NEW YEARS GREEN

I've always had a terrible, terrible weakness for green. Its the color I always said was my favorite as a kid. This New Years I actually had a quiet night with family at home but if I had gone to a fabulous party, this is what I would have worn. I believe it's always good to have a party dress on hand, you never know when an occasion might sneak up on you! (Or when you might feel up for actually going out for an occasion.) Here's to 2012 and many more parties to come!

HOLIDAY TIME

Happy Holidays to all our favorite fashionistas out there! Wishing you much love and a Happy (and stylish) New Year!

FUR, WOOL AND SEQUINS

Funny, we had already put this look together when, flipping through our favorite fashion magazine, a nearly look-alike outfit stared back at us from the glossy pages. It seems Banana Republic and we Thread Ethic girls had a similar idea for a holiday look. The more the merrier, right? Party time! We designed the sequin dress, but the coat is Halogen, faux fur collar H&M, and heels Aldo.

LITTLE BLACK LACE DRESS

There was so much beautiful lace on the fall runways that we felt that the holiday season would not be complete without some lace on this blog. Seriously, you can see lace here at Marc Jacobs, Elie Tahari, and Elle magazine, to name a few. Sometimes the "little black dress" gets a bad wrap at party time for being a bit somber, so we'd like to make the case for the "little black lace dress". Lace is elegant yet tastefully extravagant (if there's such a thing) - you definitely know it is reserved for an evening out. Be warned though, black lace brings attention in a way that really nothing else can. Get ready to stop traffic in your LBLD. Dress vintage, heels Steve Madden.

We love it when celebrities step out for their holiday parties and events. Here we've picked a handfull of looks that we fell in love with. It's so hard to choose which is our personal favorite though. We love the Elie Tahari green that Zoe is wearing up top, but also love the black satin Ralph Lauren that Angelina donned near the bottom. Which is your favorite?

TEAL HOLIDAY

Time for holiday dressing! If you know us by now then you know that we adore vintage dresses for evening. The vintage dress shown here appealed to us because of the gorgeous silver-y teal color. The shade felt like a lovely alternative to the typical holiday colors. Gold and all things shimmery are hot for holiday fashion so we accessorized with a gold necklace and belt, and finished the look with leopard heels. It's party time!
