You could
rock a hot cocktail dress for a holiday party but maybe
you're more of a jeans-and-T-shirt kind of gal.
Janine Chilton-Faust
, vice president of women's design for Levi's, shared
these tips on dressing up denim this season.
Fit: It's
important to find the right pair of jeans for your body
shape and style. The styles to shop for this holiday
season are the skinny, the jean legging, the boyfriend
and slim flare. If you find the one that suits your
style and complements your figure best, you can't go
wrong.
Color:
Jeans come in a variety of washes, but when planning
your holiday party outfit, remember: the darker, the
better. Dark washes — blue, black and gray — are
typically more slimming and offer a dressier, more
polished look.
Tops:
Pair your jeans with a flirty top, tunic or camisole in
sheer or washed shiny fabrics. Looking for a little
spice in your outfit? Try a sequin top for the ultimate
festive and fun holiday look. Jackets and vests are a
nice layer up, especially if they have a little sheen or
sparkle to them.
Accessories:
Accessories are an easy way to dress up any outfit. Add
a beaded or sequined clutch handbag to take your look
from day to night. For jewelry, the bigger the bling,
the better. Don't be afraid to mix it up, combining
pearls, gems and metals.
Shoes:
Shoes are a girl's best friend. Let the denim be the
only casual piece of your look by pairing your jeans
with sexy heels, sequin ballet flats or short ankle
boots.
