As we officially enter into the Christmas week, we are pretty sure that some of you (like us) are still struggling to find that perfect outfit to wear on the millions of occasions on Christmas Day. Here are some ideas on what to wear for Christmas Mass, a work Christmas do, Christmas lunch, Christmas dinner or a Christmas party with some tips on how to look stylish with the Christmas party season now in full swing.

For A Christmas Eve Party
It's pretty much the sparkliest day of the year, after New Year's Eve so if you’re going for a Christmas party, pick an outfit with a metallic finish or sparkly sequins details like this gorgeous dress below. Try coupling a silvery grey dress with a pair of super sexy red pumps for that oomph factor or an emerald green dress with gold heels. Steer clear of black and dare yourself with some color and sparkles this season.
We also advice to wear something some stretchy. You may be getting glammed up for Christmas but let’s just face it this is the day where your diet is going out the window and you’re going to be stuffing your face with all the yummy treats – so you need to wear something in which you can enjoy without becoming conscious of your tummy! This sequins dress is both flattering and forgiving and will ensure your secret is kept hidden.
And lastly pack a pair of roll up flats, need we say more?

For Christmas Mass
We’ll admit Christmas Mass is almost like a fashion parade and although you may want to show off your pins or the figure you’ve been working for in the last 6 months you do need to wear something conservative yet flattering. This red lace dress is just that! Or doll up in luxe fabric dress and amp up the outfit with statement accessories.

For A Christmas Lunch
Christmas brunch or lunch is usually spent with the family and that calls for something cozy yet striking enough to get you compliments.
Adding a tiny amount of sparkle with some little rings or necklaces makes the outfit a little more special, and equates for the perfect transitional outfit in case your meeting your friends for Christmas drinks after (as they say the party never stops on Christmas day).
Another tip to distract everyone from fact that you had to suck in your stomach (after gorging on all the food and sweets) is with a dazzling neckpiece or a high-waisted dress.


For A Christmas Work Do
Ensure you wear something cute, comfortable and versatile like a peter pan collared dress. You can go from wearing it from day to night, so whatever time you're out with your friends this outfit will suit all occasions, smart or more relaxed. It equally has a subtle amount of festiveness with the luxe fabric and some statement rings can add a little festive touch! For a formal yet fun look pair your favorite black LBD with a sparkly blazer. This is one fail safe idea if you’re running short of time to shop.

For A Christmas Dinner
Tis the season for festive Christmas meals! If you're like us, they're starting this weekend and it's not unheard of to have a lunch or brunch in the day and another gathering in the evening. Our best advice is to avoid wearing anything too restricting around your middle. Chances are you are going to feel stuffed from Christmas dinner, so wearing anything restricting could make you feel uneasy and uncomfortable. Instead hide your middle with a peplum top or dress and you never have to worry about your middle.


Alternatively, go for dresses or skirts with shimmery fabrics that will stand out in the tons of photos that will be clicked. High-waisted skirts with an embellished cardigan look adorable and will help you hide your middle. Don’t forget to carry your flats in case the family ends up jiving through the night.
