I Have Classic, Minimalist Style—Here's How I'm Doing Party Dressing This Year

Sponsor Content Created With Harvey Nichols

There’s something undeniably magical about this time of year, isn’t there? The cosy sweaters, the crisp air, the layers that let us get a bit more creative with our style—winter is the perfect season for indulging in both comfort and elegance. But for me, there’s one more reason I love it: the endless stream of party invites landing in my inbox. It’s that time when I get to embrace a bit of sparkle and play, and my going-out style becomes an extension of my classic, timeless wardrobe. Whilst I’m all about versatile staples, every season, I find myself adding just a few standout pieces to elevate my looks.

When it comes to finding those perfect party pieces, Harvey Nichols is always my go-to. It’s one of those retailers that just gets it; curating collections that balance elegance with a touch of the unexpected. Last year, my sister picked up a beautifully draped satin top that she’s worn to countless events (I may or may not have borrowed it on a few occasions). It’s the kind of piece that elevates any outfit and is perfect for those times when I need something refined yet effortless. Harvey Nichols’s selection feels timeless but modern, blending chic, polished pieces that are so versatile. I know that when I shop here, I’m getting styles that aren’t just on-trend—they’re pieces I’ll reach for season after season, especially as my calendar fills up with winter events.
