The festive season is very much in full swing, with preparations underway, it's time to focus on you, what you will wear over the upcoming month of celebrations? Or more importantly what you would like on your Christmas list!

Christmas parties, catch ups with friends, and family get togethers are important events, and here at Olivia May we want to help you create your special outfit for each occasion, stress free. Even the cosy Christmas morning of opening presents can be catered for with our extensive casuals collection.

Turning up at Victor's restaurant in Oxford to showcase our Christmas party outfit ideas gave us the opportunity to really create a special look. Amongst the brands signature wisteria trees we discovered elegant backdrops to emphasise a touch of sophistication that can be acquired from shopping at Olivia May, Oxford.

Which side of you is going to be out this Christmas? Clothing can be integral to expression and we love listening and responding to customers to create that unique look. We strive to offer variety for our diverse customer base and your feedback is very much appreciated, if there's an area you would like us to stock more extensively please let us know.

Turning up and making a statement? If this is you then you need to be looking to our avant garde designer segment. Featuring designers that we loyally stock season on season we showcase key designers - Xenia Design, Ümit Ünal and of course a huge selection from Studio Rundholz. We also want to draw your attention to Nu, a recent addition to our avant garde collections- we hope you like it !

For more sophisticated events a more tailored look can deliver the impact you may be looking for. Events which might be half party, half networking could really see you command respect in an Anett Rostel or IXOS dominated outfit. Blend striking dress code with interesting conversation and you will be on to a winner.

For a more relaxed event, a catch up with old friends, family dinners out, or a stroll around the Christmas market, look to our broad selection of casual luxury designers who have given us an exemplary winter aesthetic this season. Knitwear is a huge feature in this segment - Layer over silks for the versatility this busy seasonal schedule demands.

Keep an eye out for our bonus editorial that will keep you interested over the extended festive period. This is where we give you ideas for the next big party event once Christmas day has been and gone.
