I feel all set for X-mas, but what will I wear for the Thanksgiving holiday dinner? *gnashing teeth.* </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holiday-outfit-idea#post-1092044 Wed, 20 Nov 2013 17:45:49 +0000 Lauren 1092044@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another fun outfit idea!&nbsp;<a rel="nofollow" href="http://bit.ly/1eikCtN">http://bit.ly/1eikCtN</a>&nbsp;This time, sexy and black and white with gold accents.

Every year I wear a cute red courduroy skirt, but I need to stop with the red skirt already!!! This outfit is cute, but depending on where you are, maybe a bit chilly?? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holiday-outfit-idea#post-1084593 Thu, 14 Nov 2013 05:34:37 +0000 Mary Beth (formerly LBD) 1084593@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't have any red or green - I just have a couple of pieces that have been in rotation for holidays and special events (ballet, broadway shows) - a flesh-colored sequined Michael Kors pencil skirt, and a 1950's-style beaded purple-ish/navy circle skirt by Anthropologie. &nbsp; I've been wearing both pieces for several years now - they each get worn 1-2x every year. &nbsp; </p> <p>This Christmas, I'm going to see my idol, Brian Setzer, at his holiday show, and I am going to pay full tribute to the genius I have worshipped since I was 12 years old.&nbsp; &nbsp; My <i>pièce de résistance</i> is a vintage dress I have had for years, but have never worn.&nbsp; I&nbsp; FINALLY fit into it.&nbsp; It is a cream-color, knee-length, late 1960's Lillie Rubin knee-length dress that looks like it was altered for a Vegas stage show or a pageant.&nbsp; My guess is that it is a polyester crepe fabric. &nbsp; It looks like the top and skirt were taken apart, and panels of heavy-duty nude mesh were added all around the waist. &nbsp; It is the kind of fabric you see in showgirl costumes,and it is completely studded with huge, gorgeous rhinestones and crystals.&nbsp; &nbsp; Very retro.&nbsp; Kinda sorta Cher.&nbsp; &nbsp; And totally worthy of the music stylings of the Fabulous Mr. Setzer and his big band orchestra.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holiday-outfit-idea#post-1084544 Thu, 14 Nov 2013 04:32:09 +0000 Lauren 1084544@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@Runcarla you just made my day! I'm so happy to hear that! I actually am trying to convince my SO to do a post like that again... it's been highly requested. Enjoy the trousers in good health!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holiday-outfit-idea#post-1084432 Thu, 14 Nov 2013 02:17:43 +0000 Carla 1084432@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I usually do a LBD or a (now ancient) red dress, but during my shopping trip last weekend ended up with something completely different.</p> <p>Lauren, I remember when you let your SO pick out something for you to wear, so I asked my DH to play along with this game (I had just helped him replenish his wardrobe--3 pairs trousers, 6 shirts, 2 pairs, shoes, etc.)</p> <p>Well, DH really liked a pair of silky trousers a SA at Holt Renfrew was wearing. (She was actually a personal shopper helping a client!). This is a look I never would have tried, but I found a pair of Vince silk trousers in Teal that had been worn in a fashion show, marked down from $300.+ to $38.00! I will wear them with a burnt out velvet top I already own, and my new pointy toe black pumps. I'll be on the lookout for a pair of strappy sandals as well. I can see myself wearing this out or at home, and later it will go on vacation as resort PM look.</p> <p>So, long story over...thanks for the inspiration to think outside the box and involve DH. I guess I should add, DH really likes the outfit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holiday-outfit-idea#post-1084416 Thu, 14 Nov 2013 02:00:47 +0000 Anonymous 1084416@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>yep, ultra high waisted wide leg pants. I just found the perfect top for them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holiday-outfit-idea#post-1084375 Thu, 14 Nov 2013 01:30:37 +0000 Lauren 1084375@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>hahaha rockin the boat rachylou! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holiday-outfit-idea#post-1083955 Wed, 13 Nov 2013 20:00:55 +0000 rachylou 1083955@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Festive!</p> <p>But, no, this year I'm definitely doing green. And now that you mention it, I should add red... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holiday-outfit-idea#post-1083808 Wed, 13 Nov 2013 18:27:41 +0000 Alexandra 1083808@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cute outfit! I'm thinking sparkly silvery gray top with luxurious wide-leg wool pants. Like Lisa, I think sparkly for festive, not necessarily red/green. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holiday-outfit-idea#post-1083801 Wed, 13 Nov 2013 18:23:22 +0000 Lisa 1083801@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Pretty outfit!&nbsp; This year I'm thinking grey metallic skinny jeans and a sparkle tank layered with a blazer for holiday events.&nbsp; Sparkle says holiday to me, but no standard red or green. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/holiday-outfit-idea#post-1083747 Wed, 13 Nov 2013 17:43:50 +0000 Lauren 1083747@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have been brainstorming holiday outfit ideas recently and love the idea of going outside of my comfort zone with it. I.e. bright pinks like this (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://bit.ly/HYkNyE">http://bit.ly/HYkNyE</a>), sequins, etc.&nbsp;</p> <p>Anyone else have fun out of the box holiday ideas that don't include red and green? </p>
