Now that Halloween's over, we're starting to think about the festive season. Burgundy sequins were my first thought when wondering what to wear for Christmas cocktails, but Victoria Beckham has just changed my mind.
She attended the Harper's Bazaar Women of the Year awards at Claridge's in London, where she was presented with an entrepreneur award by her 13-year-old daughter Harper. It almost goes without saying that she looked impossibly chic for the occasion, and this minimalist trouser suit is now top of our Christmas party outfits wish list.
She chose a sharp white satin blazer with a tie belt, teamed with some matching wide leg trousers. Naturally they're her own design, and the jacket needed nothing underneath to look completely stunning. The former Spice Girl kept jewellery fairly pared-back too, and wore her hair up to allow the tailoring to do all the talking.

This River Island suit is the best style we've seen on the high street to channel your inner Posh Spice. Doesn't it look much more expensive than £130 for the whole shebang?
These trousers are perfectly cut to elongate your leg, plus the beauty of investing in a suit like this is that you don't have to spend hours figuring out what to wear. The hard work is done for you!
These platform heels are the ideal height to give you a lift without achey feet. The price point is pretty impressive, and they're also available in tan or gold.

Zara is always my go-to for tailoring, and I love the slightly shorter, boxier cut of this blazer. The voluminous sleeves are super flattering, and the ivory colour exudes Quiet Luxury.
If an entire suit isn't quite your style, these darted trousers would look great with a simple black top and heels. So many of us steer clear of white (especially if you're a bit clumsy like me!) but it's such a chic look and these are machine washable.
Flats are a great option to wear with tailoring, and these sparkly ballet flats are just more evidence of M&S being one of the best British clothing brands. One reviewer wrote "very soft material and so comfortable."
Victoria was joined by her daughter Harper, who wore a ice blue satin maxi dress with a keyhole cut out. It perfectly co-ordinated with VB's look without being too matchy matchy, and it goes to show satin is the way to embrace your soft side this season.
How to accessorise
Victoria's wearing her favourite diamond earrings by Jessica McCormack, but this Ted Baker style is an incredible lookalike. Check out our Black Friday jewellery deals for more if you're a bit of a magpie like me.
This little perfume pendant is such a gorgeous Christmas gift for anyone who's a fan of Victoria's signature San Ysidro Drive scent. Perfect for freshening up throughout the evening!
You can just see Victoria's wearing an emerald ring that adds a lovely subtle bit of colour to her outfit. It's safe to say I'm in love with this heart-shaped beauty.
woman&home Fashion Writer Molly Smith tells us why this outfit formula works so well: "Victoria’s winter white satin suit is the epitome of festive elegance - combining a soft satin material with sleek tailoring is simply genius and perfect for making a statement this season.
She says "this soft white tone offers the ultimate blend of luxe sophistication and effortless style."
