    I am so glad you talk about the cupcake dress. Even when I was looking for a graduation ball dress I decided to buy a long, very elegant one. Never really liked this short piece of garment. Now I am 25 and still don't understand the obsession with this type of dress. I had a photoshoot earlier this year wearing it and all I was thinking about the entire time I was wearing it was how incredibly short it was! How can anyone wear it in public, really?!

      I honestly would have been embarrassed to wear that at 16. Part of the fun of growing up and going out is looking like a grownup. Yet I see 60 year olds wearing this stuff. It looks like the maker did not want to pay for an adequate amount of material. If you have a rich fabric, you would want as much of it as possible. That said, there is an exception to every rule. I have a senior friend who wears tutus and combat boots and looks great. You have to find your own style, above all of these guidelines.

    The Pretty Dress Company has a dress style called the Tilly. It's vintage and glamourous! It comes in a fitted and a full skirt option, and three of the many colours offered are red, deep green, and navy blue velvet. They're warm, the tailoring and styling are excellent and classy, and the velvet adds a layer of warmth!

    Test for a "cupcake" dress - if it looks like it would work for an ice-skating competition if it were just a little shorter, walk away! And although I agree holiday sweaters can be tacky, a cashmere or high quality merino wool Fair Isle sweater with detailing only on the neckline can be very elegant for afternoon parties, I think.

    Here in Australia our Christmases are very often over the 40c mark. I've always recommended my girls to wear silks or cool linens, you cant go wrong with high end materials with a beautiful cut to them, plus they aren't cringeworthy in10 years time when you're looking back over family photographs

    Being a mountain girl here in California, jeans are the norm around here. My exception would be though is jeans that are flattering, no tears, and some dark in color. And also we wear sweaters a lot here. I try to keep it a solid color and very soft fabric including cashmere. I do have one sweater in fair isle design and it’s not bold and in a dark color

    Back in the 80s I owned a beautiful 'Little Black Dress ' by, believe or not, Betsy Johnson. People said I reminded them of the Singer Sade. It was a very sleek and elegant dress that was versatile. You could dress it up or dress it casual. It was below the knee and sort of mock turtle neck. It had an opening in the back "cut out" but it had mesh cover sewn behind. Yes it was form fitting, but not sleezy. It was a great dress.
    I'd also like to say that this is the first time I'm in total 💯 % agreement with the lovely Anna! When it comes to holiday elegance lets think outside the box!

    You are a grand young lady Anna. Its a joy knowing you teach others beautiful things. I too enjoy elegance. I think of the clothing I've been fortunate enough to wear. Not always expensive but always very tasteful. My mother taught me well..forever classy, NEVER over-done, always good lines. Most of the young ladies watching probably won't know the style icons from many years ago. Jacqueline Kennedy, a First Lady here in the U.S. in the early 1960s, and a Hollywood actress named Audrey Hepburn from the 50s & 60s. (Anyone remember the movie Breakfast at Tiffany's?) During her career, Audrey was dressed by none other than Hubert Givenchy. She was his muse. He loved dressing her and both women dressed impeccably well. I was a very young teen but was so drawn to the style of these two women. Girls at school (no more uniforms!) were beginning to follow the trends of the day while I could hardly wait for my next linen or wool suit. Of course, never stuffy or stuck up, i was just a teen who loved simple elegance. And now, that teen, all grown up, loves dressing, acting and being an 'elegant' lady. Yes, I am one of your 'elegant' ladies Anna dear.. Its beautiful what you teach Anna.... very special and many are blessed by the knowledge you share. Of course for you, best wishes, thoughts and dreams for the upcoming year!! 💕

      Just as there's nothing in this world that would stop me from wearing Christmas socks- but socks are my 'thing' and everyone who knows me even as an acquaintance knows I'm a hopeless collector. I live in L.A., which is just about the most casually dressed major city in the U.S., and my social circle is mostly upper-working-class (with some solidly middle-class relatives). I still dress up more than most people I know (yoga pants and jeans are everywhere, and I own not one pair). But the sock patterns make people smile, and they make me happy. Anna knows and encourages us to 'take what we want' from her advice, because not every point will apply to everyone.
