Metallics
Metallic pieces are obvious favorites during the holidays. Highlight your look by incorporating metallic accents into your accessories and outerwear choices, and coordinate with neutral shades.

Winter Whites
Embrace snowy hues this season with a little help from this frosty inspiration. Just be sure to handle your cocktails with care.
Faux-Fur Details
Faux fur adds a touch of old-school glam to any holiday look. Instead of a full furry coat that'll become completely impractical as soon as you're out of the cold, channel your inner party animal by completing your look with a cuddly scarf or vest.

Monochrome
Holiday cocktail parties are typically dominated by pops of festive color like red, green, or gold. This season, don't shy away from the drama, and go all out with a monochromatic look. The bold styles here definitely don't skimp on the season's favorite hues.
Sequins
As you enter 2016, allow yourself to sparkle, but retire your sequined tank dress in favor of something a bit more modern. These looks shine for their simplicity and are seasonal without feeling too over-the-top.
