While we ladies here at Secret Sales can’t wait for our Christmas party – so many designer clothes on show! – it came as a bit of a surprise to me recently that a few of my male friends have some fashion hang-ups when it comes to the festive season.
Invitations that say "Christmas sparkle" mean plenty of sequins, softness and style when it comes to women’s fashion, but leave many men (or at least the ones I know) a bit confused about where they should fall on the fashion spectrum.
Thankfully, Simon Chilvers of the Guardian has some wise advice for guys on the party circuit this Christmas.
He suggested that if you are not normally a silk scarf and cufflinks sort of fellow, December is not a good time to change your style.
Instead, he recommended options that are well-fitting and comfortable – cotton shirts are always a good option.
He wrote: " Ideally, you want to wear the shirt again, so don’t buy something that radically departs from your signature look."
If you are feeling particularly festive, why not pair it with a designer distressed velvet jacket from Burberry?
This year I’ll be wearing a classic LBD to my Christmas party – paired with some glorious designer shoes, of course!
What will you be wearing to yours?
