Holiday parties are probably already filling up your calendars during this feel-good time of the year and if it isn’t one with a theme whereby ugly sweaters are involved, it’s usually filled with sparkles, dresses, and bubbly. Each opportunity to mingle comes with a different dress code, and you surely do not want to risk a holiday breakdown due to the frustrations that come with getting ready. Here are 5 looks, classified by the type of holiday party:
The edgy metallic midi skirt offsets the femininity of the off-shoulder bodysuit and this combo is perfect for impressing your SO’s parents or showing up at family affairs without looking overdone or too eccentric.

2. Velvet Pleat Midi Skirt (RM360)
3. Something Borrowed Sueded Leather Tie Pointed Flats (RM79)
4. Coach Meadowlark Embellishment Dinky Crossbody in Glovetanned Leather (RM2,700)
