Holiday Fashion Quick Fixes

A Sparkly Top

All things glittery are making a comeback as designers and
stars take a shine to the festive look, so look in the far
recesses of your closet for those neglected Lurex (shimmery
flecks of metallic) or lame pieces. Gold is the No. 1 color,
with bronze and platinum metallics not far behind.

Wear a Lurex shell under a black jacket for a polished
corporate look. Try a sleeveless cowl neck with leather
pants. Pair a slim shimmering sweater with velvet drawstring
pants.

Instant Holiday Style

- Something red.
- Anything velvet
- Warm, spicy perfume

Bedazzling

Shoes, wraps, necklaces, handbags. Think about what you
already own that has a little zip from beadwork. Skip head-
to-toe glitz and go with accent pieces. Wear necklaces
grouped together, crystal bracelets in jewel tones, or
beaded mules. Just make sure the outfit it accents is simple enough to show off your beaded wonders. Feeling crafty? Make it yourself with the Beadwork Guide.

Just Beautiful

Even if you only have five minutes to transform yourself into a goddess, you can use makeup you already own. Lush red lips, smoky eyes and shimmery face powder are three quick fixes. Take a little more time and really accent every lash with mascara and apply flawless foundation with a sponge. Get more tips from the Beauty Guide.

Important Jewelry

Don't worry if you can't afford the real stuff, costume
jewelry is ideal for party fare. Try a luxe brooch with a
simple, dressy tunic and soft pants. Layer ropes of pearls on a plain jewel-neck drss. Pin up your hair with a rhinestone barrette.
