From party-ready sparkles and twinkling sequins to cosy pyjamas and Christmas jumpers that match every mood, nothing says the festive season has begun better than a serious wardrobe refresh. Whether your December is booked with back-to-back social engagements and Christmas ‘dos or your plans are skewing closer towards lounging at home in comfy loungewear and holiday movies on repeat, our brands have exactly what you’re looking for.
Let’s get glam
If party season is calling your name, you definitely need a new outfit for every occasion – and this year, there are so many fantastic trends to choose from at H&M, Oliver Bonas, TK Maxx and Next. Think modern glamour with sleek styles, luxurious textures and elevated metallics for sophisticated nights out and cocktails with friends. Want to make more of a statement? Go big on embellishments, with everything from statement knitwear to bows and puff sleeves, and find the perfect accessories at Accessorize and Lovisa too!
Beauty break
Good skincare is the best base for any festive fashion look, especially during a British winter when the dry weather and cold winds pose an extra challenge to our skin. Stock up on your winter skincare essentials at Boots and Superdrug, and indulge in seasonal scents and cult-favourite buys at our brand-new Rituals store.
Cosy up
If ever there was a good time to stay at home with a box of chocolates and cheesy movies on repeat, it’s Christmas. From essential layering pieces and warming knitwear at Uniqlo to pyjama sets and cosy accessories at Primark and Next, you’ll find just what you need to keep you warm and chic while you settle in to rewatch Love, Actually. Plus, with our all-new Dunelm store, you can make sure your home is just as cosy as you are with everything from festive cushions to winter-ready throws to snuggle up with.
Kick your feet up
A relaxing night in isn’t complete without the perfect socks and slippers to keep your feet as warm and cosy as the rest of you. Head to the likes of Office and Deichmann to see what’s new and find the perfect pair to really complete your festive night at home.
A touch of novelty
It’s official: regular knitwear is out, but Christmas jumpers are well and truly in. After all, Christmas isn’t Christmas without a punny slogan knitted on the front of a sparkly top. Whether your style runs closer to a retro knit at Oliver Bonas and H&M’s subtle sparkles or you’d prefer to channel your inner Disney child with a festive Mickey Mouse design at Primark, your new festive fashion favourite is just a trip to Southside away.
