'Tis the season

| | Friends! If this is going to be you from now until December 24th, have I got a newsletter for you. This week, I'm offering up some outfit ideas for the various party dress codes you may encounter throughout the next month or so.

| | This is undoubtedly the most broad of all seasonal dress codes. When I see "festive" on the invite, my mind immediately thinks of colors (silver, blue, red, green, gold) and fabrics (velvet, satin, sequin) that scream "holiday." Take, for example, this metallic brocade dress. The fabric rises to the occasion, but can be tempered if you're worried about looking too on-the-nose with a pair of chunky black boots and an oversized work jacket. |

| | If you automatically think of a black dress when you read "cocktail" or "semi-formal," why not try something else this season? A silky-chocolate brown, T-length dress is still code-appropriate. A leopard print clutch adds an unexpected dash of texture to the look. |

| | Most office holiday parties are pretty low-key these days, so feel free to wear denim. The trick is to dress it up a bit on top—I'm taking inspiration from the many fashion people I've seen wearing a tuxedo jacket and shirt recently. Satin flats also lend a luxe touch. |

| | There are so few times in your life that you'll get to wear a gown or proper tuxedo, so take this opportunity and really go the distance. Even if it's not a mandate, why not? Life is short! Wear your finest. |
