TOP 10 OUTFITS FOR CHRISTMAS AND NEW YEAR | Vlogmas Pt. 6 | Hello October

Hi everyone, welcome back to my channel. So today I wanted to do a top 10 outfits for Christmas and New Year videos. So this is a video with kind of lots of dressy-ish outfits, but it ranges from like full on glam to more subtle kind of everyday going from kind of like, I don't know, your mom's house to a shindig, that kind of thing. So yeah, hopefully there is a range that you can all kind of take inspiration from. Also some of the items in this are kind of mix and matchable which I won't go too into depth with because I just think this video could end up being really long, but there are definitely certain pieces like jeans for leather trousers, bodies in certain places where there are other tops, that kind of thing, where you can really switch things up. And there are probably more than 10 outfits that I could make. There are probably double with all of the items in this, but I just want to keep this short and sweet-ish. When has a video of mine ever been short and sweet? I don't think that's happened since like 2013. Anyway, we're going to get on with this. I really hope you guys enjoy it. Please let me know which outfit was your favourite in the comments below. And yeah, I hope you enjoy it. Okay, so I'm going to get started with this first outfit because I am wearing it anyway. This outfit is one of those more kind of in the middle ones. It's definitely one that can take you from a more casual setting to a more dressy one. All you have to do is really switch up the shoes or the jewellery, that kind of thing. I've kept the jewellery pretty paired back for this look, just because I think that the structure of this outfit is so dramatic that you don't really need too much going on with the earrings. But if you were going to a more dressy kind of place, actually you could really dress this up even more if you wanted to. The earrings are from the Emilia Liana and Skinny Dip collaboration. The top is from Topshop. I love this top. It's so great. I just love the structure of it. It's really, really beautiful. I've also paired this with leather trousers instead of just a normal pair of skinny jeans. If you wanted to casual this down more, by all means, whack it on with a pair of skinny jeans and I think it will work beautifully. With a pair of skinny jeans, you could also wear a pair of boots. There are lots of pairs of boots in this video coming up that you could pair this with, but I've just decided to pair the leather trousers with this pair of really simple black sandals from June. These are very like Bottega-esque with the square toe. So I feel like they're really like clean and minimalist and it's quite a nice contrast really with that square toe to this very like flouncy. I want to use the word flouncy. I don't even know, is that an actual word in the dictionary? Whatever. It's a nice contrast to the very like puffy, flouncy kind of delicate sleeves. And I really like that little bit of juxtaposition. So yeah, that is outfit number one. Jewelry will remain the same pretty much throughout this video. So my rings are from Olivia Burton, Zara and Versace. And I will link everything in the info box. The thing I'm most likely to change up is my earrings and I will let you know where they are from as we go on. Okay, so this next outfit is actually one I wore last year. There are quite a few outfits in this that some of you, if you are long-term viewers will remember because my events wardrobe and kind of like dressy wardrobe doesn't really change very much. I have real staples in it that I live and breathe and I don't tend to add to it very, very often. I tend not to switch things up too often and tend not to need new things in it too often because everything is very, very timeless. This bodysuit included, this is from Zara and this is the main key piece for this outfit, but it's also gonna reappear later throughout this video. I think this is like a key part of my going out wardrobe because I layer it under a lot of other things. And sometimes I wear it and you won't even know it's there. So yeah, I just really love it. It's a bodysuit. It's like really thin and kind of fake silky, weird material, probably like polyester or something on the bottom, but on the top it's this lovely velvet. Yeah, I'm wearing this black body from Zara. I've kept the same earrings as the look before and the same trousers. I switched up the boots. These are a very old pair of boots from Pierre Balmain. I think it's like a Balmain diffusion line. And I really like the way the shoes kind of match my top half and then we've got this contrast of leather in between, but we've got like velvet and this suede material on the bottom that are kind of like matching together. And this is one of those outfits where I'm really letting the shoes do more of the talking, but also I've decided to add a coat in with this one. I'm not going to be doing this with every outfit because you girl doesn't have enough coats for that to be honest, and I have a lot of coats, but I don't have enough for a whole festive shebang. But there is one coat that I love in particular at the moment for an evening out. And it definitely adds more of a wintry kind of festive, snuggly feel to things. The coat is from Misguided and it's just a really big, fluffy white coat. And I do think a fluffy white coat really adds like a sense of glam to an outfit. The one thing I also want to note about this top is I know I'll get questions on this because it's probably one of my most asked questions lately, but I know I'll get questions over what bra I would wear with this top. And this is one that's great. I'm going