Three Ways to Sparkle This Holiday Season!

Source

Holiday season is upon us! Parties, soirees, get-togethers, family time…it all offers the opportunity to play dress up.

C’mon, we all know that at this time of year we have way more license to sparkle! There can never be too much sparkle at Christmas time :).

In the spirit of pushing our own fashion boundaries and dressing up to the nines, I’ve put together three looks for you to try out this winter. They’re all made up from affordable, easily available pieces but I’m sure you can find similar versions at your local mall if you prefer!

I went with black as the main theme partly because it’s majorly in trend this season, but also so that one or two items can pop with colour (and it doesn’t hurt that it’s universally flattering, just in case – you know – you ate a bit much at Thanksgiving ;)). If you want to showcase a different colour, go ahead!
