It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas! Emergency shopping (no matter how well you plan), family dinners and end of year parties will make you wish you had 48 hours in a day. And, on top of all that, you’ve got the added stress of what to wear! So if you truly like embracing this seasons’ sartorial spirit – and we’re talking more than just the cheesy jumpers -, then we’ve made a list, and we’ve checked it twice, of our five must-have Christmas dresses that’ll promise to make you the best dressed at all the events on our social calendar this month.
The Statement Dress
Tadashi’s ice sequin gown is our pick for statement dressing this season. The delicate arrangement of sequins in floral motifs add a delicate touch to the gown; we suggest you pair it with this stunning Pasquale Bruni diamond and colored gemstones choker necklace.

The Christmas Brunch Dress
When it comes to Christmas dresses, silver and gold are nothing new; consider Fendi’s blush pink dress for a modern take on Sunday 25th’s festivities. High-shine and playful metallic hues inspire our Christmas and New Year’s Eve closets, making this dress an absolute winner in our stylish opinions. For your feet, we’ve given you two nude shoe options, which are anything but boring.

Gucci Gold Metallic New Hollywood Horsebit Pumps
The Cocktail Dress
In case you haven’t heard, the ‘80s power shoulder is one of the biggest trends for winter 2015. We love Lanvin’s one-sleeve cocktail dress in gold and lamé, which is all you need to shine in the crowd. Keep the accessories simple, so as not to detract from this statement number, and style this with an evening clutch – say hi to Gucci’s Malika clutch and Bvlgari studs in stunning yellow gold and onyx.

The Evening Dress
Between the Christmas ‘dos and the office parties, we know you must have a gala dinner (or two) booked in for this month. Stuck on a dress? Well not anymore. Our aptly chosen Balenciaga midnight blue halter gown ticks all the boxes. Pair with a with a vintage Alahambra bracelet from Van Cleef and Arpels and you’re good to go.

The Romantic Dress
Romantic ruffles are trending this season. Ruffles, metallic bows and sequins on this dress by RED Valentino have us mesmerised – it is the perfect balance of feminine, sophisticated and just that little bit edgy. To match the look, Prada’s shirred gold clutch is your gal.
