Every girl loves to have a new dress for the holiday party
season - but sometimes the vast range of colors and styles in
the shops can be overwhelming.
Christmas Styles To Flatter
Your Shape
If you want to show off your shape this festive season, an
elegant well-shaped Christmas dress will help flatter your
figure and boost your confidence.
Often women choose simple black dresses for the annual
Christmas party. It's a classic and elegant style with so
many variations that there's some perfect for all women,
whatever their size or shape. You can dress it up by
adding accessorise with a little shimmer or glitzy glamour.
If you prefer something different, why not ring the
changes and wear something striking in red or gold, beautiful
& festive, but designed to ensure you stand out from
the crowd. (and avoid wearing red and white, unless it's a
festive Santa hat!)
What length
should I wear?
It probably depends on what tradition for that occasion
suggests. For your work 'do' the red or black Christmas
dress is classic semi formal attire. For a more formal
Christmas party a short cocktail or long evening dress may well
be appropriate. Choose fabrics such as silk, satin or
taffeta for very formal occasions.
For the annual Christmas ball, elegant evening gowns
are likely to be worn by guests. However, always check the
invitation which will indicated dress code.
We love this Youtube video which has four young women
sharing what style of dress they'll be wearing this holiday and
why:-
So ladies, don't make the mistake this
Christmas of choosing a dress that would look great
on a friend, but choose something in a shape, style &
color to suit you!
Voluptuous in Velvet
Choosing a sumptuous fabric, such as velvet,
will not only have you looking sexy but will fall around
your body flattering your curves.
A pretty red cocktail dress bring a hint of the festive
season with it with its vibrant red hue.
Unless specified on your invitation, formal evening gowns
are infrequently worn unless for a special occasion.
Velvet is always seen as a luxury fabric - and is ideal for
keeping warm whilst looking stunning this holiday season. It's
ideal for special occasions as you can look fabulous without
needing to wear vibrant colours or styles.
Strapless but stylish - this type of outfit will certainly
get you noticed when you walk into the room !
Add simple but elegant jewellery - team with pretty sandals
that make the most of your legs and be ready for a great night
of partying.
Family Christmas - what to wear
If you're visiting family for the holiday season, pop in a
couple of smart or formal options, just in case you're invited
out ! A few gold or sparkling accessories will help to
add that touch of glamour.
Even the woman who doesn't normally wear formal
clothing, dresses up for Christmas dinner!
It's been a tradition for mothers and daughters to wear
similar or matching dresses or complete outfits.
You'll find a range of matching dresses for mother, daughter
and dolly at http://www.dollyandme.com/mother-daughter.asp
For boys, wear something smart but comfortable that can be
worn on other occasions - smart trousers and a well-ironed
shirt, or simply wear what's comfortable yet stylish.
Holiday Weddings - dresses and outfits to suit
If you're looking for ideas as to what to wear
for a Christmas wedding or reception - remember that
you're trying not to outshine the bride, so bright colours
are probably not the best ones to choose.
Instead, choose dresses in deep burgundy, deep greens to
reflect the season without stealing the limelight or an outfit
with a simple print, such as this simple yet elegant cocktail
dress.
If you're on a budget, rework an existing vintage dress
by teaming it with a few fabulous accessories - a shimmering
belt, a glittering necklace, or some fabulous heels!
Try and buy something which you'll be able to wear for other
formal occasions, but team it with fabulous statement heels for
an amazing look.
Wishing you a very fashionable & Merry Christmas !