to take my shoes off whilst I talk you through this, sorry. This one is great because you can kind of, depending on where your top kind of meets your trousers, you can kind of make it so the fold is more across if that is the vibe that you're going for. Sorry, I'll push you. Or one of the ways that I wore it last year was it was very open, so like down to here. And that is like, obviously when it's more across, you can wear a bra with this and it's very easy. But when it's more like open, it's obviously a bit trickier to wear a bra. And in that case, I would say boob tape is your best friend. I am a big fan of boob tape. I have been for a very long time now. I think for most of us, it's something that we probably need, even if it's just for like more aesthetics. I think sometimes it just really helps to help everything sit slightly better. So that's kind of mostly why I use it with this top, just so everything sits slightly nicer, but also I use it along the seam and basically tape it down to my skin. So I use some up here to kind of like hoist everything. And then I use it along the seam as well to keep everything exactly where it should be. And I can like lean forward and everything is staying where it should be. So yeah, I think a lot of people, even if they don't say that they use it, definitely use it. When I look at pictures, I'm like, I do not understand. If there is no boob tape, I do not understand how everything is staying where it is. So I think it's kind of like one of those like little secret things that lots of people use in lots of ways. And I would definitely recommend something like this because otherwise, like everything looks like it's staying right now, but if I lean forward, everything is out. Everything is out. So that's just something I wanted to note before I moved on to the next outfit. This next outfit, I love. It is really festive without being too over the top. I think it's perfect one for those kind of party situations where you don't know what everyone else is going to be wearing. And you know, you don't want to look too overdressed, but you also still want to look festive and feel kind of nice and a little bit special. I'd say it's one that's kind of nice for Christmas day if you'd like to dress up, but not go too glam. I know lots of people spend Christmas day in their pajamas and I am with you on that one. But for those of you that don't, that go to like family and you will kind of dress up, have a nice party, whatever. Even for Christmas Eve, this is a lovely one. The jumper, which side note, is currently covered in my hair and for that I apologize, is from Topshop and the skirt is also from Topshop and the shoes again are the same shoes that I wore earlier from June. And I've kept jewelry all the same just because I feel like this is one that's definitely lends itself to being better the more simple you keep it. Oh, the jumper I got in a size 10 and the skirt I also got in a size 10, but the skirt I would say is maybe slightly oversized. Like there's definitely a lot of room in it. I could eat a whole Christmas dinner in this and still like not be kind of like touching the seams. So I would say if you want more room in it for eating your Christmas dinner, then go true to size. And if you want more of a slim fit, then size down. Also, if you like this one and you want to dress it up a little bit more, I would say a blazer would be the perfect kind of addition to this. Also a long black coat, if you have to wear a coat, I think is just like really perfect and will really streamline everything and just tie in nicely with all the black and just let the skirt pop. So this next outfit is the struggle to get on. I would definitely recommend putting this on before doing your makeup because to get it on with this bun, it's either like we're compromising the integrity of the makeup or the bun and there's very minimal choice. So either do your makeup and don't do your hair or I don't know, just put this on first basically because it is shrugs. It's elasticated at the back, which is great, but it does have a band around the top and that doesn't like, there's a zip up the side, but it doesn't go the whole way. So you can't like completely open it up and then just do it up around yourself. Definitely something I thought I'd mentioned because when you're getting ready for a Christmas party and you've just done your makeup, there is nothing worse than putting on a top that then fucks everything up. The unnecessary rage, like actually in moments like that, I feel like I should have anger management because it actually makes me so unnecessarily angry. But anyway, this outfit, despite the fact that it's very difficult to get into is one of my favourites. It's very simple, but really, really beautiful at the same time. It's all about the top and I just think that it's so gorgeous and I've paired it with one of my favourite items ever, which are my black cigarette trousers from Topshop. These have been in my wardrobe for so many years now and I love the mixture of these two together. It's very smart, very dressy, but very sophisticated and just looks very pulled together, but it's still very minimal in terms of how much is going on. I've also paired it with the misguided coat as well because I think this works really beautifully because there is like no shoulder kind of dressing going on. It's one of those ones that you kind of have falling off shoulder and it just looks really beautiful and quite elegant, but really glam at the same time. It's a whole look and I love that. So this next outfit is definitely more of a Marmite outfit. I got a lot of ---- the first time I wore this outfit and Beyonce