    2017 Christmas and New Year’s Eve Party Outfits

    2017 Christmas and New Year’s Eve Party Outfits

    With all the upcoming Christmas and New Year’s Eve parties just around the corner, it’s time to start thinking about different outfit options for every occasion. In the next couple of weeks, it’s better to prepare for both family Christmas meetings and girly New Year’s night outs, and to put together both elegant and sultry outfits. Taking inspirations from the season’s biggest women’s winter fashion trends, we created our very own festive outfit ideas.

     

    Sultry Mesh

    One of the biggest favorites this season, without a doubt would have to be mesh overlay dresses. Mesh not only creates a beautiful, sexy illusion, it also accentuates your shape and makes any outfit more trendy and interesting. Our two picks for the festive Christmas and New Year’s eve party season is our Side Split Mesh Evening Dress, which adds a dramatic touch to your look, while the puff, sequin sleeves keep the dress romantic.

    Our other absolute favorite is the Polka Dots Mesh Dress, which is a bit more fun and bohemian compared to the evening dress version. Besides the classic black and white polka dots, this dress also features a pretty mini length and ruffled edges. Mesh can be paired with almost any accessory, but to emphasize its girly vibe, we recommend wearing our mesh dresses with statement earrings and lace gloves.

                   

     

    Festive Velvet

    Velvet is without a doubt the most popular fabric of the 2017 winter season, and we perfectly understand the reason behind it: velvet is a gorgeous, royal material with an elegant warmth and shine to it, so it makes the perfect Christmas and New Year’s Eve party outfits. Sofelo offers a wide range of velvet dresses, our two favorites are the Velvet Wrap Mini Dress, which has a gorgeous wine red shade and a figure hugging wrap design, and the Tie Back Velvet Cami Dress with a cute, romantic bow on the back and a sultry mini length. Velvet looks stunning with metallic or pearl accessories, so don’t be afraid to rock this dress with a peal clutch and gold or silver stilettos.

                 

     

    Sophistacted Midi Length

    You can never go wrong with an elegant, subtle midi dress. Because of its length, it’s appropriate to any event, so it’s just perfect for Christmas work or family parties, where you want to show your more sophisticated side. Although midi length can make your legs look a bit shorter, you can easily cancel that effect by wearing nude or patent leather high heels, which will make your legs appear longer. Our picks for the 2017 holiday season for festive outfits are the Off Shoulder Ruffle Midi Dress and the Halterneck Bodycon Midi Dress. While the off shoulder is a classic choice with ruffles emphasizing your neck and shoulder area, the halterneck is a more risky choice, which is perfect if you would like to show off your figure. For midi length dresses, we recommend wearing high heels with a cropped leather jacket or blazer to keep the right proportions of your figure.

                      

     

    Romantic Lace

    Lace has a timeless elegance and beauty, so it’s understandably very popular during the holiday seasons. Whether you want to pick an innocent white lace dress or a dramatic wine red or black one, it will create a sophisticated and effortless vibe. Lace is a versatile fabric that you can mix with anything, such as a velvet blazer (for family dinners) or a pair of patent leather heels and metallic jacket (for the New Year’s Eve party to stand out). If you prefer a more traditional look over constantly changing trends, you will fall in love with lace this winter. Our picks are the Little Black Lace Dress, which is a new, cold shoulder take on the classy LBD with intricate black lace overlay, and the Vintage Ruffle Lace Dress, which features a stunning ruffle skirt, long sleeves and a sturdy lace overlay.

                

     

     

     Stunning Sequin

     If you want to add an extra sparkle to your look, sequin dresses are going to be your go-to looks this season. Although they can be quite extravagant, they are also very versatile with lots of different styling otpions. For a Christmas party with your family, we recommend matching it with a clean cut black blazer or a chunky knit cardigan for that festive vibe. On the other hand, rock a mesh jacket or a pair of thigh high boots with your sequin dress for the year’s biggest night out and be the star of the night! For either occasion, we’ve got your perfect match. The V Neck Sequin Tassels Party Dress has a low back cut out (and it looks absolutely breathtaking with a gold drop back chain) with extra tassels for an 1920’s Great Gatsby vibe, and our other pick, the Sequin Plunge Mini Dress is a gorgeous printed sequin dress with sultry, thin straps and a shift silhouette.

