To Be Bright | Alicia Tenise | Classy South Blog
Today wraps up the final installment of the Style Scenario series! And I must say, we’re going out with a (glamorous) bang. Last week, we discussed what to wear to a family gathering and this week we’re putting on the glitz in holiday party dresses! Santa’s big day is rapidly approaching, but us bloggers are already outfit planning for 2014’s last hurrah. My favorite part of New Year’s Eve is getting dressed up in something bold, bright and/or shiny. In past years, I’ve always opted for sequins, but this year I’m experimenting with this Grecian metallic maxi dress from Forever 21. The draped silhouette paired with the daring slit makes this the most comfortable evening dress I think I’ve ever owned.
Sometimes I think I’m going at the Grammy’s, so I paired my dress with a faux fur coat for added drama. Plus, I love mixing different textures. I also added a layered collar necklace from Hanuel to emphasize the draping. And my go-to accessory for 2014 (and beyond)? FLASH TATS. I’m obsessed with these little temporary tattoos; they are the coolest. If you’ve never tried them, they’re worth the money. They’re great addition to any ensemble, especially on New Year’s Eve!
Have you decided what you’ll be wearing when the ball drops? And Happy Hanukkah to all those celebrating!
