This time of year things start to get busy with Christmas parties, end of year work dos, New Years Eve and general festive season madness. My friend was messaging me earlier this week asking for help trying to find a last minute dress for an important occasion and I realised that as a plus size woman it can be hard to pick up the perfect dress at the last minute. So, I’ve done the hard yards and found some gorgeous outfits to help you get your glam look ahead of time.
ALL THAT GLITTERS
Metallics and sequins are very on trend at the moment, and they’re perfect for a bit of glitz and glam. You can go with a bit of subtle shimmer, or hit it out of the park with a full on mermaid look. If you can’t go full mermaid for a Christmas party, when can you right?
JUMPSUITS
I’ve been seeing so many great jumpsuits around lately (I actually just bought my first one!) and thought they would be perfect for party season. I know that for some people (like me) find a plain black jumpsuit a really bold outfit choice, so dress it up with some accessories. If you’re feeling super sassy, go for a bit more glitz and glam – a sequinned jumpsuit is a definite eye catcher.
FESTIVELY FLORAL
Here in the Southern Hemisphere, the festive season coincides with summer, so floaty floral frocks are perfect for any occasion from office drinks to backyard BBQs. You can go bright and keep things light and airy, or go for darker florals (which I prefer).
BOLD AND BRIGHT
I’m a big fan of the saying “go big or go home”, especially when it comes to dressing up. Want to wear a tutu, a bold print or a bright colour? Party time is the best time to go all out with your outfit!
Which one of these party outfits would you wear this festive season?
