BLACK AND GOLD

Black and gold (and a smattering of leopard print and maroon) seems like a pretty good way to go at Christmas.
Having firmly asserted themselves as a summer staple, I'm thrilled that culottes are still basking in their 2015 revival, this time proving their versatility as a party piece. Teamed with a pair of heels, a grown-up blazer and embellished with gold jewellery, they seamlessly work an office to Christmas drinks transition. Plus taking on culottes means you can skip the tights faff (proving a logistical nightmare with a puppy on my knee on public transport) and any scratchy sequins too.
And in the spirit of giving, I've teamed up with UBER to offer first time users a free ride up to £15. Just use the code HATTIEWEST. Treat yourself, it's Christmas!
