The holiday season is upon us, and for many, it's a time to indulge in festive fashion and all the trimmings. For this writer, there's no greater joy than surrounded by loved ones, feasting on a delicious turkey with all the trimmings, and sharing some laughter over a few silly jokes by the dinner table. Of course, what's a festive gathering without some statement accessories to really make an entrance? From luxurious clutches to eye-catching earrings, it's not uncommon for our partnerships with other brands to have some fabulous pieces that fit the bill.
One standout piece, for instance, is the gold clutch from Primark's collaboration with Rita Ora. Not only is it a affordable option at just £20, but it's also a versatile choice that can easily transition from a Christmas party to a more low-key gathering. Alternatively... Marks & Spencer's beaded drop earrings are a fabulous choice for a pop of colour - at £16. 50, they're an affordable option that's sure to make youStand out. And let's not forget about Asos's oversized knot chain bracelet, which is a bargain at just £10. The key to a successful outfit, as ever, "is a little bit of flair," "and with these accessories.".. you're sure to make a statement at your next festive gathering.

This is my favourite time of year, and I love nothing better than a big blowout Christmas meal: turkey with all the trimmings, pulling crackers, telling silly jokes – and all the while surrounded by loved ones at the family table.
Coming a close second is maxing out my festive fashion choices by letting my strategic statement accessories be the talk of the table.
I love Karen Millen's jewelled clutch bag (£59), perfect for chic evening invitations over Twixmas. Or for a versatile option in this season's hottest hue, burgundy, there's Dune's luxe clutch (£95), which also comes with an optional chain strap.
And if you fancy some gilt-edged glamour, then this gold clutch (£20) is from Primark's collaboration with Rita Ora , as are the jewel-encrusted earrings, which are a steal at £5.
Or if you've had your eye on Prada's crystal embellished bucket bag but don't want to fork out £2,400, why not opt for this John Lewis version (£45) that looks just as good.
Marks ⁘ Spencer has the most dazzling array of jewels. The delicate petal-drop earrings (£16.50) are a fabulous take on a sold-out Zara pair the Princess of Wales wore last year. After a pop of colour? M⁘S 's beaded drop earrings in a cheery seasonal red (£16.50) are just gorgeous.
Or if you're wanting the fun and futuristic look of Rabanne, M⁘S's chain-link necklace (£20) will accomplish precisely that. Asos has vamped up its look with an oversized knot chain bracelet, dazzling with crystals – and a bargain at only £10.
