Stay Hot without Freezing in Your Winter Formal

| | Comments (2) | TrackBacks (0)

No one wants to step out of a limo in a frumpy, Victorian, turtleneck dress just to stay warm during fancy wintry occasions. To avoid shivering and stay shimmering on your big night, use these vital tips to nip those goose bumps in the bud.

- Flaunt the right shawl or jacket for your dress. Pair a loose-armed, cropped cashmere jacket with a slim gown. Faux fur wraps match well with silk fabric, but avoid mixing sequins and fur. There is no glamour in gaudy.

- Wearing a fuller gown? Avoid bulk by wearing a thin wrap around your shoulders and an up-do to balance fabric usage.

- If your dress is simple and classic, take advantage of the season and go velvet with a stole or jacket.

- On breezy winter nights, steer clear of large, revealing cutouts in your gown's torso. A chilly draft on the tummy or back? No thanks.

- Hose aren't just for Grandma. Skin tone panty hose give your legs a sleek, evenly colored sheen. No more frozen toes in stilettos this February.

- Elbow-length gloves keep arms toasty. Pair gloves with bare, slim dresses and strapless gowns. For fuller dresses or sleeved shoulders, wrist-length gloves do the trick. Avoid too tight gloves with elastic that leave marks on your wrists or upper arms.

- With gloves, wraps, stoles and jackets, make sure your accessory's fabric doesn't clash with your dress. Avoid prints on accessories, unless it's minimal and faint. Loud prints on accessories will draw attention away from your fabulous dress, hair and face.

- Wear your hair down to keep your neck and shoulders cozy. With this no-fuss tip, you will save cash and body heat on your big night out.

Remember, you can always check accessories at the door. So go strapless and stay snug this winter in your elegant evening gown with our hot selection of toasty ideas.
