transitional holiday party look for less

Hi! This Tuesday is all about transitions, and the perfect holiday party look for less! This styling works for every one of the endless holiday gatherings! Guys, this week on thefashionfuse.com it’s ALL about holiday party attire. From casual to formal/affordable to high end, don’t miss a single post!

The pieces on the left are splurge-worthy, and the items on the right are priced “right”! So, in this holiday party post every transitional piece is under $150.

Splurge Worthy

Camel Coat | Red Striped Trousers | Creme Sweater

Pom Pom Earrings | Pink Clutch | Satin Boots

Look for Less

Camel Coat | Red Cropped Trousers | Creme Sweater

Pom Pom Earrings | Pink Clutch | Satin Boots

Pants

For starters, a good red trouser is an essential, so adding stripes is a no brainer. The cropped pants on the right are a killer transitional piece because they work for day or night styling. Likewise, if you want a flare leg, then rock the designer pair from Italy on the left.

Sweaters

Now, both of these options put a twist on the classic creme sweater. I love the Topshop lace up on the right or the bold contrast on the Joseph jumper. Further, style the sweater by tucking into the red trouser and let the sleeves do the talking.

Coats

Also, as you can tell by my recent post about coats, you can’t miss out on a camel coat. It is the transitional piece of the century! You can wear it September-February! In addition to this, it just looks good with everything. Topshop does a great job with it or spend a pretty penny on this Theory number.

Boots

Now, the pink satin boots are a must with the red trousers. Pink and red together, when combined right, is show stopping! Be sure to stick with the Stuart Weitzman or Dolce Vita version of this and you won’t go wrong.

Accessories

In addition to all this, Pom Pom earrings are everywhere and I’m not mad about it. Snag these basics from Madewell or from Kate Spade with a little sparkle. Now, bring out those nude pinks with a detailed clutch. Christian Louboutin puts a rad spin on things with the geometric pattern, or try this simple Nordstrom Nina beauty.

Thanks friends for reading! Stay tuned for more exciting holiday styling this week. You won’t want to miss it!
