You blinked, and it's that time of year again - and the invitations for Christmas parties start rolling in. You might be cheerful and excited with the joy of this season but also overwhelmed (and sometimes freaking out) thinking about your work Christmas party outfit. Right? That's definitely one of the most challenging occasions to strike the proper attire, but it all depends on the occasion, venue and dress code requested.
Whether you are attending a themed Christmas party, after work drinks, a long lunch or a boat party, below are tips to guide you with your choice of dress depending on the formality of your work Christmas party. It is becoming more popular to designate a theme for the end-of-the-year parties. For those who struggle with choosing what to wear, that's good news - as the dress code is already decided for you. Trending Christmas party themes include; black and white, silver screen sequins and tropical prints.
The After Work Drinks
If you are going out after work, you may need to choose something that is work-appropriate but that you can also dress up later on and enjoy the party. For example, a mid-length block colour dress can be dressed with a nice blazer during the day and added as a plus with statement accessories after hours. Or what about a unique sheer lace mesh top paired with a pencil skirt or pants? Create a look that is chic, elegant and timeless.
The Long Lunch
A long lunch is the moment when you can choose that beautiful flowy dress that makes you comfortable sitting with your colleagues for hours and recharging the batteries for the year to come. Again, pay attention to the top part, as you will likely be sitting down. A long sleeve dress can be the cherry on top when it comes to Long Lunches.
A Boat Party
If you are having a boat party for your work Christmas event, your team seems to be fun, right? The best idea to avoid being wrong is to wear a smart-casual outfit. A statement jumpsuit makes you look classy and comfortable at the same time. If you prefer a dress, try straight dresses with bold, bright colours to match a nice hat or statement earrings.
