Which Kind of
Festive Cocktail Are You This Season?
Here at Club L, we know those festive party invites are rolling in, and whether it’s a grand Gala-type evening where sophistication is key, or a chic cocktail event at a luxury bar in the city, there’s one common question on everybody’s minds – what are you wearing? So, instead of a last-minute panic, we’re resorting to some of the HQ’s favourite Christmas drinks for inspiration and style, let us talk you through it.
Simple Brilliance
Classic Champagne Cocktail
Champagne, as everybody knows, is the quintessential symbol of elegance. Nothing exudes a sense of luxury much like a tall glass of a champagne cocktail, so with this in mind, the confident and classic silhouettes are our first base for this season’s occasion dresses. Think monochromatic moments of a rich, velvet maxis adorned with a touch of glam embellishments inspired by the fizz, of course. Be it a dinner party soiree or New Year’s Eve toast, this bubbly beverage dressing cuts the silence in every room, as you will, too. Experiment with necklines such as beautiful Bardots, sultry sweethearts and fitting halter necks for a contemporary twist.
A Sweet Spin
Clementine Margarita
When thinking of clementines, bright, flashy colours spring to mind and they’re a perfect way to dress up simple satin silhouettes. Amid a room of winter neutrals, your dress will shine in its own light as you bring a sense of warmth to the occasion. As a margarita is often served in chilled crystal-cut glasses with a sweet and salty sugared rim, don’t be afraid to accessorise to the nines! The more jewels the better. After all, a bit of glitter never hurt anybody.
A Festive Feast
Peppermint Espresso Martini
This playful creation is next on our list, so like its name, your dress should reflect the minty freshness of a staple cocktail. For this style, we’re getting cheeky and confident as your eveningwear becomes smart and assertively seductive. The daring nature to elevate such a classic drink comes to life in a tailored blazer mini dress or a sparkling jumpsuit comprised of multifaceted sequins. And just like the sweet espresso bean toppings, opt for a bold pair of jewelled earrings to complete this ensemble.
Warm & Classy
Mulled Wine
The first point of call for a warming-inspired look is, of course, velvet and co-ords. Luxe long-sleeve styles are often overlooked when it comes to party season, but really, they’re the perfect way to replicate a steaming cup of mulled wine in your hand. This spiced treat invites us to explore the season’s most favourable palette of winter reds and blushing burgundies through elegant maxi dresses and skater minis. If you’re wondering what’s best to pair with the look, then dainty gold accessories are your answer, highlighting the craved gold mugs you receive when shopping around those humble Christmas markets.
