From the Red Carpet to Thanksgiving Festivities!

Be it a Thanksgiving dinner or gala, the occasion calls for megatons of glamour and positive vibes. Dressing up for a holiday party with a degree of balance and creativity requires an eclectic spirit, good research, and some shopping that will end up complementing current treasures in your closet. Maybe you need a new pair of sky-high heels, on-trend plaid items, a bit of Victorian lace or embroidery, a sparkly clutch or a fluffy, fury stole. Looking at recent outings on the red carpet gives always a breath of fresh air to our personal style. We need to evolve and step it up. Change is a good thing, even when it happens with minor twists. Keep your original attitude untouched, but play around with elements that elevate it to a fashionable choice. Pick clothes and accessories that flatter you most, creating a desirable silhouette without compromising your comfort. Stay true to yourself but also to your need to celebrate and have fun. It’s Thanksgiving!

Just go through my favorite red carpet looks and pay attention to key elements in each one of them! I’ll be your guide!

Singer Debi Nova at the 16th Annual Latin GRAMMY Awards wearing Thomas Wylde. Nova, who was hosting the award show, stunned in the silver ‘Adam’ gown from the LA-based design house’s PS16 collection. Grecian draping with a fancy belt is a timeless combo!

Singer Margot flanked by her friends at her “Isn’t She Lovely” Single and Film Premiere presented by chez conversations at The Standard, East Village, NYC, attended by Liza Voloshin, Cleo Wade, Mia Moretti, Kate Greer, Amirah Kassem, Annette Stephens, Dev Hynes, Elle Dee, Fiona Byrne, Francesco Clemente, Gigi Burris, Jonathan Simkhai, Julie Heller, Kyle Hotchkiss Carone, Logan Horne, May Kwok, Michele Civetta, Morgan Collett, Natalia Kills, Pania Rose, Sabine Heller, Thaddeus O’neil, Timo Weiland, and more. Girls in the pic opted for warm coral and deep orange tones combined with black accents. So cool!

Actress Jena Malone attended the red carpet premiere of ‘The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2’ in Los Angeles wearing Gauri & Nainika. The Golden Globe nominee rocked an empire waist gown with a straight line silhouette with paneled side detailing in blush by the esteemed designers. This neutral is attention-grabbing!

Fashionista and blogger Chriselle Lim attended the 2015 Baby2Baby Gala presented by MarulaOil & Kayne Capital Advisors Foundation honoring Kerry Washington at 3LABS in Los Angeles wearing Indian- based design duo Gauri & Nainika. The stylish new momma killed it in a light pink asymetrical gown with rose detailing by the brand. Her strappy sandals were in hot pink, showing that this is a great romantic and playful color for special moments. Texture is a prerequisite too!

Actress Olivia Wilde attended the Los Angeles premiere of her new movie ‘Love The Coopers’ wearing INGIE Paris. The new mom opted for a tea-length blue and white striped dress from the brand’s SS16 collection, which debuted at Paris Fashion Week. This time pick a not so traditional color combo to stand out from the dark wintery crowd!

Stella Maxwell wore a Maria Lucia Hohan dress to the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show after party at TAO Downtown in New York City. Ballerina chic is always a charming option!

Shanina Shaik wore a Maria Lucia Hohan Resort ’16 dress to Angel Ball 2015 hosted by Gabrielle’s Angel Foundation at Cipriani Wall Street in New York City. Shades of gold (or mustard yellow) are always festive!

Happy Glamorous Thanksgiving, ladies!!!
