How To Dress For All The Christmas Parties This Season

When it comes to style, I look for inspiration everywhere- runways, red carpets, art, nature. But, no matter where the inspiration comes from, the key is to translate it in a way that it is not only attainable, but comfortable, for you and, in the case of your holiday photo, your family.

 

These festive looks will have you perfectly dressed for every special occasion this winter, whether you’re attending a Christmas dinner, office soirée, or New Year’s bash. It’s going to be one sparkling season.

Best Matte Nails To Rock This Fall

Matte nails are Fall’s biggest nail trend for a few years now. It started off with the matte black and has quickly spread to all designs and colors – red, grey, white, blue, etc. When we think of a nice manicure, our mind immediately jumps to shiny, well-maintained nails. But sometimes we need something different – something edgier. Matte nails will give you that statement grunge look.

Check out our favorite ways to do matte nails, just in time for fall!

How to wear LOB ´s

Hair trends come and go, but there’s one in particular this season that seems to stand out: the lob. I know, I know…what, exactly, is a lob? A “lob” is short for “long bob”- A long, shaggy layered, collarbone length cut that fits virtually every face shape, hair texture, and color. Its versatility makes it a popular choice for anyone looking to change up their ‘do. Celebs like Jennifer Lawrence, Selena Gomez, T-Swift, and Alexa Chung have all been rocking the look this year, and for good reason. It’s put together while simultaneously seeming effortless, and brings a chic feel to any look.

The great thing about this cut is that you can go 2 to 3 days without washing your hair because it’s so convenient to style. You can transition from straight, to wavy, to half up with ease- add a little dry shampoo in there and consider yourself good to go. Here are four ways that you can style the “lob”:

 SLEEK AND STRAIGHT

Easy enough, right? Just flat iron out any wave or curl in your hair to achieve this smooth look. We chose a side part, but a middle part looks great as well…this style can easily transition from night or day with little-to-no touch ups in between.

HALF-UP HIGH PONY

This look works on Day 1 or even Day 3 hair. Take the style from #1, gather half of your hair up into a ponytail at the crown of your head, pull hair slightly from the roots to add some volume on top, and voila! For a more dramatic, night-out look, you can use more hair for the ponytail (think Ariana Grande). Add some smoothing serum on the ends if they feel dry from the day before.
