You know you can't go wrong when there's a twist and a bun involved. Two twisted sections on either side of the head that meet at the back to form a bun - it is elegant and simple enough to pull off even when you don't have a mirror.

2. Ribboned Hair Ponytail

Don't mistake the half ponytail for being too casual for party wear. All you need to take it up a notch is a satin ribbon. After being spotted on international runways, the half ponytail with a dainty ribbon is everything a lady needs.

3. Half Braid With Curls

Braids aren't only for the front of the head, they can enliven the back as well. A braid plaited horizontally across the back of the head can do wonder for a party look. Add in a few styled curls with a curling tong and you're good to go.

4. Embellished Twisted Ponytail

Of course, we couldn't get through the post without mentioning a chic take on a basic ponytail, could we! A low ponytail with a simple twist at its base and a jeweled hair pin is all your long hair needs for a holiday party.

When it doubt, mess it up - we're talking about your hairstyle, of course. A low messy bun with a wavy fringe in front and sprig of flowers at the back will make sure you are ready on time with a few minutes to spare for your lipstick.
