December has arrived which means the holiday party invites are going to be coming your way. Start thinking about possible outfits now so you won’t have to stress on the day of the event.

One of the biggest trends this holiday season is metallic. Just about every store – from Macy’s to Forever21 – is showcasing metallic looks. This style can be found in the form of everything from shoes to dresses, so you will have plenty of options regarding how you’d like to wear it. Although many of us like to stick to black around this time of year, adding gold or silver metallic accents to your look will make you stand out.

Burgundy and maroon have been everywhere this fall, so there’s no reason that the trend shouldn’t carry into the winter season. A burgundy dress or skirt would be perfect for a dressy holiday party, or, if you would prefer to wear this color more subtly, try on a pair of maroon tights or a burgundy scarf. These accessories will not only keep you warm, but will also look great for any holiday event.

White is also a great color to wear during this time of year. A white dress or sweater will look fresh and neat, and would perfectly offset silver or gold shoes and jewelry.

Don’t go simple this holiday season; find a look that will make you stand out!
