It’s that time of year again where everything we see seems to be blinking red, green, gold or silver especially when we go to holiday parties. The holiday season is the time everyone pulls out their favorite red sweater or jacket with gold metallic threads running through it or that Christmas green cashmere sweater with their red, green, and white reindeer motif scarf. You know what I’m talking about. They even have parties called the “Ugliest Christmas Sweater” party.
Dare to be different this festive time of year and dress in a variation of the traditional holiday colors. Below are examples from our Carlisle | Per Se and ETCETERA collections that will make you stand out -in a positive way- at all the holiday parties and events you’ll be attending this season. From Thanksgiving through New Year’s Day and beyond.
Each of these pieces can be dressed up or down depending on the dress code of your party. Have fun and look stunning all at the same time.
Instead of the traditional ‘Holly Green’ or ‘Christmas Green,’ try these colors: PINE, MIST, TEAL, or TOURMALINE for a change. Switch out the tops for entirely different outfits and looks; taking you from casual to festive.
