| Sparkling Sequin Styling is Hot this Season |
This holiday season, gold jewelry, sparkles and beautiful details like rhinestone trims, sequins, ribbons and bows are all in high demand in women's clothing and accessories. As a girl who loves all the holiday glitter and bling, I could not be more excited to share my favorite picks for this season. Whether you're shopping for what to wear to the holiday office party, an elegant Hanukkah or Christmas gala, casual yuletide get together, or New Year's Eve bash, check out these glitzy, fun fashion finds I've discovered for you.
Festive Jewelry
Let's start with the basics to add some bling to your seasonal look. Riding on the popular continuing trend of layering gold necklaces of varying lengths and types which I absolutely love, this is the place to start your holiday wardrobe planning, shopping, and building.
Gold necklaces as foundational jewelry don't just to add that needed sparkle accent to whatever you're wearing. Whether it's a new sequin bedazzled dress or a piece from your existing wardrobe, a gold necklace or two can go with just about every style of holiday dress from casual to formal, boho to elegant, and simple to over-the-top glitzy.
The December holidays are the perfect time to elevate your style vibe with statement earrings, too. No matter which holiday you celebrate, there is something you'll appreciate in this jewelry category. I just love these sparkling over-sized menorah earrings for Hanukkah.
For those of you going to Christmas parties this season these rainbow rhinestone 2-inch Christmas tree earrings are perfect. Meanwhile, Disneyana collectible fans will want to check out these huge twinkling novel Disney Mickey Mouse Christmas Tree Earrings.
Don't just decorate your neck and ears, consider rounding out your jewelry ensemble with some holiday-inspired bracelets like this Tis the Season Bracelet Set or this pretty Gold Bow Crystal and Pearl Cocktail Ring.
Beautiful Holiday Clothing
One of the hottest picks of the season is the sequin mini skirt which can be dressed up or down with a sweater or blouse depending on the event. Dazzling fringed sequin mini dresses are also vibing during the holidays this year. Equally full of sparkle is the long sleeve sequin shift dress.
Ribbons and bows are also front and center in holiday dressing for the current season. You'll be the talk of the party in a Christmas Red Cutout Sleeve Bow Sweater that can be worn casually with your favorite jeans or dressed up to top a sequin skirt. For a more elegant, formal look to make your big party entrance this one shoulder white taffeta bow mini dress is a great choice for the holidays as well as for you to wear again year-round to other special occasions like weddings.
Holiday Handbags, Shoes and Accessories
A special handbag is another must-have holiday wardrobe find to go with your holiday outfits. My favorites include this boho rhinestone hobo shoulder bag which goes from day to evening with ease so you can take it to the office and then out to an evening on the town. Another look in basic black that I really like is this elegant cutout handle box clutch with a big bow with a removeable chain shoulder strap.
For something really special and sparkling for New Year's Eve parties, I'm leaning toward sparkling conversational bags from a designer brand I have bought several handbags from before. On my personal gift wish list is this stunning pink champagne on ice bag conversation starter that's handbeaded. I'd also like to own this white and gold beaded champagne toast crossbody handbag with removable bead star charm and gold chain strap. It's small but roomy enough to stash your iPhone or Android phone and few other essentials, keeping your phone handy for those Instagram-worthy holiday moments while you're enjoying all the festivities.
You're not going to want to forget the shoes either. These can definitely make or break your entire holidaty outfit. Among the season's plentiful collection of party shoes available, this pair of slingback flats with rhinestone side bows and these sweet rose gold glitter ballet ankle ribbon tie flats are my style. For other accessories to take your holiday party look to the next level, how about some black fishnet rhinestone tights which would look so beautful with a pair of black stilletos with rhinestone embellished bow and your own chosen holiday party dress. For dressing up a more casual look, I'm also loving these sequin furry lined slip on boots which are comfy and cozy, as well as festive and sparkling so they'd be great to wear with jeans, a denim skirt or boho maxi dress.
