An absolute staple for this time of year is a pair of black or brown knee-high boots, heeled or flat, real leather or fake. Not only do they add a bit of warmth during these frosty months, but they also effortlessly glam up any outfit. Look to H&M for a more affordable pair, or Russell and Bromley have higher end pairs that may be more long-wearing. They’re incredibly classy, and can be paired with so many outfits, both casual and more dressed up. A personal favourite for casual winter attire is a black leather skirt, a roll neck jumper, tights, knee high boots and a classic black handbag. For extra warmth you could also chuck on a leather blazer or a fur jacket, and you’re good to go.
‘Tis the season to dress classy, sophisticated, and stylish, but also keep nice and toasty
When the Christmas work parties rock around, it can be a task to find the perfect balance between casual and fancy. Instantly making the outfit more glam but not too fancy, a pair of knee high boots are a fabulous solution to this problem.
Despite sequins and glitter seeming like the obvious choice for festive party attire, alternatively you could go for the more subtle yet eye-catching metallic option. This Rezek two-piece's fire-like orange tone is very apt for this time of year, and the corset neckline adds a feminine and classy touch. You could dress it up with a pair of slinky heels, or platforms and a little handbag. What’s also fabulous about this two piece is that it is available to rent, which will be music to every university student’s ears!
Pair the sequin trousers with a matte top or blazer, and the contrast will create an aesthetically pleasing finish
To get in the festive spirit or kick off the new year to a sparkly start, you’ve got to bring out the sequins. Whether it’s a pair of sequined straight leg trousers paired with a little top and heels, or a sequined skirt, a blazer, or a dress, you cannot go wrong. Pair the sequin trousers with a matte top or blazer, and the contrast will create an aesthetically pleasing finish.