wore something just like it really recently. So I'm going to carry on wearing it for the rest of my life. Not that it wasn't anyway, but just to justify the fact that I love this outfit. I really love it. So we're wearing the Zara body again and this time I've paired it with a Zara kind of skirt that's also, it's like a short skirt, also a long skirt. It's kind of like dip hem, but not really like graduated or it's got this extra layer and it just kind of falls. I love wearing this with my glittery Topshop boots. And I think for this time of year, this is like a really gorgeous festive outfit. The outfit works great on its own if you're indoors and you can wear a leather jacket if you want with it. But my personal favorite way to wear it is with an oversized blazer. My current blazer that is oversized is very oversized. So just prepare yourself for that. It's definitely, I think the blazer makes it a very Marmite type look, but I really love this outfit. It's one that is kind of, it's like power dressing, but it's also like glitzy and I just feel really special in it and I love it. So I wanted to include it in this, especially because although I wear it for other events, it's definitely one that because of the boots, it's very festive. And I think you can get away with it this time of year. Okay, this next outfit is another one that requires boob tape, 100%. If you have like a really pretty sparkly bra, I would also say this would look really, really cute like that. But this is just a way of making a tailored kind of suit that you might already have in your wardrobe a little bit more sexy. It's also a really great one for office to like party because obviously you could wear like a shirt, whatever you would normally wear under your blazer underneath and then kind of whip it off. And I do think this is definitely a little bit more daring, definitely not everyone's cup of tea, but I really love it. But like I said, this would need boob tape. I'm currently out of boob tape. So let's hope and pray for me in the cutaways that nothing goes wrong. But yeah, it's just really nice and simple. And it's definitely one that you can dress up or dress down. So you can add as much kind of like glitzy jewelry as you like. You can add a really nice sparkly shoe to this. I've gone for very plain shoes. I'm currently on the hunt for the perfect sparkly shoe. Anything sparkly goes with this because you're basically dressing up something very, very plain. So it's kind of working with a very blank canvas. And I think that's really nice because we can all tailor it and go as far as we feel comfortable with. So my suit is from Zara. If they still do it, I will link it. I'm sure they still do because it's just one of those very, very basic items. I'm sure it's from the basic range, if I'm honest. The bag is from West 22. All my like slouchy pouch bags are. The shoes are the June ones. And then my earrings, which I think you will have seen in the previous clip. These are an old pair, I believe from ASOS, but I love them and they're perfect for dressing up any outfit. I'm crouching down because I've already put my heels on. So I feel really awkward. But this next outfit, some of you will remember from last year. I love this so much. I really think you can't go wrong with a sequin dress when it comes to Christmas. This one that you could wear with like a simple heel, like a strappy heel. The June heels that I've been wearing already in this video. So many boots, like suede boots would look beautiful with this. A nude shoe would look beautiful. I've gone for the glittery boots again, just cause I want to like give this a bit more wow factor because we've got some more like casual outfits coming up in this video. So yeah, that is that for this. This is from Zara. It's quite old, but I will link some similar ones. And if they still have it in stock, then I will also link it. And the boots are the Topshop glittery boots. I've gone for minimal jewelry with this because I just feel like it didn't need any extra, but I would keep it kind of simple, like simple hoops, very dainty, delicate jewelry pieces like that. If you're looking to go for any in particular, and I'd probably go silver with this over gold, to be honest, like all my rings are gold, but I'd probably switch it up and go with silver for this. So this next dress has a little bit of a wow factor to it. If I'm honest, I wasn't sure on this one at first, mainly because it involves color, let's be real. But I really wanted to include a silk slip dress in this edit, which isn't my black silk slip, try saying that six times, silk slip dress. You know what I'm talking about. I wear that dress religiously to death and you guys have seen it a lot. And I just kind of felt like, you know what? There's probably, since I'm going to be linking to a similar version anyway, I'm going to pull a similar version to show you guys. And I saw this and I couldn't resist the color. This color is everywhere right now. It was definitely my favorite. I really love the cut of it. I just think it's very, very, very nice. Yeah, I particularly love this dress. This is from Topshop. So like I said, my old black one was from Topshop. The style they're doing this year is slightly different where it has this asymmetric hem that falls. It's really, really beautiful. This was basically their version of it this year and they come in loads of colors once again. And this in particular was my favorite color. And I've decided to not pair it with black. You could pair it with black, maybe I'll show you both. But I also think this looks really beautiful with a nude accessory because of the green. And it's kind of like that