Dress, Whistles | Long sleeve tee, Primark | Heels, Clarks c/o Sarenza | Necklace, gift | Belt, Forever 21
I love getting dressed up for Christmas Day. It's nice to slip into a pretty party dress and a pair of fancy heels, even if the furthest you're going is the wheelie bin at the bottom of the drive.
My 2012 Christmas Party Dress is from Whistles. It's a real princess dress - sparkly and sticky-outy in fabulously festive green. The cool geometric print means it's not too saccarine sweet, and when worn with a long sleeve tee it's perfect for daytime celebrations.
I wore it with my favourite leopard print heels from Clarks aka The Most Comfortable Heels in the World (TM). I'm constantly surprised by the wide range of women's party shoes from Clarks* - the brand has really come on from the Magic Steps days. Although if I'm honest, I'd kill for another pair of those beauties.
Did you get dressed up for Christmas Day or were you chilling in your onesie?

Looking gorg Jen!! Oh yeah Id still wear my Magic steps if I had em ;) x
ReplyDeleteI didn't really dress up, I bought a new top and wore that, so I wasn't in my pj's, but not dressed up either! I love those shoes, they certainly look comfortable x

I love your shoes - reminds me I should wear my leopard print heels more often! I've spent Christmas in my onesie - I'm incredibly lazy and don't really leave the house, haha! x
ReplyDeleteYou look gorgeous! Picking out a party dress for Christmas day is always one of my fave things to do!

Gorgeous dress. I ventured out of my onesie and put on a cheesy christmas jumper instead which you can see on my blog ^_^

I LOVE that dress Jen! Damn you for leading me to the Whistles website :)
ReplyDeleteOoh, love the dress and shoes! I started and ended the day in my onesie, but I did manage to change into a nice dress for the middle part! xx
ReplyDeleteAs if you said Magic Steps. Oh sadness, my giant feet were too wide for them and it pains me to this very day. I like the heels though they're a *wee* bit low for me. What's the lipstick? The colour's fabulous x
ReplyDeleteIt's Topshop's Rio Rio - a favourite of mine! :)
DeleteRed lips for Christmas are definitely a must!

LOVE this, especially how you've added a long sleeve tee to a fab party dress.
ReplyDeleteI wore my favourite LBD, warm leggings, grey floral socks and grey feather earrings- a mix of casual and dressed up in one.

ReplyDeleteGorgeous Jen! Love the colour on you.
ReplyDeleteI always wear a dress on Christmas day, you just have to dress up. It's the Christmas law.

love this dress you look lovely :)x
ReplyDeleteHi Jen, I'm catching up on your posts! My absolute favourite is you in your pink sweater with long hair, but this dress looks amazing on you, it's sooo sophisticated and I love the addition of your leopard heels.Wishing you a Happy New Year! xx
ReplyDeleteSome very wearable new outfits from the Elie Tahari 2013 collection. Makes a change that you could wear any of these outfits whereas shows are normally themes that people then develop into something rather than ready to wear.

I love the shape of the bottom half of this dress, the colour and pattern are amazing too, very festive!
