https://www.monsoon.co.uk/luella-feather-cuff-top-ivory-20003900016.html I think this would be perfect with wide legged trousers. I wonder how tricky or otherwise it would be to unpick the stitching to remove the feathers to wear it for work after Christmas? And jumping ahead massively here, but feathers gone, what necklace could work?

I'd go for the Arlette feathered mini dress: https://www.monsoon.co.uk/arlette-feather-mini-dress-red-20003890006.html
BUT - I can't wear heels or completely flat shoes (I usually live in trainers with good arch support)
What else could I wear with them?
Also, why is there SO much velvet this year? I can't bear the feel of it so most of the party wear is a No for me 😥

This dress is so fun. Kitten heels are a huge trend right now and offer a touch of heel height without the intensity of a high heel. Perhaps a style like this could work for you?

This is a beautiful dress but I can only wear flats. Can you suggest some and a bag that would coordinate?

https://www.monsoon.co.uk/trina-asymmetrical-embellished-jersey-maxi-dress-brown-10019320063.html

Festive flats are huge this season. My favourite for an elevated look are embellished, velvet and pointed, Our Elia in chocolate brown would look so elegant with this dress. When it comes to bags, I'd go for something sleek, simple and silver to match the embellished side detail. Our Sia Diamante Bow Bag is perfect.

Thanks but they're far too narrow in the toes, and kitten heels don't suit my unstable ankles!

Such a fab dress! I love it with our metallic bow block heels for a statement look

Oh yes I love these! I use wheel chair so don't need to worry about sore feet either!

The Venus Embroidered orange Jacket, because I love colour and texture. I think I’d wear it over a silky dark green garment, but should it be vest and trousers, or a dress? At size 18 with a bit of a stomach, a boxy jacket and trousers can make me look like a tree trunk. I love the colour of the Celeste Embellished Bow Midi, but the fabric, sleeves and embellishments are all wrong for the Venus jacket. Two outfits!

Higglea · 19/12/2025 15:42

Love this midi! Would style with champagne coloured sandals and bag www.monsoon.co.uk/jayda-sleeveless-floral-jacquard-midi-dress-blue-20003650003.html

I love this dress but not sure what footwear/tights to wear! It is the gorgeous Fallon mini dresswww.monsoon.co.uk/fallon-floral-embroidered-velvet-mini-dress-blue-20003800003.html

Festive wear for me is all about getting mileage for your money.

I can see myself, wandering around a Christmas tree farm on a frosty morning, hot chocolate in hand, wearing this fair isle jumper.

https://www.monsoon.co.uk/penny-embellished-fair-isle-jumper-red-10012980062.html

Teamed with these carrot leg jeans

And this super cute bobble hat in red..

What would you suggest as a coordinating outfit for my two girls? (7y and 2y)..And do I put them in the same outfit?? We love a good photo opportunity! 🎄☃️

I love this velvet dress -there's just something opulent about velvet.

I was wondering how thick it is as looks-wise it would be perfect for a work event that I have every summer. If it's thick, heavy velvet though it might be too warm.

So many lovely pieces this season, it’s hard to choose. But I could treat myself I’d choose the Celeste velvet dress:
