The wool dress
A knitted dress is a seasonal essential. Not only do they keep you warm but are versatile enough for parties, theatre dates and Christmas Day too. We love shimmery for the festive season, stripes, jewel tones and looser fits for snuggling up sofa-side.

Coat check
We could go all out practical here but the festive season calls for some glamour. A faux fur or shaggy chic jacket will look great down the pub on Christmas Eve but also keep you warm on a Boxing Day walk too. Meanwhile, tailored or military styles will earn their keep when when you head back to work.

Neat knits
Christmas jumpers are all well and good for livening up the last day at the office but… we’re all for sustainable options that you might actually want to wear again. Think ski chalet style, Fair Isle, preppy prefect or quiet luxury.

Best of the boots
Knee-high boots are a winter wardrobe staple, and we’re thinking you need at least two: one flat, one high-heeled, to cover all bases. Ankle boots are chunky and make a statement and pair well with party outfits for a twist. Metallics are still having their moment so add some silvery boots to your Christmas wishlist.
