Tuxedo

Sunday, November 29th 2009

The holidays are upon us, which means that so are holiday parties!

Although holiday parties generally send most schedules into a frenzy, it doesn't have to have the same affect on our wardrobes. Instread of purchasing outfits for parties that you may never wear again - my advice is to invest in a classic piece with a twist! This way, you'll be able to wear the clothing on many occasions instead of just one.

That is why I love the "Tuxedo" trend.

Designers have taken the classic tuxedo evening appeal, and turned it into fabulous dresses, jackets, and pants that can work with your daytime attire and also evening!


                                     

Any of the pieces above (which can be found at shopbop) are fabulous, classic investments that give an ever so subtle hint of evening, but - you'll be able to pair with different kinds of shoes, belts, bags, skirts and pants for years to come!

Not only that, but although they are a "trend" item, both pieces are not so outrageous that they'll date themselves like other holidays items will.

Play with different accessories to create numerous chic looks that suit you!

Happy Holidays!

Warmest wishes,

Christie Ressel, International Image Consultant and style coach
