2 Add Accessories
Holiday parties are the perfect time to add accessories to your outfit to take it to the next level! Add a gold belt to your favourite LBD, a statement necklace and stud earrings for an amazing look which is super easy to pull off. Don't forget to finish it off with a pair of killer heels to totally turn heads!
3 Load up on Fashion Inspo
A great place to look for fashion inspo when it comes to holiday parties is the red carpet! Here you can flick through photos of sequin dresses, off the shoulder styles, cheeky cut-outs, embellishment for days and so much more. Look for celebs who have a similar skin tone, body shape and type to you as this can help hugely to know what could also look fab on you and your body!
4 Invest in Key Essentials
Key essentials are totally easy to pull off at any kind of holiday party. Of course it will all depend on your personal taste and style, but a few great go-to pieces are a metallic purse, satin blouse, print dress, and a pair of classy black heels. Don't forget to stock up on your own key essentials so you'll always have them ready to go!
5 Look and Feel Confident
I know this one isn't always as easy as it sounds as sometimes even when you're looking super glam you can still feel nervous or shy. However, try to remind yourself about why you're there and what you want: to turn heads! It can also help hugely to remind yourself that you look amazing, which should be a huge confidence booster!
6 Get Ready to Mingle
Okay so you might not be the most confident person ever and maybe sometimes you would rather be approached than actually be the one approaching others first, but at a holiday party one of the key ways to turn heads is to bite the bullet and be the first one to initiate a conversation! If you make the rounds and get to talk to several people at the event, people are bound to notice you!
7 Light up the Room
Any woman can light up a room! The easiest way to do this is to smile and laugh - appear totally carefree! Laugh at any jokes (even if they're not funny) and take every opportunity to smile and show off your pearly whites while you mingle and chit chat! This will also help you hugely to feel more confident about yourself and to enjoy the moment 😃 ✨
