Stiletto heels/ballerina For a trendy and bold look, pick a chunky statement necklace mixing pearls with other gems, rhinestones, combinations of metals and other precious or semi-precious stones

Red lipstick and a high heel add just enough festive flair for a work holiday party

It turns out that trying to find a dress that flatters six different people is a challenge
