The Office Party
Office parties seem tend to make us struggle the most, because they are typically right after work hours so it may not leave you enough time to change clothes. Transform your office look to a party look by adding a sequined top to your favorite work pants. Don't forget to pair it up with fun heels or booties like these from Marskinryyppy, which I adore!
The Intimate Dinner Party
One of my favorite 2016 trends that's still strong is the pantsuit! It's the perfect alternative to dresses for your dinner with those special people in your life.
The Warm-Weather Holiday Party
This is not your typical holiday red outfit! If you're in warm weather, like Miami, you can wear a fun colorful skirt with your favorite top. This is the perfect look to go out for some festive cocktails with your girlfriends — Carrie Bradshaw and the Sex and the City girls would definitively approve!
The Neighborhood Party
A black jeans and leather jacket ensemble is just the right amount of laidback for your yearly neighbors' holiday visits. Add some sparkle and your favorite pumps and you're ready to rock!
The Casual Holiday Mingle
The pajama trend is one that I personally adore! A silk ensemble with bold prints is very feminine, yet sophisticated. Pair it up with gold accessories to shine at a girlfriends' get-together or chill house party.
The In-Laws' Holiday Party
A black dress is a classic and you can never go wrong with it when visiting your in-laws — you'll never be too dressed up or not dressed up enough. Add a bold vintage jacket and accessories to make yourself stand out and show some personality.
The Holiday Dinner With Friends
During the holidays, dinners with friends are nonstop. Those are the times to take out your most sparkle-filled dress and have some fun!
The Holiday Party You Are Hosting
For my annual Christmas dinner at home, I like to look elegant and trendy. The always chic knife-pleat skirt and a classic white button-down with fun shoes make for the perfect look for when all eyes are on you!
The Book Club Holiday Party
While hosting my book club's holiday event, I go for a very casual look with a touch of chicness. I paired up my favorite velvet tank and boyfriend jeans with a furry coat.
The Last-Minute Holiday Party
A long-sleeved little black dress always comes through for a last-minute invitation! Just pair it up with your most fabulous shoes and accessories and you'll be ready to party the night away.
