Holiday celebrations and evening parties are around the corner, is your wardrobe party-ready? I decided to jumpstart my series of party outfit inspirational posts, once a week I will feature evening wears of a specific theme. Time flies so fast and before we know it, we´re cramming and unsure what to wear to which party.
So let´s start this series with dress-to-kill contemporary pieces that will surely make you sizzle, and by that, I mean make you look adorably hot! Although we´re bombarded with overdone statements which speak of the same, that black is elegant, we know that for most of us, this color is usually our last pick-me-up if we´re dressing for cocktail parties especially for Christmas and New Year parties. The reason is simple, we rather stand out.
Well, here are three looks that are made to give you a dramatic look to any formal event, and yes, they will make you stand out.
1. Black Feather Dress
Get the Look: 1) Dress, 2) Pumps, 3) Lipstick, 4) Watch, 5) Clutch
Your color may be minimalist but not your features. Black is given a whole new definition in this contemporary feather dress with sleeveless style, structured leather style bodice, lace contrast, and a subtly volume skirt made of layers of exquisite feathers.
Polish the dress with black dress pumps, and keep the accessories elegant in silver.

2. Black Faux Fur Coat
Get the Look: Coat, Clutch, Boots, Lipstick
I hate wearing original fur coats and jackets, at least since I saw a documentary of how beautiful creatures are slaughtered in the name of fashion, but I´m all for faux fur coats! This contemporary styled ELLIS coat features a layer of two tones of fur – black and dark brown.
Although it basically looks great with anything, you can add a pop of bright to the look by layering it over a lightweight rollneck sweater and red tailored trousers.
Complete the look with a pair of subtly fierce black ankle boots, and a black envelope clutch.

3. Dramatic Contemporary Dress
Get the Look: Dress, Pumps, Lipstick, Watch, Clutch
Are you vying for a dramatic entrance to an event? Take advantage of this one of a kind contemporary dress with modern edge. It has a cropped overlay to a stunning A-line silhouette with black and white flared skirt. I love its modest appeal but with exaggerated fullness and aura.

Without question, a sexy angular vamp black stiletto is perfect to complete the look. Accessorized with a white paisley patterned clutch and a silver wrist watch, the result is a coveted seasoned monochrome.
