I’m a fashion editor & I wore the same Christmas dress 6 different ways – from NYE to your boozy work lunch, here’s how

DEPUTY Fashion Editor Abby McHale shows you how to re-wear your midi dress with minimal effort this festive season.

From work drinks to your festive lunch, styling your look can make all the difference.

WORK DRINKS

6

TAKE your dress from the desk to the disco by adding extra sparkle to your look.

Slip a sequin top over the frock to create the illusion of a skirt once the working day is done.

Complete the outfit with a pair of statement boots, such as these silver ones , which are sturdy enough for dancing or standing all evening, and a matching silver bag.

XMAS SHOPPING

6

STILL need to grab some last-minute Christmas gifts?

Indoor shopping can be warm work, so wear the dress on its own with a knitted vest to keep your core warm in between shops without overheating.

Opt for trainers to handle all the extra steps comfortably, and bring a stylish tote bag for ample space to carry your purchases home.

FESTIVE LUNCH

6

ANOTHER way to style the dress is by layering something underneath.

This sparkly roll neck adds a festive touch without being over the top.

Instead of a coat, opt for a fur gilet to keep warm.

Burgundy is a major colour trend this season, and searches for faux fur have increased by 88 per cent in the last month.

WINTER WALK

6

YOUR midi dress isn’t just for fancy occasions.

Dress it down for a winter walk with a pair of sturdy boots and keep warm with a cosy scarf and an oversized coat.

This burgundy one is bang on trend, being both the colour of the season and featuring a stylish quilted texture.

For extra warmth, don’t forget to add gloves and a hat.

TWIXMAS

6

TWIXMAS, the time between Christmas and New Year, is perfect for cosying up and relaxing.

But if you have a busy schedule with friends and family and want to avoid loungewear, this outfit is ideal.

A bright knit over your dress keeps you warm and adds a pop of colour.

Stay comfortable with a pair of ballet flats, such as this red velvet pair.

The Fabulous clothing range, designed for fuller busts, flatters all shapes and sizes.

Featuring a V-neckline, ruched sleeves, and lace detailing, this dress is a standout.
