Is this outfit just too boring..

..for a Xmas party? Basically black skinny jeans, a white silk blouse and heels.

The 'theme' is black and white (my company always insists on theming their Xmas parties..thankfully it's not full on fancy dress this year).

I could jazz it up a bit with some sparkle jewelry maybe? And I thought about getting some kind of sparkly flower to put in my hair.

I don't really want to spend money on a dress, and actually I'd rather be comfortable-ish.

Please be kind!

Perfect! You look gorgeous.

Phew!

Thanks ladies.

Money is on me spilling red wine all down my white top within the first hour! Wink

Stick to G&T?

DavetheCat2001 · 12/12/2015 18:12

Yeah prob best to avoid red wine, although it's normally someone else that ends up launching it all over the place!

I think it looks gorgeous.

LOVE it with the black shoes - gorgeous.

Not helpful but I liked the white shoes... I am no fashion guru but I will admit I always feel people look chicer in black

You'll look good with either shoes on...

DavetheCat2001 · 13/12/2015 08:37

Thanks zen

I really like the white shoes too, but I think I'm going to save them for my cousins wedding next April. I have a Karen Millen dress they will match nicely Smile

I do really appreciate everyone's input. It definitely helps to get other ladies opinions. As I said before, OH tries but he just says everything looks 'nice' which isn't much help!

Great outfit. You just need some fab earrings to finish it off.

HolgerDanske · 13/12/2015 21:17

Love love love it with the black shoes. Very chic. Other shoes much better for spring/summer as you mentioned earlier, and also daytime.

I'm envious of your fab eBay find, the blouse is gorgeous.

PitBlackwell · 16/12/2015 00:28

I love them! You look fantastic.

I don't think it is the least bit Christmassy but you will be the classiest and most stylish there. Gorgeous blouse & shoes. You won't get a shag, though. But you're a babe, right, so who cares?

RogerScrutonRocks · 16/12/2015 00:37

Argh! Didn't RTFT. The white shoes are much better.
