Looking for the perfect outfit to wear to a holiday party can be a real challenge so seeing that you’re one of the most stylish guests will really give you that sense of accomplishment.

At the same time, go for a simple and classic style of earrings so that the focus remains on your layered necklaces. This will ensure that you look is chic and not tacky.
