I'm calling it: Beyoncé has just won party season, and it's not even Christmas yet. The singer rocked up to Diddy's 50th birthday bash in the party dress to end all party dresses and we bow down to you, oh Queen.

The mother-of-three opted for a very festive black velvet strapless gown with a thigh high slit that would put Angelina Jolie to shame.

It also featured frost like crystal embellishments on the waist and neckline, and came with long matching gloves too.

As we all know, more is more when it comes to the holidays, so Bey accessorised with all the diamonds, including a very sparkling tennis bracelet and emerald and diamond cocktail ring with matching chandelier earrings.

The actor recently opened up in ELLE about her famous curves and fluctuating weight, saying, 'If someone told me 15 years ago that my body would go through so many changes and fluctuations, and that I would feel more womanly and secure with my curves, I would not have believed them.'

Penny Goldstone is the Digital Fashion Editor at Marie Claire, covering everything from catwalk trends to royal fashion and the latest high street and Instagram must-haves.

Penny grew up in France and studied languages and law at the Sorbonne Nouvelle University in Paris before moving to the UK for her MA in multimedia journalism at Bournemouth University. She moved to the UK permanently and has never looked back (though she does go back regularly to stock up on cheese and wine).

Although she's always loved fashion - she used to create scrapbooks of her favourite trends and looks, including Sienna Miller and Kate Moss' boho phase - her first job was at MoneySavingExpert.com, sourcing the best deals for everything from restaurants to designer sales.

However she quit after two years to follow her true passion, fashion journalism, and after many years of internships and freelance stints at magazines including Red, Cosmopolitan, Stylist and Good Housekeeping, landed her dream job as the Digital Fashion Editor at Marie Claire UK.

Her favourite part of the job is discovering new brands and meeting designers, and travelling the world to attend events and fashion shows. Seeing her first Chanel runway IRL at Paris Fashion Week was a true pinch-me moment.
