So, here we are, almost 12 months since last Christmas. “Where did the time go?” I can hear you all ask yourselves. I don’t have the answer, but what I do know is what you will be wearing to all your festivities.
Let’s indulge in some occasion dressing from Westfield Parramatta that are suitable for occasions from corporate Christmas luncheons to Sunday barbeques in the yard and cocktail dresses for evening parties.
Lunch
Get out of your black pants and button-down rut and show up to your staff meeting followed by the Christmas lunch in pieces that recreate fashion in the workplace.
I’m a hopeless romantic so I’m oft drawn to floral prints. This Cue outfit is not only office-appropriate (with a blazer), but feminine, chic and transitions well from lobby to lunch.
Skirt, Tank and Bag from CUE
Inject beauty back into daytime fashion with this Anthea Crawford dress from David Jones. Get sophisticated-chic in this indulgent fabric and pare-down with a kitten heal.

Shoes by Wittner
Day
Weekends and days-off usually adhere to one, common theme – comfort. Pick something that is light, easy to wear and comfortable for your Sunday turkey feast.
Polka dots and frills are reminiscent of piggy-tail, school days. This season they are getting a high-fashion turn as celebrities world-wide pull out their inner Minni Mouse. So, show up to your garden-party in refined femininity (the mother-in-law will certainly approve).
Dress and Clutch from VERONIKA MAINE
The off-the-shoulder trend has been sneaking up steadily and now it’s made it’s way into the inventories of Sheike at Westfield Parramatta in a big, silky, gorgeous way – from tops to diaphanous dresses. Wear this stunning piece on a lunch-cruise around the glorious harbour or to Sunday Kris-Kindle Lunch with the girls.

Evening
Solve many an evening sartorial drama (with nary a sequin in sight) and invigorate the festive season with these stand-out dresses.
Make like lady and slip into a delicate tea dress. This nattily askew hemline is perfect for a charming dinner with loved ones and will still take you out dancing. Look after this beautiful piece and I promise you, it will come in handy for an intimate wedding in the New Year.
