New Endings, New Beginnings...

Welcome back fashionistas! I want to thank you for following me throughout 2008 and allowing me to guide you through the ever changing journey to style heaven. Since I missed you during the gift giving season I decided to impart a belated gift of style wisdom. As you celebrate the final strokes of 2008 I want to leave you some ideas for an elegant, classy, savvy and chic look.

I will begin with my favorite favorite favorite (hint to those givers of favorite gifts) color of all time, coral!

The coral cocktail dress will draw attention as it is not a subtle color by any means. It is not necessary to dramatically accessorize with this color, but I'm a fan of over-the-top when donning coral. When you step out in this favorite favorite favorite color of mine, be sure to minimize attention to unflattering bulges and curves. All eyes will be on you!. Wear dramatic heels, voluminous locks, and dangling eye catching earrings. If you choose to go simple, wear an elegant updo and a dramatic clutch to compliment the look. Either way, you can't go wrong! Here are a few examples of how to do coral...

And you will find more options on the sites listed below... Moving on!

Gold, rust, bronze and brown are beautiful looks for this extravagant affair. Dress it up, play it down, you can't go wrong. If you wear a dramatic dress compliment it with a simple upswept do or a dramatic chignon anchored by sequined clips. Dangly earrings will set off a strapless bustline will sparkly studs will compliment a sequined halter.

Purple is certainly still a royal color. Bring out your regal side while remaining true to your style sense. Every fashionista knows that it's possible to do both. Don't overdo it with bulky fabrics that will make you look like Grimace, but wear a simple cut with beaded or sequined detail to add a little flair.

Wine, Cranberry, Apple, these are beautiful colors for bringing in 2009. This look compliments most people, but you must know your limitations. And in the event that you spill a bit of Cabernet Sauvignon, you will have much less trouble hiding it!











The black cocktail dress: You can't go wrong here, unless you wear it with the wrong shoes. Here are some optional shoe styles that may compliment this look. Don't forget to accessorize, as the dress may be too simple alone.

There are are so many color and style options that you shouldn't feel limited. You can keep it simple with black or you can opt for a bold color and simple accessories. Whatever you choose, make sure it compliments you and wows the crowd.

As the new year approaches I just want to wish everyone a Happy New Year in advance. Spend this time to reflect on how you progressed in 2008 and what you can do to make 2009 even better.
