Holiday Havoc: What to Wear for Your Christmas Party?

January 9, 2019

Does your office hold an annual Christmas party with a dress code?

There is a fine line between sleazy and professional dressing. And for some ladies, office parties are clearlythe night to cross it!

Now, we hope that you don’t belong to that category, for no one wants That Creepy Guy from the tech department to be drooling all over you this Christmas or trying to catch you under the mistletoe. That is one encounter we need to dodge!

However, despite the sticky situations office parties may put us in. It doesn’t mean that you have to stay buttoned up and stuffy for this seasonal event. After all, this is the perfect opportunity to put your hair down.

So what should you wear?

Here are some classy, sophisticated ideas that might spark your interest:

1. Fun Formals

Did the office arrange a black tie event?

This is the ideal time to make your office crush’s jaw drop. You can opt for long lace dresses or elegant below-the-knee gowns. You can also team up the latter with a tailored tuxedo jacket to keep things offbeat.

In fact, if you are bold enough you can show the men who’s the boss by blazing in with a tuxedo of your own.

2. Floral Fusions

Unleash flower power by donning a cute &colorful cocktail dress. You can change things up by choosing a floral print that suits the occasion. The best part is that your ultimate cocktail dress is evergreen. It works for any kind of season and looks just as pretty in the daytime.

Pro tip: Keep your sleeves long to balance out your short hemlines!

3. Glitz and Glamour

Many consider Christmas parties as the corporate version of red carpet events. This is why you have every right to dazzle and shine under the fairy lights. We suggest that you match the festivities by donning metallic separates, burnished fabrics or sequined dresses.

Pro tip: You can amplify your neutrals with some eye-grabbing embellishments!

4. Stick to the Theme

We feel that you can never go wrong with colors. Therefore, we are adamant that you ditch those ordinary little black dresses that have become the staple at parties. Replace the black with a burst of Christmas themed colors (bright red, emerald green or pearly whites). Furthermore, you can either keep things monochromatic or shake things up a bit with a mix and match ensemble.

In the End

You are the only one to decide what to wear to the party. You can choose to come out of your shell or keep things traditional. Nevertheless, whatever style you may choose, your winning smile and relaxed attitude is the only thing that can help you get through the night.

So don’t forget to have fun!
