If you plan on partying past midnight this New Year's Eve, skip the dress and throw on some pants for non stop dancing. Menswear for women raided the runways this past season. Feminine twists on men's dress up clothing are sticking around for the new year as well. This holiday outfit was inspired by the looks of Balmain, Ralph Lauren and Stella McCartney. And you'll be surprised how much less you'll need to spend to pull it off!
Sculptures, sketches and paintings inspire these fashion gifts for the artists in your life. From books to brooches, these unique gifts are better than any scented soap set!

A trend that grew from the runways of Miu Miu is good old fashioned pre-school glitter. Is there a better time to wear sparkle than the holidays. From shoes, to bags and even jewelry these craft-inspired accessories can brighten any festive ensemble.
My personal favorite is the silver brouges, as I've recently developed an obsession with these menswear inspired shoes.
These Lucite carved brooches conjure images of vintage Christmases when the ladies wore festive dresses, red or green cardigans, and topped off the look with iconic symbols of the holiday.
These hand carved hand carved and Swarovski crystal embellished pins are signed by designer Alexis Bittar and are available at exclusively at Nordstrom. Real fashion lovers will feel like, well, a kid on Christmas to find one of these keepsake pieces in their stocking.
