8 Under $20: Get Ready For The Holiday Parties!
From our friends at CollegeCandy:
So Hanukkah begins on Friday and Christmas is 17 days away, which means it’s time for holiday parties, dinners, and gatherings of family and friends. And that means you’ll need some super cute looks to show off. Of course after buying gifts, paying travel expenses to go home, and all the other stuff you’ll be spending on this holiday season, spending money on yourself probably isn’t the most reasonable idea. But you don’t have to ruin your budget (or your reputation by re-gifting…) to look fantastic.
Here are 8 items under $20 that you can add to your wardrobe to make it extra festive.
Forever 21 has all the goods for the perfect holiday looks:
If you wanna shine this season, why not go for sequins? The one-shoulder combined with the short length makes this dress totally sexy without being skanky and you’ll definitely stand out in a crowd. Slip on some black tights, black pumps and a black boyfriend sweater for that holiday dinner. Then rock it again on NYE with some jewel toned stilettos or a hot pair of booties. Did I mention it’s only $15.50?
Looking for something a little more conservative or family-friendly? This dress is only $14.50 and gives a classic look a modern, fun and totally stylin’ twist.
Pair this top with a pair of black skinny pants or jeans, a cardi or a boyfriend blazer and a cute pair of flats for anything from a casual holiday soiree to dinner (at the kids’ table) with the entire extended family.
Wet Seal is another great spot for affordable and bangin’ pieces
Too cold for a dress but still wanna sparkle? Try some sequin leggings. They’re a great way to stay warm and look sassy all at the same time. Just pair them with a long, loose fitting top and you’re chic to go.
You can’t go wrong with a pencil skirt, especially a bandage-style skirt. You can wear this with just about anything for any occasion (a sparkly top for a party, a BF blazer for dinner) and look absolutely stunning, sexy and classy.
This dress is great for cocktail parties and will definitely give a fun, flirty look. You can go classic with some faux pearls, red shoes & lipstick, or give it an edge with more heavy, metallic jewelry and some studded booties.
If nothing at F21 or Wet Seal strikes your fancy, Charlotte Russe is bound to have something cheap and chic for you.
Wanna go for the tried and true dressy-top-with-jeans look? This top has a flattering cut, is grandparent-appropriate and still gives a little holiday sparkle with the rhinestone details. Add some black boots or strappy silver heels and you’re set.
Not comfortable in a pencil skirt? Opt for something flirty and feminine instead. Add a basic white tank and some tights and you’ve got an adorable and unique holiday look.

Be Dazzling Holiday Dressing
Put on your most glamorous glitterati look this holiday season. Pair black with shimmery crystals and sequins for a festive look. Get dressed up with these pretty items for the office party, fetes with friends or post-shopping cocktails. Combine black pieces you already own with updated accessories. Be sure to combine just a couple sparkly items (like a cocktail ring!) and accessorize with clean solid black accessories such as shoes for a truly dramatic holiday statement look. Wear a sequined blazer over skinny black leggings. Or why not wear a sequined mini with a black tee and leather moto jacket? Cover up in opaque black tights and non sparkly shoes for a streamlined leg extending look. Top it off with some super glossed-up lip shine and you’ll be all set for your best holiday look ever.
Shown here from from top left, clockwise: Rachel Rachel Roy Sequin Blazer, Style&co Sequin Foldover Clutch $22.99, DKNYC Sequined Miniskirt $77.99, MAC Viva Glam Tinted Lipglass $14.00, GUESS Jet Black Crystal Accent Ring $18.00, and Jessica Simpson Kullie Platform Pumps, $89.00.

Forever 21 Pick of Week: Double Breasted Wool Dress
Looking to bring a taste of elegance into your wardrobe without breaking the bank? Cue the Double Breasted Wool Dress, $32.80. With its double breasted styling oozing of mature sophistication and wool-blend felt construction this sleeveless dress (in black) is perfect for job interviews or making a chic impression. But this dress also comes in purple, which is a fun addition to a mostly neutral winter wardrobe.
