A mountain wardrobe can make room for a little glamour, especially during the festive season. Metallic finishes, crystals and subtle sparkle are an easy way to make familiar winter pieces feel more dressed up without moving into formal eveningwear.

Footwear is a good place to start. A pair of glittering boots can be worn with ski trousers, leggings or a simple knit dress and immediately becomes the main feature of the outfit. The contrast between practical mountain clothing and something more decorative is precisely what makes the combination interesting.

Silver works particularly well in a winter setting. It can appear on boots, bags, jewellery or sunglasses and combines easily with black, white, grey and cream. Gold brings a warmer alternative and looks good alongside camel, brown and deep winter colours.

Sparkle can also be kept small. Crystal earrings, a metallic manicure or a shimmering knit can add enough detail to an outfit without making it feel overly festive.

For dinners and drinks at a mountain hotel, these pieces can also make the transition from daytime to evening easier. A simple sweater and trousers need very little else when the accessories already provide the statement.

The idea is not to dress for a Christmas party every time you leave the slopes. One unexpected shiny piece can be enough to bring a more playful fashion element into a winter wardrobe.
