Christmas is a magical time of year for children and parents alike. Christmas trees, festive spirit, Santa Claus and family get-togethers — it truly is the most wonderful time of the year. For the little girls out there, it’s also the best time of year to put on their finest frock and get festive.
If you’re shopping for a little princess this Christmas, but aren’t quite sure what to buy, we’ve got you covered. In this post, we break down our top tips for dressing your little girls at Christmas.
‘Tis The Season for Fabulous Frocks and Luxury Dresses
Christmas marks the height of party season, so what better time to dress your little girls up to the nines in a gorgeous luxury gown? We have a whole section dedicated to beautiful, luxury Christmas dresses — have a browse and find your little angel something special to wear this year.
Velvet is a decadent fabric that continuously adorns the Autumn/Winter runways for good reason. Luscious to the touch and visually opulent, it looks particularly spectacular in a deep wine red or jewel-like emerald. Delicate lace is another wonderful fabric for the festive season and will make your little girl feel every inch the Christmas angel.
Don’t be afraid of ruffles, puffs, mesh and all the extra flourishes — when it comes to Christmas dresses — more is more!
Take Inspiration from the Seasonal Color Palette
When choosing your little girl’s dress, take inspiration from the hearty seasonal color scheme. Here at David Charles, we’ve made filtering by color easier than ever — select the color to browse all of our luxury dresses in your chosen shade.
You can’t go wrong with a cranberry red frock to coordinate with seasonal red berries. Bright and jolly, one of our opulent red dresses will add a splash of color and joy to your festive celebrations. Or pay homage to the richness and opulence of the season with a deep burgundy dress.
Dark or emerald green is another seasonal color that looks fabulous on little girls — pair with a red headband for an elegant take on festive holly and ivy. Or to really channel the “angel on the top of the tree” look, a white gown with gold trimming is a perfect choice.
Indulge in Sparkling Frosting and Accessories
What do frosty icicles, tinsel, fairy lights and tree ornaments all have in common? They all glitter, so why shouldn’t your little angel? ‘Tis the season to get sparkly and indulge in some festive frosting. A few seasonal accessories will make your little girls sparkle like the angel at the top of the tree. Our pearl bracelets are a real treasure and the perfect gem for the season. With a regal mother of pearl ivory color and a comfortable elasticated fit, these bracelets are sure to add a touch of couture to your angel’s Christmas look.
Glittery clutch or basket bags are great for putting little presents or treats from beneath the Christmas tree and are a stylish addition to a beautiful dress. Designed to bring luxury style to her wardrobe, our kitsch clutch bags with their precious diamanté design shine from every angle. Hair bands are a great way of keeping hair neat and tidy amongst all the excitement. Our hair bands are decadently glittery and are handcrafted with the finest velvet ribbon and jewel-embellished design.
Keep it Comfy and Warm
For many of us with little ones, Christmas day starts early. With all the excitement surrounding Santa Claus’ nocturnal visit and the lashings of presents that await in stockings, even the latest risers are quick to spring out of bed to find out what goodies await. And once the stockings have been raided and the annual showering of wrapping paper subsides, there’s still a long day ahead for the kids. Family visits, feasting, more presents, carolling — whatever your tradition, you want to make sure that your little princesses are comfortable all day long.
All of our luxury dresses are designed with both style and comfort in mind. Made from only the highest quality fabrics and embellished with handcrafted details, your little girls will feel like princesses all day long. And when it comes to practicality, don’t forget the frost! Winter weather can be magical for children but sludge and snow damage pretty little dresses and dainty shoes. Keep Jack Frost from nipping at their little noses by investing in a sturdy coat, scarf, gloves or mittens. And if you’re heading to friend’s or family’s house, pack some spare wellies or well-gripped boots.
