Whether it’s for a festive dinner party, dancing around the kitchen or your Christmas Day look, these are the party pieces to wear.
Gather around, for it’s time to get festive and talk about Christmas.
We’ve spent enough time in comfy loungewear and pyjamas in recent years, so we don’t need much of an excuse to get dressed up, and there’s no better reason than the festive season. Whether you’re having a party in the kitchen with your housemates or dancing around the lounge with your live-in loved ones, the Stylist fashion team has created a chic edit of pieces you’ll want to wear for the occasion – from statement sequins and satin to sparkly jewels and swishy skirts.
Follow fashion influencer Ellie from @slipintostyle’s lead and brighten up the house with clashing glossy shades of purple and ochre and a hint of sparkly rhinestones. ‘More is more’ applies in party season, so make the most of it and go all out. The failsafe way to dress is by mixing premium fabrics such as satin, organza and sequins with gorgeous jewellery and rich wintry hues.
For further inspiration look to actor Tracee Ellis Ross, who demonstrated how to get the perfect at-home Insta snap with her extra sequin, feather and heels ensemble in the bath. The best part about getting dressed up to stay in is you don’t have to wait for a taxi home, the fridge is nearby at all times and if your heels hurt, you can kick them off in exchange for your trusty slippers.

Jigsaw velvet suit
There’s no doubt about it, a chic suit will always look effortlessly stylish. Considering it’s the festive season, a velvet or sequin style is the duo of choice, and we love this rich glossy purple version from Jigsaw.
Mango satin trousers with stretch waist
If you’re hosting a dinner party or heading to one, then jeans are not the answer. Instead, switch them for a pair of stretch-waist satin trousers that look effortlessly chic and allow you to sit at the festive table in comfort.
Astrid & Miyu Gleam crystal drop earrings
Accessorising your ears is an easy way to take most outfits straight into party season. Wearing a white shirt and jeans? Add sparkly door-knocker earrings. Wearing a velvet suit? Complete the luxe look with this crystal drop earrings.
Zara beaded shoulder bag
Do you need a handbag to stay in? No. Will it complete your outfit and make you feel like you’re out-out? Yes. We’ll let this amazing Zara bag sway you into wearing one – even if it’s just as a talking point when you get to the house party.
Sleeper party feather-trimmed striped charmeuse pajama set
Sleeper PJs are always a good idea. The fun, feathered sets are a great investment buy and Net-a-Porter currently has several styles with 50% off. Add heels and sparkly earrings to this striped set for a dinner party, because they’re far too special to be only for bedtime.

Albaray velvet sequin jacket
If you’re having a dinner party then your top half of your outfit will be the most important part – enter: Albaray’s sequin jacket. Made from 100% recycled sequins, you’ll be able to wear this as a top or leave it open as a jacket for an easy win.
