Have a Ball this Holiday: CoolJunkie Holiday Fashion Picks
December 21, 2008 5:01 PMby Bridgette Prentice
It’s our belief that the holiday season is the best time to shop. It’s the time when fashion is at its most fabulous, innovation peaks and stores are filled to the brim. Many designers create awe-inspiring outfits with iridescent fabrics, silks and chiffons. Colors become richer, whites begin to glow and black is the epitome of elegance. Shoes and accessories become art and make eye-popping new statements. Whatever our fashion preferences are during the festive season, it seems we always find a lot more to decorate than just the tree.
Inspired by the organdy black dress covered in white circular disks off the Christopher Kane Fall 2008 runway and in true holiday spirit and piazzas, we’ve stuck with the original holiday decoration and found how it translates into fashion. Girls, here are a few fashion accessories and then some to help you have a “ball” this season.
The Taja Mahal Crystal-Ball Necklace:
JCrew.com boasts this stunning gold plated necklace that hangs mid torso. If you purchase one item from the list it should be this! Find it in any JCrew store or at www.jcrew.com.
The Speakeasy Cocktail Ring: This 1” in height ring is covered in Swarovski crystals and faux pearls with a smoky quartz set in Lucite. Visit www.alexisbittar.com.
The Freelook Rose Gold Watch: Decorate your arm with this sleek and strong chronograph timepiece with both timekeeping and stopwatch functions. Go to www.pinkmascara.com.
The Redonda Purse: This real leather purse by Nazly Villamizar (a local Miami designer) fits comfortably under your arm with a perfectly circular armhole and overall round shape. Get it on her website www.nazlyv.com.
Balmain Ambre Gris Perfume: This perfume was released in March 2008, but its design and scent cannot go unmentioned. It’s described by Balmain as “woodsy-animalic-oriental” in scent, and the design is striking with its large spherical top. The best part is that it can be for both male and female. Find it at www.parfum1.com.
Sergio Rossi Heels: These rust studded leather sphere heels are from Spring/Summer ’08, but fit perfectly into the trend. They are by far one of the most innovative designs in awhile. Online at www.sergiorossi.com.
The Cover Glasses: This round pair of sunglasses with thick black rims from Dita Legends is a throwback to the 60’s in true Edie Sedgwick style. Visit www.ditalegends.com.
The Wool Beret: This red beret from American Apparel is perfect for a chilly night out with cute cocktail attire. Available at www.americanapparel.net. Now you are fully equipped with all the fashion trimmings needed for an event-filled end to 2008.
