From decorating the Christmas tree to present buying and the onslaught of party season, December is a demanding month for many reasons.

But the thing us fashion fans love more than anything about the onset of the festive period is the prospect of a new, winter-worthy aesthetic.

As the freezing temperatures set in it can be tempting to forsake your fashion credentials altogether but, believe it or not, cold-weather outfits that are as functional as they are chic aren’t actually that difficult to master.

You see, the winter chill in the air poses the perfect opportunity to not only invest in staple pieces that help you contend with the bleak weather, but to also have fun with layering, to try out new trends and pile on the party-ready sequins with pride.

This month, the high street is brimming with stylish pieces designed to ensure you stay warm while simultaneously preserving your sartorial prowess, from quilted coats and cosy jumpers to chunky boots that promise to make light work of icy pavements.

When it comes to bagging the most stylish pieces for upcoming festive bashes, now is the time to start shopping as by now all of your favourite shops have stocked their rails with a menagerie of sparkles and sumptuous velvets to get you party ready – think glittering midi-dress, swanky tailoring and pearl-encrusted hair accessories.

To help make getting dressed in the coming weeks that much easier, we’ve scoured our favourite stores to find the best new pieces that will help reinvigorate your winter wardrobe.
