The Holiday Season is Here. What to Wear And What Not To!!!


1)      DO experiment with different shades of red, there’s one that works for every skin tone. 

DON’T pair a red dress with red shoes, a red bag or other red accessories. All that together? It instantly says, “Santa’s helper or where did you leave the Elves???



         Do try off shades like deeper gunmetal gray, or a subtle bronze. The shiniest golds and silvers are only for the bravest and I mean the bravest.

     DON’T be afraid to mix in neutral accessories and non-metallic pieces, too. That’s chick!!



      DO try sequin pieces like long-sleeved tees and tanks, which feel glamorous and relaxed, it's the new casual way.
      DON’T forget to balance the look with matte fabrics so you don’t go blinding people.




 Do bust out those super-short hemlines but counterbalance the bare legs with a covered- on-top look.

 DON’T be bare everywhere…you get the point? 



 

Slip into ankle booties as a new take on evening shoes. Choose a stiletto-heeled style. It gives a tougher edge to romantic holiday dresses and is a nice departure from your usual pumps or party sandals.

DON’T layer on colured tights with these. One statement accessory is enough.



 Animal Print Style Tip: DO try a bold combination and don’t get too sexy by mixing satin with prints and showing off the cleavage. If you do jeans with a print jacket try a blue shade and not washed out jeans. Another thing don’t go head to toe with your prints can be a little dizzying.
