Bordeaux and Bling Holiday Party Look

Hello again Angels!

Back with some more outfit inspiration for the holidays.  Our last post was oh-so-fab and didn't hold back on the glamour.  If you missed it, check it out here.
So, we wanted to be sure to follow up with something a little more tame for those social settings where you may want to dress to impress but keep it simple (read:  you significant other's boss' Christmas party!)
For this look, it's head to toe bordeaux (also known as burgundy, oxblood, etc).  Blush pairs so beautifully with this hue, so we couldn't resist topping it off with this Zara blazer.  And let's not forget the megawatt bling on the ears,  neck and in hand to really make things festive.

We would love to hear your questions and comments below.  Hope you like!
Until next time,
Happy Holidays!

Holiday Party Glam!!!

Hello Angels,

With Christmas and NYE fast approaching, we Pretty Prescribers know you will be wracking your brains and tearing through your closets looking for something chic to wear to all those parties that you've been invited to.
Here, we've created a look built around this amazing skirt (center) from Top Shop at Nordstrom:


Black Portofino blouse: Express, Only $35.94.
Via Spiga caged platform sandal booties: Bloomingdale's
Black embossed python clutch: Gigi New York
Kenneth Jay Lane emerald drop earrings: Amazon
Tassel Necklace:  J. Crew (pictured sold out), similar here.  Can also easily find on eBay!
Faux fur bolero: Nordstrom
UrbanDecay24/7 eyeliner in Goldmine: Sephora

A skirt this amazing with such eye-catching detail needs to be paired with relatively simpler details.  You want to look glamourous, not tacky and overdone!  If you're going for serious glam we like this faux fur jacket in lieu of a regular dress coat.  The classic jewels and clutch add refined, on-trend yet understated touches to this overall glam outfit.
And of course don't forget the makeup!  We love the many ways you can use eyeliner to instantly (and easily) glam up your makeup look without much fuss.  Urban decay's 24/7 pencil in Goldmine, applied in a thin line just above regular black eyeliner will draw lots of attention to your eyes all night.  For more info on different eyeliners that will also pair really well with this look, check out this post.

We hope you like it and maybe are inspired to pull pieces from your closet that you already own to re-create this look!  Please share your thoughts, questions and ideas in the comments.

Until next time,
Happy Holidays!
