokey eyes with sheer glossy lips will create a smouldering look. If you choose red lips try to keep the rest of your make up very natural and choose a more plum base red for the evening. |
 |
accessorizing...When it comes to accessorizing this festive season then keep it simple by adding drop earrings or a cocktail ring. |
 |
shoesAnd there is nothing like hitting the dance floor to inject a youthful glow! What about these for adding fairy dust to your feet! |
