It's precisely halfway through the holiday season and you've been to more parties than you can remember. With more than two weeks to go until New Year's Eve, cobbling together a chic outfit is starting to turn into a struggle. Here's the trick: Stop overthinking. Sure, you can go and hunt down some crazy sequin dress for one memorable night but then that look is forever documented on Instagram.
Instead, try a simple, elegant black dress jazzed up with some great accessories. This Atea Oceanie style features a plunging back, but if you'd rather get the look for a lot less, Modern Citizen has a version that has the same minimalist feel. Then add gigantic sparkly earrings and finish with colorful velvet pumps for a restrained but festive outfit.
