I love it. It's EXTREMELY THEMATIC but what do you expect from a woman whose mother owns a party planning empire? If you're hosting a Christmas party, HOST THAT PARTY LIKE YOU MEAN IT. (For those of you who, like me, always long for a plaid skirt,[ hers is Emilia Wickstead](https://rstyle.me/~aJgEE?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io);[ the cropped \[!\] sweater is by Brora](https://www.brora.co.uk/lq933a900?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io). I have [this insane cropped cardi from J.Crew](https://rstyle.me/n/dc2jfgcfjyp?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) and I wear it more than I thought I would, so I'm here to vouch for the cropped sweater as a concept, especially if you find that you now own more high-waisted things than you used to.) Speaking of very festive, this gentleman looks extremely chic in a classic red and white suit: > Father Christmas has arrived at the Orangery at Kensington Palace for the party for military families that Prince William and Kate are attending today [#royal](https://twitter.com/hashtag/royal?src=hash&ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) [#dukeandduchessofcambridge](https://twitter.com/hashtag/dukeandduchessofcambridge?src=hash&ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) [#princewilliam](https://twitter.com/hashtag/princewilliam?src=hash&ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) [#princesskate](https://twitter.com/hashtag/princesskate?src=hash&ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) [#katemiddleton](https://twitter.com/hashtag/katemiddleton?src=hash&ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) [pic.twitter.com/mfo1XKA6Fi](https://t.co/mfo1XKA6Fi?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) > > — Simon Perry (@SPerryPeoplemag) [December 4, 2018](https://twitter.com/SPerryPeoplemag/status/1069943393764171776?ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) It seems that this party was the hottest club in London, in that it had everything.