                  

    Sofelo Christmas Gift Guide

    Sofelo Christmas Gift Guide

    We all have different types of friends – while some of them love dressing up and playing with new fashion trends, others just want to make it as comfortable and cozy as possible. To help you out in the maze of gift ideas, we created our gift guide for the five most popular fashion styles!

     

     

    The Bohemian

    Finding a gift for your boho chic friend can be very easy! As a bohemian, free spirit, your friend loves very specific styles and designs – floral and animal patterns, loose fits, short rompers, frilled maxi dresses and kimonos can be her favorites for any season. When looking for a gift for her, make sure to choose something that screams fun and playful, and instead of rigid materials and fancy appliques and crystals, search for embroidery, earth colors light materials.

     

    Our tips:

    Floral Romper

    This beautiful, off shoulder romper with the white cut-out detailing, the floral print and the frilled neckline will definitely remind your friend of spontaneous summer holidays and beach parties.

     

    Embroidered Denim Jacket

    There is nothing more fun than an oversized, vintage denim jacket with colorful floral embroidery and the beautiful coin trend!

     

    What else?

    For a bohemian girl like her, we recommend choosing a small set of natural bath bombs and body butters, or a cute, boho chic home décor item.

     

     

    The Comfy Girl

     She likes things oversized and comfortable, without any unnecessary hassle…so for the “comfy” girl, you might want to search for something that’s cozy and warm (especially for winter), yet still stylish and fashion forward. Chunky knit sweaters and long cardigans are always winners, as she can wrap herself up in them while still looking cute. Before choosing the perfect gift, go for neutral colors that she can easily mix and match with everything else in her closet, such as beige, brown, white or ecru.

     

    Our tips:

    V Neck Knitted Sweater 

    With the dropped, off shoulder design and the cozy chunky knit, this sweater is the perfect gift idea for your friend! 

     

    Batwing Shawl Cardigan

    Who could not fall in love with this deep beige batwing cardigan that she can easily wear with basic white tank tops and T-shirts? 

     

    What else?

    A pair of fuzzy socks or a DIY hot chocolate set with a mug and marshmallows are great details to accompany the sweater.

     

     

    The Fashionista

    She is the girl who is always up to date with the newest trends. She is not afraid to experiment, and always looks like a celebrity surrounded by paparazzi. Her style perfectly represents her confidence and interest in fashion, so gifting her clothes will definitely melt her heart. Make sure to find something that’s timeless with a youthful edge to it. Anything that’s a bit more modern and extravagant can work, such as studded or faux fur pieces, mini skirt and interesting materials. For inspiration, take a look at the latest cat walks and don’t be afraid to choose something daring that only she can pull off.

      

    Our Tips:

    Pink Suede Dress

    Lace up dresses are a huge trend this season, especially in this unique, pink suede material. She can pair this beautiful mini dress with over the knee boots or a black balzer for a more formal overall look.

    The Vintage Lover

    We all have that friend who lives in the past when it comes to fashion. Beautiful midi dresses, polka dot prints, kitten heels, red lipstick and antique flares – these are the details that describe her style the best, and she would probably never wear something that’s not sophisticated. To surprise her, try to look for something that blends vintage fashion into today’s trends, this way, she’s getting the best of both worlds.

     Dresses, high heels, always curled hair and stunning accessories…you could easily tell if your friend is a girly girl! For her, try to stick with the more romantic and cute theme and pick out flared dresses, off shoulder rompers, pink duster coats or anything that’s lace or embroidered. While it’s a very unique style, your friend will exactly know how to rock it and how to pair different feminine elements together.
