9 ways to make your jeans and t-shirt outfit Christmas party ready

You've got your sparkly dress; your new velvet bag is good to go. But sometime over the festive season that dress just won't do and neither will anything else in your wardrobe. In these situations, it's time to break out the old favourites.

Jeans and a t-shirt is the age-old ensemble of ease. Models do it, actresses do it, you do it. Everyone owns a pair of jeans; everyone has a t-shirt or two. But while throwing on your go-to's with a pair of boots and a leather jacket at any other time of the year would look perfectly going-out ready, you need an added touch of glam at this time of year. Luckily, it's easily done.

There are three fool-proof elements for amping up your outfit: shoes, jacket and accessories. You can do all three at once, or you can take just one step. But the key word to remember is 'statement'. Christmas calls for glitter and sparkle and the festive fairy in you must oblige. But remember, you don't have to do novelty.
