Outfit for posh hotel but not too Christmassy

[Lastandfirst]

Hi all
Off to a posh hotel for my 40th next weekend with hubby.
I want to dress up. I can’t see anything that’s not Christmassy not sure if I’d look done up like a Christmas tree if I went in sequins

Im a size 10, red hair 5’2ish

Anyone seen anything?

Do you want to go vampy? Dark red ( or green) velvet would look amazing with your colouring.

What about this?

City or country? For daytime or dinner?

Whats your style? Do you have a budget?

Country. Ireland

Drinks and Evening meal and more drinks 🍸

Usual style if out would be leather/pleather trousers or jeans, nice top 🙈
boot/trainers … heals but not for a long time.

But want to make an effort and look glam

No real budget.

I work in a posh hotel. This time of year we get plenty of sequins and guests always look fabulous. It's your night, don't worry about anyone else ❤️ Please do tell the hotel it's your birthday and a big one... at the least they'll make a fuss of you... or maybe free fizz (I give any birthday a glass of fizz on me... ensure it's a nicer table... ask chefs to prepare a birthday dessert plate etc)... we love to celebrate with our guests and most hotels are the same! Have a wonderful time and happy birthday in advance!!!
