Sartorially speaking, the holiday season is a time of marked contrast: reindeer sweaters playing a seasonal counterpoint to the finery and glamour of evening wear.

While a jingling elf cap may keep the accounting department in stitches at the office Christmas party, the sharp, ambitious dresser knows to steer clear of theme outfits in favour of a more classic – and classy – look. Herewith, a selection of accessories that will bring holiday cheer to even the most workaday ensemble.
