Simple Elegance

New Year's Eve parties are coming quickly so I thought I'd get together a few great pieces for the festivities. If you're going to a party here are some of my head to toe favorite picks for such an event. When dressing up for a holiday party, I like to dress on the conservative side with a very simple dress that can say everything. I love strapless and very seldom wear any jewelry on the neck because I think with a beautiful strapless dress a woman's neck speaks volumes and is very sexy on its own -- with a great dress your neck will look beautiful bare. On the other hand, a great ring and/or bracelet and bag do the trick to set off just a bit of flare. What would your style be for such a party -- conservative or a bit more on the flashy side?
