You know what’s great about being in the era of “anything goes”? It’s anything goes when it comes to how you want to dress for festive events (with the exception of black or white tie, of course). With that in mind, we’ve pulled 100 items of the kind you already love and wear, at prices that you’ll like even more.

The Best of All Worlds
For something that occupies so little real estate on us, jewellery is important. It has the ability to steal the show or subtly enhance it, turn a look from day to night in a flash, and complement every look from jeans and tee to the most fancy dress. PANDORA has four new ranges. We show you how to work them in every way.
LAY ON THE CHARM (AND EVERYTHING ELSE)
PANDORA, the Danish jeweller which has given us charms for all our special occasions and milestones, gives us more jewellery this festive holiday: four new ranges of earrings, rings, bracelets, bangles and necklaces for the everyday moments in our lives, and as everyday gifts to ourselves.
BACK TO CLASSICS
The key takeaway here? Some of the best holiday looks often include something black and something silver. PANDORA’S sterling silver options from the Facets of Winter range are from $99 each. Iris & Ink jumpsuit, www.theoutnet.com
REACH FOR THE STARS
Studs and spikes are the obvious choices for a rock-inspired look. The less obvious (which also means more interesting): stars. PANDORA’S Facets of Winter range offers the holiday favourite in two variations – the traditional five-pronged, and the less traditional, a row of “shooting stars”. The former is on sterling silver charms with tonal blue crystals; the latter is on earrings, rings, and pendants. From $89.
DO DENIM DIFFERENTLY
Not with silver or gold, but colour. Hearts of PANDORA is a range that has colourful charms and rings set with jewel-toned crystals to keep the vibes fun and festive. Charms, $89-$149. Rings, $129 each.
YOUR NEW EVERYDAY
For a piece of jewellery to qualify as “everyday”, it should be fuss-free, yet make you look better – all the time, with any outfit. PANDORA’S answer: Christmas Spirit, a range of festive-themed jewellery in PANDORA Rose, a warm-toned, rose-hued metal. Unlike gold or silver, it complements almost any skin tone by highlighting its blush tones. And for the first time, petites – little charms made to fit into PANDORA’S floating locket – are also available in the same rose hue. PANDORA Rose charms, earrings and rings, from $89 each. Petites, $49 each.
