STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Holiday Glam

I think we can all agree on the fact that wearing dresses is the best style advice when it comes to holidays for two reasons. One, you don’t have to wear pants, so that’s already an instant win. Two, you can eat all you can without having to worry about bringing out your stretchy pants midway through the holiday dinners. However, with the recent temperature decrease from the long awaited winter weather, you may find it difficult to pick between warmth or fashion. This Fashionista has the perfect outfit to exemplify the littlest ways to stay warm in that little dress, as well as spice up your holiday outfit.

Leggings are a girl’s best friend, am I right? This pair of sleek black leggings works perfectly alongside this cool toned dress. Leggings can completely take your outfit to a whole new level or just compliment it evenly. For instance, the lace pattern of this dress compliments the plainness of these black leggings without overpowering the daintiness of the dress. If you are working with a plain dress, try utilizing patterned leggings for extra spice. Balance is key when it comes to any outfit. If your dress is full of lively patterns, stick to plain leggings.

Black boots are a staple piece that should be in every girl’s closet. These black ankle boots are perfect for this outfit, giving it a casual, yet sophisticated look. Wider heels tend to create a more casual look, while slimmer stiletto heels create a more dressy look. Either type would look great for a holiday party, however if you plan to wear the look out to class beforehand like this Fashionista, I recommend going with a wider heel to avoid looking overdressed for class.

Lastly, choices of accessories are the cherry on top to any outfit. This Fashionista decided to keep it a bit more casual and chose to skip accessories altogether for class, but when asked which she’d choose for a holiday party she instantly replied with diamond earrings or a sparkly bracelet. Personally, silver and sparkles are the best choice of accessory for the holidays, as they resemble the glimmer of ice and snow on those winter days. As I end another style advice, I once again want to mention that fashion is all about the confidence behind the outfit and a smile can glow up any outfit!
