Style Notes: A slip dress never fails, and Chrissy shows how to take it to dinner by shoulder-robing a jumper (no one wants to get chilly at the end of the night) in the same shade. You could also add a blazer if you wanted to cover your arms.

Style Notes: If the dress code is black-tie then it's time to pull out all stops. With no such think as OTT, you can go as dressy as you like. Keep it sleek, though, and remember an amazing black dress (whether it is a maxi or mini) never fails.

Style Notes: The work party is always a tricky one to navigate. You want to look smart, stylish and confident all at the same time. But it's also the perfect opportunity to get dressed up so sequins never fail. Instead of a dress, why not try a sleek two-piece?

Style Notes: Heading out for cocktails with your best friends somewhere extra fancy? Or heading to a festive soirée with a glam dress code? Take the opportunity to get fully dressed up—it's party season after all!

Style Notes: While a lunch out with friends or family (whether it is at a cosy pub with a roaring fire or a buzzy hot-spot with cocktails) means you can go a bit more casual than with other looks, it's still a great excuse to get dressed up. Consider a knitted co-ord and heels or, like Franny, opt for knee-high boots and a midi dress in deep tones.
