What are the trends now for the fashion of winter at 2007 and 2008? Well, sequins and dresses are the in-thing for the 2007 and 2008 winter seasons.

Holiday fashion always calls for a little shine, but the sparkle and glitter shown in this season’s clothing has been just blinding! For the day-to-day wear, such glittery may prove to be too much, but it certainly is perfect for a party or the gathering? This is fine as long as the glittery look is not too overwhelming. In fact, some glitz and glamour can brighten anyone’s mood.

You should consider the juicy Couture Sequin Tank Dress. It is available in grey or black, this knit-and-sequined striped tank dress has been popping up in every online catalog and store. (It is so popular that there is a children’s version with short sleeves instead of sleeveless.) The dress is pretty bold and works well on taller frames. However, the thick stripes may overwhelm some smaller frames.

For such an investment, it is ideal to have more than one way to wear the pretty dress. A great option to consider is to belt it as a tunic, worn over skinny jeans or leggings with heels. Such combination makes it much more casual. Or loosely belt a trench over the dress so that the sequins can peek through. You can also consider the inexpensive satin trenches and coats, perfect for outdoor events. The coat can be part of the overall outfit. It’s a way to stay warm and yet fashionable.

Looking ahead to next spring: wear the dress over a white tank or white leggings and flip flops.

Another inspiring example for you: Alice + Olivia Paillette Jersey Dress. This black, spaghetti-strapped dress is covered with paillettes (large sequins). It is fun and has a slightly 1960s-vibe. You can put a belted or cardigan sweater over it during the day or, remove the sweater and add those heels at night.

You can use these examples for what’s currently in style – and remember that the same look can be achieved for lesser money. Scour “teen” stores or the Internet for the same type of dress for a lower cost.

Are you good at sewing? Well, then you can make your own!

You could be screaming - “No Sequined Dresses, Please”. Maybe you prefer a dress that doesn’t reflect light? Instead of a “little black dress”, go choose grey. It is the color of the season. Accessorize with holiday-friendly colors, including silver or cranberry. Add shine in other ways, such as shoes or handbag to brighten up the overall.

Covering Yourself Up: A sparkly shawl or wrap can be elegant, but if for use of both hands, go with a cardigan instead. You can wear it unbuttoned, or loosely thrown over shoulders for an even more casual look.

Can’t Live Without Jeans? Well, for those that can’t seem to part with their favorite jeans, be sure pay extra attention to the top and accessories. There are many tanks and sweaters that are as feminine and embellished as the dresses.

Or, No Sequins On My Top, Either: Holidays also call for coziness – a sweater looks especially nice when it’s not too tight and fit just nice. Choose cashmere (or soft cotton if allergies are an issue) and pay attention to details such as the buttons.

But remember, play up the sequins while they’re still in style..time will only tell what next year’s holiday season brings - have a great winter!
