December is finally here. And amongst the trips to Christmas
markets, and a frantic search for last-minute gifts, it’s time to start
thinking about New Year’s Eve. And, more specifically, what you’re going to
wear. Sparkle and sequins aren’t for everyone, but if you’re going to indulge
in it then there’s no better night to go glittery. And no-one seems to have
mastered that idea better than Topshop, who’ve spoiled us with a mix of
ultra-modern and flapper-inspired options for seeing out 2014 in style. So in
aid of the ultimate party-hopping outfit, we’ve pulled together an edit of the
very best bits. And there’s still time to put them on your Christmas wishlist.
Channel your inner ice queen (fairytales were all over the
Autumn/Winter 2014 catwalks) with this
co-ord set. The fringing is a little bit 20s, so you can nod to the Great
Gatsby without looking like you’re in costume. And the icy combination of
silver and white feels cool and different. Wear the top with high-waisted black
jeans for nights that don’t require quite so much razzle dazzle.
Want to sparkle, but in the most effortlessly cool way? Look
to Topshop’s sequinned joggers and matching tee, which are insouciantly slouchy
– there’s something very Ashish Spring/Summer 2014 about them. The silhouette
keeps is flattering without being fitted: the tee is short and boxy, while the
trousers have a relaxed, tapered shape. It’s sport luxe at its absolute best,
just add your highest heels and a flick of liquid eyeliner.
We’ve got a lot of love for this rose-tinted sequinned
pencil skirt. The all-over embellishment is two-tone, with silver on the
reverse, so as you move the colour will have a subtle change. The high waist
and fitted shape are suitably ladylike, so you can amp it up with a black crop
top, skinny strap sandals and a leather jacket slung over your shoulders.
Louche androgyny just doesn’t come better than this gold jacquard tux jacket and matching trousers. Team them with creepers and a simple black crop top to give this vintage-inspired look a more modern
edge, and keep your hair and make-up fuss-free.
We all know that Beyoncéloves to rock a Topshop dress, and we can totally see her wearing this limited
edition number. It will require some of her confidence to carry it off, but
you’ll double up as your very own mirror ball come midnight.
Premium cube collar, £100 - bit.ly/1tyI7EA
If you’re not sure about being
embellished all over, this necklace is a more accessible way to channel the
Queen Bey look. Already in the sale, this statement collar is a very hefty
string of glassy, oversized rhinestones that will dress up any little black
dress without fail. If you want to look like you made an effort, without
actually trying at all, drape it over a monochrome outfit for a cheat’s route
to decadence.
This outfit’s a real
showstopper, making up for its lack of sequins with generous feather trims at
the skirt and waist. Sheer sleeves and lace panels on the t-shirt mean that
both the skirt and the top are statement pieces in their own right, but it’s
when you wear them together that this look really stands out. Keep accessories
to a minimum – this already has plenty going on.
