An open fire, the cosy feeling of laughing with your family and some cheesy tune playing in the background. Only 60 days to go and time is running out to get your party wardrobe sorted out.

We do not want to think about the added kilo conundrum, but just keep in mind it might take half the following year to shape things back to normal. It's also the time of parties, parties, and more parties. This can only mean one thing, dresses and dresses and maybe one more. Unfortunately, you can't 'panic' buy your party frocks like you would your parents' presents. Don't fret, however. Simply follow these simple do's and don'ts when it comes to planning the season's wardrobe, and you'll be the belle of the ball!

The Do's

1. Know the dress code. Different parties hosted by different people with different styles will inevitably have different dress codes. It is, therefore, important to keep track of these dress codes, lest you show up in inappropriate garb and end up the odd woman out - or worse!

2. Get red-y! If the extremely mind-boggling decision of what to wear to the next party, well, boggles you, it's best to be safe rather than sorry. In many a Christmas shindig, you can never go wrong with wearing red. Don a metallic red party dress, ridiculously high strappy red shoes, or even a shiny, red nose, and you're a guaranteed shoo-in. Why, it certainly worked on Rudolph!

3. Show some sense - of humor, that is! Christmas is the time for joy and laughter, so why not contribute to the holiday cheer with an outrageous accessory, or two? Jazz up your outfit with candy cane stockings; you may wear a Christmas hat, switch on the fun and funky side, in style. You will definitely be the life of the party!

4. Sparkle up! It's Christmas, after all! It's the perfect opportunity to dazzle, so mix and match and glow! Put on a silver metallic strapless party dress, and complement it with red or green accessories. Or, wear extra glamorous makeup with sparkling glitter to get you in the mood to party. In other words, don't just feel festive - look festive!

The Don'ts

1. Don't wear Christmas jumpers. At least, not in a Christmas party. If it's a party that your mum is throwing, however, by all means, wear the jumper. You know, the overdecorated ones with the snowman decal, or the grinning elf embroidered up front.

2. Don't wear matching outfits. This should be outlawed for anyone over the age of 6. 'His and her outfits' spell 'his and her corny'.

3. Don't jingle bells. And necklaces. And earrings. And bracelets. Santa colours will always be high fashion during the festive season, but do not overdo the statement. The only thing that should be jingling and tinkling in a Christmas party are glasses of champagne in a toast.
