Christmas party outfit 2013

Christmas is my favourite time of year, so I thought I'd do another Christmas party outfit post like last year!

My work decided to go for a meal and disco this year for Christmas which was lovely and my boyfriend came along with me! The meal was delicious and the disco was so fun, it was a great evening.
 

I am planning on posting a separate, more in-depth post on my makeup, hair and nails for the Christmas party, so please let me know if that is something you would like to see!

Discos usually get quite warm, so I decided to go for a top and jacket rather than a jumper, therefore if I got too hot I could take my jacket off! My top is from Monki which I bought about a year ago now. It's really lightweight and floaty which I like.

My jacket is from Primark and I really like it. I think it looks like a casual blazer which was perfect for the meal. The colours went well with my top and it kept me nice and warm.

I decided to pair this all with my velvet skater skirt from Topshop. This is exactly the same skirt I wore to my Christmas party last year! I think velvet is quite festive and the skirt is very comfy to wear.

It was really cold outside so I decided to wear black tights. I was going to wear nude but they were so thin, whereas my black ones are warm and thick!

For shoes I went for my nude patent Kurt Geiger heels. I like wearing these for meals as they are low enough for me to walk in and I think they look smart and nice. I don't think black tights and nude shoes always look that good together but I was too cold for nude tights!

Finally for jewellery I wore my everyday bracelets and my little owl necklace. I don't wear necklaces very often but I think this one is really cute and dainty. I also took a little black clutch bag which I forgot to photograph!

 

I hope you are all having a wonderful day and are looking forward to Christmas tomorrow! I will post my Christmas day outfit soon. Let me know if you went to a Christmas party and what you wore, as I'd love to know.

Christmas Party Outfit

Hello! I asked on my Twitter and Facebook if you would like to see a Christmas party outfit and I got lots of people saying they would so here it is! 

It is a little late up considering my Christmas party was two weeks ago now, but I hope you wont mind! On the evening of the party I was really rushed so I didn't get chance to take photos then which is why it's a little late as I have dressed up again to take these! 

I decided to wear this flowery lace top from Wallis which I have had for a few years now! It's really pretty and can be easily dressed up or down.

The lace top is see through so underneath I just paired it with a plain black vest top. Ideally I would have worn a white or cream one but I couldn't find mine so I just wore black! Mine are from Newlook and I find them comfy and they aren't expensive!

The skirt I bought from Topshop is a black, velvet skater style skirt. I love these styles of skirt as they are so comfy and like the top, easy to dress up and down. I tucked my top into my skirt as it looked a lot more flattering!

For shoes I wore my Kurt Geiger Carvela patent nude heels. This was the first time I have actually worn these shoes and I love them! They are extremely comfy and so easy to walk in.

I was looking for a patent nude clutch bag to match my shoes but I couldn't find one, so I used a black one I already had. This is from Primark and it is a lovely, simple black clutch with gold metal edging. It fits quite a lot in as well which is great as I always take many more items and products than I actually need!

For jewellery I kept it very simple and just wore two bracelets which I wear everyday anyway. (Haha I saw that, yet I forgot to put them on for the photos!) The first one is this gorgeous rose gold friendship style bracelet from Monica Vinader. I paired this with my favourite bracelet which is my Pandora ivory, leather double wrap bracelet!

I hope you have enjoyed this post! If you have posted any festive outfit posts then please link them below as I would love to see them!
