A jingle jangle is in the air, which means it's time to p-a-r-t-y! We love holiday get-togethers and the spirit of the season -- but between us, we're kind of tired of seeing so. many. sequined. dresses.
Got a casual party coming up, or even a fancy-schmancy cocktail party? Try going subtle with the sparkle this season and look for items with just a hint of glint. Look for keywords such as shimmer, glitter, shine and sparkle when looking for these quietly elegant pieces. Trust us: the compliments on your glow will roll right on in.
A Neighborhood Holiday Cocktail Party
This outfit is not only a great way to wear a crop top without showing a ton of tummy, it's also a great update on everyone's favorite party skirt. A little glitter in the tulle goes a long way and is complemented nicely by the slight metallic yarn in the crop top. Taking cues from the blue waistband, we've added blue slingbacks and some bling up near your face for an outfit to remember.

A Holiday Night Out with The Girls
Sleek, sexy, and ready for a night out: this outfit will catch the light in all the right ways. An asymmetrical top works nicely with black, slightly shiny leggings and some don't-mess-with-me booties. For texture, add some sparkle around your neck and pony hair clutch in a fun color and get ready to have drinks sent your way all night.
