Bonjour lecteurs! The festivities are approaching fast. What will you wear for the occasion? I love a bit of glam and sparkle, and Christmas is truly l’excuse parfaite to dress up. If you haven’t found the perfect party outfit yet, here are some idées for you to feel très spéciale. Create the Perfect Party Season Look With Very UK in a few steps.
The LBD
The little black dress, or LBD, for the fashionistas out there, is making a big comeback this season on the podiums. From velvet to sequins, it’s the shade of the year to create the base for your party-season toolkit. Who said that black was out and too serious?
Whatever style you go for, a black midi dress to a longer number, you will feel très élégante. Wherever you spend Christmas, in a posh location or in the comfort of your home, you will certainly make an impression with a black dress.
Nowadays, people love to be sustainable with fashion. The days of buying something you will only wear once and then forget about are long gone. So you want to purchase an investment piece. Something you can wear for the festive season, but also later on.
Personnellement, I love a bit of oh la la, so I went for a beautiful Monsoon Maxi dress. The rushed waist is parfait for curvy girls. It creates a very elegant silhouette while staying comfy at all times. Le détail top: the touch of satin on the side detail with a glitzy trim. J’adore!
Faux-Fur Coat
To glam up my outfit and create the perfect season look with Very UK, I added this stunning faux-fur coat. I immédiatement fell in love with this in-house design.
Faux-fur jackets are THE thing this season. They are everywhere; you can’t escape it and you will be crazy not to succumb. Not only it keeps you warm under any party dress you may have chosen, but it’s also so glam!
I absolutely LOVE this embellished faux-fur jacket in black. It’s so versatile and I can wear with with other dresses. But I did not want a boring coat either. You need to stand out during the festivities and it’s all about tactile textures this year. This jacket is le choix parfait with its diamante embellished front. It looks ever so feminine.
If you decide to invest into a faux-fur coast, select a timeless chic design like this one. You will want to wear it all the time: over a dress when you are out partying, but also with a pair of jeans next time you catch up with your girlfriends. Very UK has so many cute styles and a budget-friendly selection too.
A Bold Bag
Don’t be shy when it’s about the perfect party season. If anything, it’s THE time of the year when you can really over-dress and go for glam pieces. For partywear, I usually like to go all out and buy one statement piece or go for un look plus classique.
This combo black dress with black faux-fur is a winning look, but you need to glam it up with the right accessories.
After all, there is nothing better than sparkly touches to say ‘party time’. To add some structure to your outfit, go bold with your handbag. You can either go for for a bright colour like red or pink. Or opt for a full look with glitters. I added this beautiful silver pouch to match the diamante on the jacket and the glitzy trim from the dress. Oh la la!
Sparkly Accessories
Go further by adding sparkly jewellery. The perfect party season look needs some glitters.
Plus, it adds a bit of colours to any monochrome outfit. Diamond are your best friends, fake or real bien sûr…
A bracelet, a ring or even some earrings, diamonds really upscale any outfit. Or you can also wear pearls if you want something a bit more distingué. It’s effortless, yet a winning look.
But you can also have fun with a pair of timeless sunglasses. A black pair of shades always add up une touche d’élégance.
Shoes
As for shoes, it’s up to you. Go for comfort, especially if you know you will be dancing all nights. That’s why I wore those cute black mid-heeled shoes. They heels might be less than 5 cm, but the ribbon at the front really does all the work.
It’s feminine and timeless. Plus, once more, I will be comfy at all time. The pointy shape is also great to elongate your silhouette. So you look taller without having to wear uncomfortable shoes all night. I don’t know about you, but I can’s be bothered with high heels anymore.
Une autre alternative? You can also go for sparkly boots or some sleek silver low heels.
It would complete the look and match the bag. Le concept est simple, whatever shade your bag is, choose the same colour with your footwear.
Make-Up
Last but not least, don’t be scared to be out there with your make-up. I usually don’t wear much. But during the festive season, I would always make a better effort.
My top 5?
- Start with a usual base, add up a bit of blush to give some structure
- Use some glittery eye shadow to sparkle on the dancefloor
- Finish with a coloured mascara. I always get comments when I wear my blue mascara, it’s so bright and different
- La touche finale for a glam look? A red lipstick will always do the trick. It screams French chic and it goes so well with anything
- Finish with a stunning fragrance et voilà!
As for your nails, do whatever you fancy. There so many cool designs out there. I went for a French manicure. What can I say, it’s in my blood…But I also love a glittery nail polish or a classique red. You can never go wrong with either option.
