BV's Holiday Party Style Guide

Filed under: Fashion Files, Shoes, Accessories

Party season is upon us, and besides the hassle of what to get your secret Santa, your biggest dilemma is what to wear. Maybe you're going to the company party and want to be appropriate, but still show your flare for style. Or maybe you want to go for full on glam for a night out with your girls. Whatever your style and whatever your budget, Black Voices has you covered with head to toe outfit ideas for every occasion.

If your party consists of a night with friends and you want to go all out, glam it up in a bold pattern or color. An over the top dress means keeping the rest of your look simple and clean. Classic patent black pumps and dainty accessories are all you need.

A little black dress is always a classy option for a more toned down, elegant look (i.e. office party, meeting the parents, etc). Jazz up the outfit with a bold hued shoe and statement accessories. If cash is tight, one simple LBD can be reworked numerous ways to create a new look each time.
