Uptown polish with plenty of downtown cool. This look is all about complementing your silhouette. A flowing dress, belted in velvet with a crystal buckle, worn under a sleek velvet blazer with a nipped-in waist. Black satin bowed shoes pull it all together. And to make it extra festive, a sparkling clutch and the prettiest white topaz/white sapphire drop earrings, or else pink for extra color. Click the links to shop:
