Great Fashion Looks for the Holidays

by Megan Matsuda – Stratford Hall IB School, Vancouver BC Nov 24, 2010

Urban Outfitters, a fashion and style-lover's paradise, is known for its trendy pieces and funky accessories. This definitely applies to their upcoming holiday collection, which features looks ranging from lacey and girly to slouchy and chic. Here's a few items on my wish list for winter, and some that you might want to add to your closet as well!

BDG Snowflake Pullover Sweater
This short and wide-necked sweater fits perfectly with cold winter evenings, sitting by the fire with a mug of hot chocolate. The beautiful stitching and fabric will keep you looking cozy (not bulky) and will flatter any figure.

Sparkle & Fade Crushed Velvet Bodycon Dress
Although you think you might need a perfect body for this tight dress, try playing with sizes. Perhaps buy one a size larger, and wear a braided belt with it for a bohemian feel. Or, wear one with cute patterned tights, boots and a circle scarf for a beautiful winter look.

Upson Downes by William Anzevino Exposed Keyhole Tee
This soft, V-necked tee has holes in all the right places. This "cut-out" style has been seen on many celebrities such as Rihanna and Leighton Meester, and it is fashionable in a casual and relaxed way.

Although I believe only some people can pull off suspenders, if you pair this with a simple white shirt, the look will definitely be original and interesting. Plus, you can always wear the menswear inspired trousers without the suspenders to work or for a night out. Add a pair of heels and your legs will look miles high in this straight fit and high-rise pant.
