IF YOU'RE the kind of gal whose diary is packed with festive invites right up until Christmas, you're going to need a whole host of outfit options for all your evening activities.
From work parties to school pal reunions and festive frolics with your besties, you've got every excuse to go all out with a dazzling dress or trendy suit, and dig out your most sparkly bag.
As for shoes, choose wisely and one fabulous pair will see you through party season in style.
What's on trend right now? The 90s, of course, which means multi-strap metallic sandals with stiletto heels.
Inspired by Prada and Miu Miu, mules are also having a moment – think backless heels in sumptuous fabrics like satin and velvet, embellished with bows and jewelled details.
Dancing queens will love the 1970s style uber-high platforms that are making a comeback, and the rainbow trend that started back in summer is still going strong – except this time it comes with added seasonal sparkle.
But if you really want to be on the cutting edge, it's all about perspex heels.
These see-through shoes really do go with everything because they make your feet look basically naked (so you might want to get a pedi booked).
