HOLIDAY PARTY DRESS CODE

It's finally the time of year when there are tons of parties. Get excited about adding a little dazzle to the night and wear that dress you've been waiting to take out of the closet. With some creativity and different accessories you can make your favorite dress the perfect outfit for all the holiday parties. Remember to dress appropriately according to the occasion. I thought I would share some tips so you don't have to break the bank.

1. Find your LBD (little black dress). This dress is the foundation of all of your outfits and can be changed around so that it will be the look of the night.

2. Figure out what type of atmosphere the party is going to be and whom you will be with. You don't want to be wearing anything too flashy when you are mingling with your co-workers but you also don't want to look like you are at a funeral when you're out with the girls.

3.Go in your closet, or of course if you are okay with treating yourself to a nice holiday gift...head to the store. Pull out a belt with sequins, sexy booties,below the knee boots, big dangling earrings, and bangle bracelets.

4.For an office party you will want to tone it down a little, but still have some fun, because this is finally a time when you see your co-workers outside of the office. Now that you are all set with your LBD, add your below the knee boots as long as they do not look like hooker boots. Nice suede ones, if you have them, are a good choice and the heel shouldn't be too tall. Put on those dangling earrings and bracelets, if you want, and you are good to go.

5.For going out on the town, have some more fun. Wear the LBD and you can add some sparkle. Sexy stilettos or booties would go great. This is where it is perfect to add your sequined belt, which you should wear below the bust, to create an empire waist of sparkle. Put on the dangling earrings and definitely wear some bangle bracelets. After that you are all set for the night.
