We love how the festive season has the ability to turn us all into social butterflies. But with the countless dinner parties and fancy cocktail soirées comes one big question: is our wardrobe all stocked up and ready for the holiday party circuit?

Keep reading as we share tips -- and picks -- on how you can prepare the right essentials to turn yourself into party-ready perfection this festive month.

Gather your LBDs

Find your sole sister
Can’t miss out on the perfect pair of heels for the season, can we? It’s time to look out for a pair of heeled candy to help you stand out among the festive crowd. This pair of Jimmy Choo ‘Holly’ Sandals perfectly encapsulates this season’s glitz and glamour with its plush burgundy velvet and sky-high block heels.
Stand by with a pair of flats
Contrary to popular belief, a pair of flats can make you look dressy. So ditch the heels, give those tired, overworked feet a break, and simply opt for an equally chic pair of flats. Made from soft suede, these Aquazzura Sunshine Pompom-Embellished Suede Ballet Flats scream comfy chic and pompom dancing feet.
