Celebrate In Gold And Lace

There's no better time to add sparkle to your wardrobe than now according to "Glamour" magazine's December issue. Executive fashion director Suze Yalof Schwartz joins The Saturday Early Show with four great holiday looks appropriate for any festive party.

Suze says color, and details such as beading and bows, can make an outfit special. You will see lace, velvet, and chiffon on many looks this holiday season. Sexy, seductive fan earrings that dangle around your neck are great, too.

Here are the outfits:

BCBG gold lace dress $195
Frederick's of Hollywood gold shoes $89

Lace was hot on the runways. The combination of both trends really works here. Suze says if there is one color to choose this season, let it be gold. According to Suze, the BCBG gold lace dress is a good investment piece because we're seeing a lot of gold and lace into spring and summer 2003. Wear it with gold shoes from Frederick's of Hollywood.

Anopia long red dress $300
Stuart Weitzman shoes $250

Suze says New Year's Eve is not about wearing black. She says it's a special evening, and it deserves a special color. This long Anopia dress needs few accessories - the red color makes a big statement. We're seeing a lot of beading this season on top of flowing chiffon dresses. A dress like this is the perfect dress for a black tie New Year's eve event. Wear it with shoes by Stuart Weitzman.

French Connection cardigan $98
French Connection skirt $128
Jockey camisole $25
Stuart Weitzman shoes $200

Suze says this French Connection cardigan and skirt with a Jockey camisole is the perfect office party look. It's dressy, but easy to wear to the office, and a flattering look on all body types. It's comfortable and affordable. She says nothing is easier than pairing a cardigan with a beaded skirt. This look is very similar to what we saw on the summer runways. This is appropriate for the office because according to Suze "the only cleavage people should see there is toe cleavage." Wear the outfit with Stuart Weitzman shoes.

Blumarine sorbet green beaded dress $1215
Blumarine matching cardigan $920
Stuart Weitzman shoes $200

This Blumarine green beaded dress and matching cardigan is what Suze would describe as an "investment" piece. The look epitomizes the sexy sweater-dressing look. Throw away your pashmina; it's all about wrapping a cardigan around anything with beading. This outfit has incredibly special intricate beading on velvet in a mint sherbet color. Wear it with Stuart Weitzman shoes.
