For holiday parties I love wearing just one color in various textures...velvet, lace, sequins. All of the above. Shine is important, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tell-me-how-can-you-turn-an-outfit-into-holiday-attire#post-258354 Tue, 30 Nov 2010 18:02:26 +0000 Laura 258354@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Of course the party isn't over, keep the suggestions coming!<br /> I like the ideas around red.

Joy had a few good ideas:</p> <p>-- add a red satin ribbon as a belt<br /> -- use her mom's rhinestone necklaces from the 50s<br /> -- add a holiday brooch</p> <p>Any other brainstorms? What can you add to an existing outfit in your closet that just screams "holiday" to you? </p>
