What To Wear On Christmas Day

No matter how you spend the day, your Christmas outfit should be easy, chic and of course comfortable. If you’re dining outdoors, a flowy dress, playsuit or separates in a beautiful floral print are ideal. Teamed with an chic chain wallet or handbag, classic sunglasses and a simple pair of flats.

If your Christmas lunch is a more formal occasion, try a midi or maxi dress. Matching separates (black tunic and tailored cropped pants or pastel blue top and skirt above) are also a perfect combination. Pair with the finest of gold jewellery, perfectly undone hair gently braided or loosely knotted at the nape of the neck and simple tan heels for a stunningly natural summer mood.
