Style Notes: Throw on a long-sleeved dress and pack on the warm layers for a chic ensemble that will have you feeling put-together and cosy. Leather knee-high boots will help you retain the heat, and a good wool scarf won't go amiss on a November evening.

Style Notes: If you're in for a cold night, you'll have to be tactical about your clothing choices. A turtle-neck knit in insulating wool will take you further on an evening out than its crew-neck counterpart. Style with wide-leg wool trousers and a playful, fuzzy coat for a look that will have you feeling toasty 'till dawn.

Shop the Look: There's no need to keep the glistening display in the sky. Lean into the sparkly theme and style up the season's favourite silver metallic trousers. Pack on the glimmer in a subtle way and wear them with a glittery bag and hoops.

Style Notes: If you plan to spend a good portion of your evening ascending a hill to ensure the best possible view of the fireworks, then you can't be without a trusty pair of Chelsea boots. Wear with wide-leg jeans and a thick wool coat, and slip on some gloves for extra insulation.
