Life's Important Questions: Part I - Holiday Party Fashion

Hey Ladies, here we are once again smack dab in the middle of the holiday season. It's time to give and be with the ones we love. Time to reflect on the year that's passed and ask one of life's most important questions, "What am I going to wear to all these holiday parties (wow, my thoughts exactly) ?"But don't fret, here are some easy tips to help you survive these holiday celebrations showing effortless style.




JEWEL TONES. The holidays should be filled with rich, beautiful color. Be on the lookout for emerald greens, royal blues, bold reds and luscious berry colors. If dressing in color frightens you to death, try accessories. You don't have to you overboard with color to make a impact. Please avoid the green dress, green shoes, and green purse look. You want to be fresh and vibrant, not a re-creation of your bridesmaid dress from your cousin's wedding.



















METALLICS. One way to turn up the heat this holiday is to add metallic. Metallic gives a touch of holiday sparkle and glamour. Please be cautious , it's often a challenge to pull off head to metallic. Daring girls can dive into the trend with a gold mini dress. Or, just dip your feet in and wear a couple pieces like a metallic sequined tank, jacket, a hot shoe or a clutch.









BLACK & WINTER WINTER WHITE. Black and Winter White are classic holiday choices for traditional style (worn together or on their own). You can never go wrong with thees color but choose pieces that add a little more spice. Instead of a plain black dress, do velvet or lace. Or even better, add fancy leg wear or tights (see "No Pedicure Required").





























LUXE FABRICS & SPARKLE. Nothing adds a finishing touch like luxurious fabric and a little bling. Think silk, satin, lace and lace to pack the biggest holiday punch. Don't forget the sparkle of sequins, rhinestones and diamonds (if you got it flaunt it). Now is the time to wear colorful cocktail rings, rock rhinestone embellishment on shoes, bags, or whatever. It's your time to shine!
