Earlier today, I had a friend of mine ask me about an outfit she could possibly wear for a New Year's party. I figured why not post up an outfit for you ladies for the upcoming holiday-season parties. This specific look is something I played off from helping Musarrat (the friend and hopefully, on her way to becoming a fantastic designer). This young lady is pretty darn tall, 6'1". The obvious is she can be intimidating, especially in a society where being that tall isn't the norm. In fact, most tall women can come off intimidating, but the fact is it's not about the height that scares people, it's the confidence.
When a woman, short or tall, has that confident attitude, others find themselves in a high level of insecurity. There is nothing wrong with being short or tall. Remember, ladies, the essence of style comes from confidence; it's the mind set you put yourself in - being comfortable under your own skin. It's the balance between glamour and humility. Before you look great, you have to feel great. That's called being chic, that's called having class.

Once you enter the party, take the jacket off (place it somewhere safe) and just let loose. It may be tempting to go higher on the heels on your shoes, but remember ladies, it's a party. You want to feel relaxed and I know you'll want to shake your tush off on the dance floor. Another obvious step is to simply take your shoes off if the venue allows it. Have fun, ladies. More party looks coming soon...
