There’s no denying that the festive season, can sometimes be a little exhausting. A busy time at work, socialising all day and lots of late nights. We’re here to get you out of your pyjamas and straight into your brightest jewellery, your party dress, those sky-high heels and to get you grinning from earring to earring. See what we did there?
Our party season style guide is your little notebook of guidance. Like a best friend helping you choose your jeans. It’s your Christmas look with all the trimmings.
We’re talking: after-work necklace layering, the boldest of Christmas day earrings and diamonds as bright as the NYE fireworks. These are the pieces that’ll take your party season dressing from standard to show-stopping.
You’ll be ready to do-the-rounds and have the funkiest festive season possible. After all, it wouldn’t be a party without you. And your H. Samuel jewellery.
WHAT TO WEAR TO THE FRIENDSMAS?
The Christmas party with your friends is the time to be experimental with your style. And really paint the town (in sparkle and sequins). We know your friends will hype you up always.
To go bold: go for gemstones. Deep emeralds, rich rubies and sparkly diamonds set into statement necklaces and large stud earrings made to match. You’ll be getting compliments all day and all night. Plus, they’re the perfect gift.
We’d wear your gemstone set with a sequined skirt and a silky shirt. You’ve got the sequins, we’ve got the sparkle. This really is your time to shine.
WHAT TO WEAR TO THE OFFICE CHRISTMAS PARTY?
The office party is a tough one. You don’t want to stray too far from your usual attire, but you still want to show off a bit more of your character. The answer?
Spell out your personality with initials and statement silver pieces. Aim for affordable, elevated glamour. We’ve got chunky silvers bracelets with a matching necklace, a set of sleek hoop earrings and necklaces with pendants in every letter of the alphabet (just in case your co-workers need a name hint).
Pair the pieces with something a little more fun than what you’d wear to work. A co-ord pant and shirt set, a high-neck midi dress or belted jumpsuit. You’ll be sure to go down as the office fashionista. Trust us.
WHAT SHOULD I WEAR TO A WINTER PROPOSAL?
Has the time to drop the knee and ask them those four words finally come? We’ve got your jewellery and winter wardrobe sorted ahead of the big moment.
Our advice? Dress in the same way you usually would but make it a little bit smarter. A shirt and jeans, chinos and a smart-casual jumper or suit pants and a suit jacket if it’s your usual day-to-day attire.
In terms of jewellery, this is where you want to shine. It’s the perfect way to show them that you know what you’re doing, and that you’ve picked the right ring. How does a few signet rings and a matching necklace sound? Or a Michael Kors watch and a matching silver chain? Whatever you decide, make sure it’s a little more jewellery than you’d normally wear.
Remember: don’t forget the ring. And if you’re not quite up to this part, H. Samuel has every kind of engagement ring they could ever dream of. You can't go wrong with any of the styles in our Forever Diamond collection, especially when they start at only £499. Deep breath, you’ve got this.
HOW SHOULD I DRESS FOR NYE?
Whether you’re watching the fireworks from the London Bridge, having a family dinner party or dancing the year away with your besties – this NYE is all about the dazzle.
Necklaces encrusted with diamonds brighter than any firework, stud earrings with heart shaped diamonds, tennis bracelets and matching earrings. Our top tip? Sport your sparkly jewellery with a mini dress. Maybe a cowl-neck satin number or a hot pink shift?
Regardless of how you dress, we say – go big or go home with your jewellery. Remember: it’s your time to shine. As they say, diamonds are everyone’s best friend.
