Fashion Rx: Your weekly dose of what to wear!

It's party time and you want to make a statement but you don't know how strong.  Can you start with a pinch and later decide if you want to really add some punch? Of course! That's what is so great about one of this season's sparkly trends!

The Cure: Start Small

A cropped black pant, simple white silk tank, embellished lapel blazer, and a pop of color with a great Sam Edelman party pump is a superb way to start. You've got  your sparkle and shine, a pop of color, and a tasteful ensemble that isn't over the top.

Second Opinion: BAM! Kick it up a notch

Obviously start with a cocktail dress that has it's own subtle sparkle, create interest with a sequined cardigan, play up the shine with patent platforms, and add your pop of color with a beaded clutch...if you're worried this is a little monochromatic, consider playing with textures and the level of shine.  You want to stand out, but not be outlandish.

Deck the Halls...

...with your wardrobe this holiday season.  Brilliant beads, stunning sequins, and radiant rhinestones should decorate your ensembles for all of your festivities.  According to this month's Vogue,

"Match a few brilliant pieces to a shimmering dress, or pair one standout with winter's neutral palette to make a strong statement."

Sequined cocktail dresses, beaded clutches, studded stilettos, and big blingy rings are vital for this vibrant style. Light up the night with sparkle and shine.