contrasting colors. And I just think it's very soft and just looks really beautiful. And it's very wintry without looking too evening and too formal. And I really love that. It also, that way ties in really nicely with the white coat. It all works either way, whatever accessories. I just think it's actually a very versatile color really because of that. So yeah, I love this dress in short. So the nude accessories I've paired it with are a pair of YSL heels and a West 22 kind of nude slouchy bag, the misguided coat and for black accessories it would be the June heels and then another West 22 bag. This next one is a personal favorite of mine. It is one that I can see myself wearing over and over time and time again. Partly because you can wear it with a Zara body. But I just, you know when you just try something on and you're like, I am 100% on this. Like it feels like second skin. Like I love all of these outfits. I would wear all of them. I have no problem with wearing all of them. This is one that, like I said, feels like second skin. It's glitzy, but it doesn't feel like, it just feels right. It just feels right. So yeah, I really love this one. The body, like I said, is from Zara. I've just teamed it with my skinny dip Amelia earrings again and yeah, all the jewelry is the same. I kept it quite simple. This outfit also, by the way, looks bomb with like glam waves from kind of like chin length down if you have longer hair. It looks great with a slick bun. I think any, my phone is ringing. Please hold. We're back in the room. I really hate when people ring me. Does anyone else get that anxiety? Like just please text me. Please leave a voicemail. Please stop calling me. But anyway, I'm going to get into it. The skirt is from Topshop. I've paired it with the June heels as normal. Like I just think it looks so great with these. You could also do a strappy Topshop heel. I would also do these. I'll pop a picture of those on screen as well. I love those strappy Topshop heels and I would have normally paired this skirt with those. However, I'm just missing a strap and it's very sad. And I'm just mourning the loss of that strap right now. I'm contemplating whether to buy a new pair of shoes. They also do them in a lower heel. For those of you that aren't a big fan of heels, I think those work really, really nicely with this skirt. So those are definitely an option as well. Black boots would also be a great option with this. It's just a really, really great, super simple, very easy outfit. Work really nicely with a leather jacket, but also any kind of coat. This is just one of those really easy to wear outfits. And I think you could wear it as well from office to like party in the evening. It's just a really, really great outfit for a number of different occasions. Quickly crouching again because I put my shoes on and forgot to intro this. This next outfit is more about layering and more about going from a very casual scenario to something a little bit more festive, but you don't really want to like change too many parts of the outfit. And you also don't want to feel too festive, really. This is one for people that don't really do glitter or sparkle, but it's just kind of like a nod. It's that all about the shoe type situation, but still looking very, very pulled together. So something for those that don't really love dressing up so much. So we're going for a Zara body. This is partly for layering. It's one of those moments where you want to have a nice top on underneath another layer, but you don't really want to have too much going on. This is just a really nice, simple layer, but that works with every other part of the outfit and makes it all look very streamlined and pulled together. I've gone for a top top pair of skinny jeans. These are just super plain. I think they're the Sydney skinny jeans and then the Topshop sparkly boots as well. I'm pretty sure Asos do a version of these. I will link this in the info box for you to go and shop if you are interested in this. Cause I don't think this shoe is something that everyone will have in their wardrobe, but I think it's something that's definitely worth investing in. So I've had these shoes for three years now and I just really, really love them. And they come out again every single year. And then the jumper is from All Saints, but you can have any jumper you like really, any jumper you feel comfortable in. But this outfit is basically about having that kind of nice bit of knit wear, a nice pair of jeans, and then a really festive glitzy pair of shoes to kind of get you in the spirit, but without having to really like push the boat out and without feeling too overdressed. And you know, it's one of those things where you're wearing a nice bit of knit wear, but if you get a bit too hot, the outfit underneath is still bomb as well. And that is it for my top 10 festive outfits. I really hope that was 10 cause I kind of lost count. Anyway, I really hope you guys have enjoyed this. Please, like I said, let me know which is your favorite in the comments below. And I will see you guys again very, very soon. I'll put my Vlogmas schedule on screen here cause it's very here and there, the ----. You're still getting the same amount of videos, just really, really off schedule. Normally I like to do Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Sunday, but my schedule is just not allowing for me to be home to upload on those days. So this is what we are working with. But I hope you're all enjoying Vlogmas so far. I'm going to stop rambling now and I'm going to go cause this video is probably already long enough. And I'll see you guys again very, very soon in the next video. Bye.
