Holiday Party Dresses
Have your usual holiday parties that you attend each year coming up and you have already worn all the dresses you have to them in the past few years? Or do you have a new party to go to and you are not sure of what to wear?  From Thanksgiving to New Years there are plenty of reasons to dress up! Check out this season's holiday outfit trends.
 
Formal
 bcbg black dress  
long gown
Maxi dresses ruled our summers, so go long or go home this winter, too! The black BCBG dress is great because it is whimsical and unique.  Red is one of the biggest pop colors this season, and it is always a holiday favorite hue. The peplum on the red dress adds an amazing silhouette. And the blue striped number adds curves for days!

 
Cocktail
 lace layered black dress  
Impeccable styling on this silver sequined mini! Black tights ground all the sparkle while the red shoes pop against the color palette. The lace and layers on the black dress work well for almost every bodytype and age range. And the satin shift has an amazing beaded neckline to draw all the attention to your face as you pose for family portraits and pictures with friends.
 
Casual
anthropologie green dress  banana republic knit dress
Try wearing a simple knit, wrap or sweater dress to go from the office straight to a holiday celebration or gathering.  Pair with printed tights for a fun sexy look, and add a statement necklace or chandelier earrings once 5:00 hits!
 
Switch it up
 
Wear a tux or dress up shorts for an unexpected twist!
 
**Feeling overwhelmed at all of your options? Want to think outside of the box but not sure how far out there is too far? Unsure of what's appropriate to wear to an office party?
 
Have Tricia go shopping with you to pick out the perfect celebration ensembles!
Black Friday Madness: What's Your Strategy?
 girl shopping
 Another year and another Black Friday.  Have you started your plan  of attack to your favorite stores?  Stores will be open early and will stay open much later than usual.  This can be the time to get some great deals for yourself or the best time to check some items off your Christmas present list!
 
Keep in mind the best way to cover the most ground during this busy day is to shop with a partner! Shopping with a friend will help you, so if you miss something on the sales floor (and the sales associate is busy helping others) your friend may have a chance to spot that must have item.  It is also helpful to research the sales and hit the places with the most expensive items or limited quantity items first.
 
Care to skip the madness altogether? Or you cant be in the two places at the same time? Trust in Tricia does do shopping trips, and Black Friday is no holiday for us!  If you would like to schedule an appointment to go shopping email or call us and we can make a shopping trip for Black Friday to make sure you take full advantage of promotions!
 *Please note Black Friday shopping trips are limited and space and on a first reserve first serve basis. So plan ahead and schedule your time slot soon!
