Tenues de fêtes, mode d’emploi

Whether it's Christmas Day or New Year's Eve, sometimes you have to be creative to put together a festive outfit worthy of the name. The good news is that sometimes all it takes is a few accessories to liven up a too-drab outfit or give a dress a little extra sparkle. Here are seven to help you look your best.

A SCARF TO WARM UP WITH ELEGANCE

The scarf is not only aesthetic, it can also warm up the most chilly. To make the most of a silk square and guarantee yourself a warm evening, opt for this watercolor floral model , this paisley or two-tone stole , or even this enveloping model in ecru . In any case, these options will go wonderfully with an elegant tuxedo or a minimalist dress.

A HAT TO BOOST A COSTUME

Brightening up your outfits with a hat is possible! To do this, choose a model with a classic shape, like an elegant khaki fedora , a navy trilby with timeless chic or a bright yellow wide-brimmed hat that is right on trend , which will bring a pop touch to the winter gloom. In addition to giving your look an extra touch of soul, these accessories will protect you from an unexpected downpour...

A JEWEL TO MAKE A LITTLE BLACK DRESS SHINE

If you have opted for a plain dress or any other monochrome outfit, do not hesitate to bet on a piece of jewelry (or several) to liven up your look. Among our sure values, revisited hoop earrings , a bangle decorated with rhinestones or a chain-shaped bracelet , a necklace with a gold pendant or an XXL ring ... Our advice? Prefer accessories in the same shade to be sure to hit the mark.

A TIE TO ENHANCE A SHIRT

There is no doubt that the tie is one of the essentials of the male wardrobe. This elegant accessory is often ideal for adding a dose of elegance to a shirt (and more broadly to a suit). For a festive evening, choose a plain pink knitted model , a royal blue tie , or even a floral version with an undeniable 60s spirit .

STRAPS FOR A PERSONALIZED TOUCH

Gentlemen, add a festive touch to your suit with suspenders! Although they are largely forgotten in fashion, they are nevertheless ideal for enhancing a look. All you have to do is match them with your suit: in white if you want to stay classic or in a printed version to stand out. And if you prefer a belt, this elegant brown leather model is one of the must-haves.

CUFFLINKS FOR THE FINISHING TOUCH

Originality right down to the sleeves… Even if your timeless white shirt is enough on its own, why not twist it with cufflinks? You will have the choice between this curved silver model or this graphic version , which can compliment a crisp white shirt or one with a printed lining .

A BAG TO KEEP YOUR ESSENTIALS WITHIN REACH

Finding the perfect case to hold your phone, wallet and other sets of keys is no easy task, especially when it has to match a party outfit. In any case, opt for a small size (no need for a large tote bag for just one evening) and choose from our favorite models: an eyelet bag for a bohemian outfit, a cream-colored shoulder strap to contrast with a monochrome look, a pop green handbag for a touch of color. Attention minimalists, this mini-size shoulder strap will allow you to slip a phone (and nothing else) into it.

You are now ready for festive moments!
