One of the most exciting parts of the Christmas holiday for women is getting dressed up for a special holiday party in a formal dress or semi formal outfit. So, how should you go about making sure you're a head-turner for the holidays?
First, the dress. Actually, the "dress" can be a super pair of pants paired with a special silk blouse or sweater, or a coordinated pantsuit. If you already know the styles and colors that suit you best, you're in luck!
If you're unsure, take a trusted friend to the mall with you and try on several different styles until you find what you look great in. Shopping needs to be done early. Don't wait until the day or even the week before the party.
If you prefer to shop online, you still need to begin well in advance of the party. You can get great deals by watching for pre-holiday sales and checking out eBay and other online auction sites.
Once you've found the perfect dress or outfit, get your jewelry accessories together. Here's a good tip: If your outfit is sparkly or flashy, keep your accessories on the smaller side (amount and size-wise).
If your outfit is a basic color with no sequins, beads or sparkles, dress it up with a pair or sparkly, dangly earrings or a knockout necklace and bangle bracelet. Whatever you choose, remember your warm smile is your best accessory this holiday season!
But wait! Christmas dress means more than just outfitting mom - infant Christmas dresses and coordinated matching outfits for the whole family are also important Christmas dress concepts, so read on for additional ideas...
