Whether you're headed to a family gathering, an office party, or a night out with friends, make sure you're prepared with the perfect outfit. Choose from the mega selection at Florida’s largest lifestyle consignment store, True Fashionistas, and check out the tips below for nailing your look this season.
HIGH FASHION HOLIDAY PARTY FLOURISH – LITTLE BLACK DRESS
We’re going to jump in with that classic party staple, the little black dress, or more simply, LBD. This holiday outfit just screams chic, especially for 2022 with one-shoulder styles from Cinq a Sept, A-line sexiness from Alice + Olivia, or below-the-knee sheath fit from Eileen Fisher, among the many. Whether you opt for a simple style or something more embellished, an LBD is sure to make you feel festive and stylish.
HIGH FASHION HOLIDAY PARTY FLOURISH – SEQUINED DRESS
Another way to stand out at your holiday party is to go for a sequined dress. Sequins add instant glamour to any outfit, so you'll be sure to turn heads when you walk into the room. Opt for a dress in a festive color like red or green, or start with an LBD that also features sequins for a more dramatic look, like the Smyth dress from NBD. Go to-the-floor glam with the sleeveless, backless Samba gown from Amanda Uprichard, or Free People’s That Girl sequin slip dress. Sequins are NOT just for New Year’s Eve, enjoy them throughout the holiday season! Find your sequin dream outfit in the selection at True Fashionistas consignment store, Naples.
HIGH FASHION HOLIDAY PARTY FLOURISH – VELVET DRESS
The velvet cocktail dress is a cherished possession hanging proudly in your capsule wardrobe, as it is one of the most popular fabrics for True Fashionista holiday party dresses. Velvet’s luxurious feel and array of sexy styles makes it a perfect fabric for the festive season. If you're looking for a unique True Fashionista velvet dress, try opting for a style with an interesting neckline or cutouts.
Velvet dresses in unexpected colors like blue or pink are a hot item, however red is still a go-to shade, like the pleated long-sleeve elegance from Badgley Mischka. Go Diane von Furstenberg classic with a velvet wrap dress like Anthropologie’s offering. Don’t miss Ronny Kobo’s beautiful green puffed-shoulder midi dress, and Zhivago’s high-neck midi velvet dress called The Portrait. Shop for velvet dresses in an array of colors at True Fashionistas, the best designer consignment store.
HIGH FASHION HOLIDAY PARTY FLOURISH – FUR
Be it a stole, cropped jacket or full-length coat, fur is always chic, and will keep you warm if the party is held outdoors or in a drafty room. This is a great way to add some True Fashionista luxury to your look without going over the top. No worries if you’re feeling PC these days, there are plenty of faux fur offerings to complete your outfit. Alice + Olivia again step up with the Kidman feather jacket. Snuggle in to Overland’s alpaca wool Bella Cape with fox fur trim throughout for a luxurious feel, and the reversible fox fur vest by Gorski offers a padded chevron pattern as an option.
HIGH FASHION HOLIDAY PARTY FLOURISH – STATEMENT JEWELRY
No matter what type of outfit you rock this holiday season, adding some statement jewelry will help to elevate your look. If you're wearing a simple dress, try pairing it with a True Fashionista bold necklace or earrings for that finishing touch. For something more dramatic, go for a jewel-encrusted headpiece or cuff bracelet.
One solid trend happening this year is the resurgence of silver jewelry, always a timeless winter accessory. Retro designs like silver chains and hoops are getting a rebirth for holiday season 2022. Heart-shaped pendants and drop earrings are also hot items. Since we’re still making up for lost time, specifically the last two years, the general mood calls for a colorful, bold statement in jewelry. Go chunky or go home, like supersized cocktail rings by Dior and Givenchy, door-knocker earrings from Versace and Carolina Herrera and maximalist chains created by Tom Ford and Balmain.
HIGH FASHION HOLIDAY PARTY FLOURISH – ELEVATED EVENING BAG
Referring back to the aforementioned popularity of fur for holiday party wear, fur is also a trending style for your True Fashionista holiday evening bag, with the likes of Olga Berg, Loeffler and Crest all offering a fluffy statement to hold your party essentials. Available in an array of colors and styles, feather is definitely the fur to wear this year. We are far from spring, but florals are also a hot look in purses this holiday season. You can also find sequin purses such as Simitri’s take on the style. At True Fashionistas, you can shop authentic designer handbags on consignment.
