Ring It In! Stylist Advice on what to wear to celebrate New Year’s Eve at home

Dear Sharon: I am not planning a big night out but still want something special to wear on New Year's Eve. As a mater of fact, I'm never one to really go all out on New Year's Eve but that doesn't mean that I don't like to celebrate in some small way. At best, we are going next door for a champagne toast with a few neighbors, but most likely, my husband and I will hang in and stay cozy. Is there something simple that you can suggest so I feel a bit more glam than usual but still homey? Thank you... love your site! --A.K. (via fashion advice) Dear A.K.: You are not alone in wanting to stay close to

Dear Sharon: I'm getting exhausted from trying to figure out what to wear to holiday parties as this season progresses. I still have a few more fetes left- some are casual, some are kind of dressy. What in tarnation can I wear without having to buy something new each and every time I have to show my face at a party?

Kate Moss at Mulberry Spring/Summer 2012 - London Fashion Week - Arrivals

I"ll Have What She's Having: Super casual light chambray jeans & shirt with a heavy dose of gold jewelry Let's face it, so many of us spend a good part of our lives in jeans- from working at home, to mommy duties, to casual offices, there are not many days where many of us have the opportunity-- or need- to get all tzjued up. But you still want to pull off chic even in a casual setting, who doesn't? Kate Moss, spotted wearing super casual jeans and a chambray shirt, in a way that acts as the perfect base to layer up all those glam items that predictably sit in our closets with no place to be worn. Why not add

No one is always perfect. There are moments in one's life where you have had to have made some fashion missteps, it's only a part of growing up. It's normal, I swear, to not be perfect 365 days a year. But to keep following the trendy flock without looking in a mirror or paying mind on how that fad works on YOU, is just plain silly... particularly when there are some dang nasty, fugly, tacky, and unflattering looks around. Considering the end of the year is just around the corner, there's nothing like Turkey Day to share some style duds of the ugliest fashion trends that wreck my nerves.

Ultra-cute actress Jaime King donned one of the most playful little-black-dresses that we've seen on the red carpet in a long while at the 16th annual GQ "Men Of The Year" party last week in Los Angeles. In basic black, the dress's flouncy a-line hem, graphic embroidery and peek-a-boo bust-line go well with King's simple make-up and elegant, sleek hair for a look that's full of grown-up energy. Take a cue from the actress this holiday season and look for polished pieces that make a play on traditional silhouettes with unexpected details that are reserved enough to have a forever-chic appeal. On King, you can see that the abbreviated proportions of the dress are just right while her Adeler 14k

I’ll Have What She’s Having: Work wonders in a sheer & maxi combination Actress Emily Blunt looked radiant in a decadent art-deco inspired beaded Gucci dress at a recent LACMA event in Los Angeles while donning an ingenious combination of a sheer panel paired with a dramatic maxi length. And while heavy beading, a fitted shape and a sheer panel below the knee reads as too many ideas for one dress on paper, her Gucci number works thanks to a simple, non-revealing tank cut top half and tonal black bead work. But Blunt looking va-va-voom in a dress on the red carpet is not the only thing we'd like to point out here since it also brings light to making

Eva Green an AW11 black split sleeve dress and Pre AW11 leopard print peep toe shoes by Alexander McQueen to the ‘The Rum Diary’ London

I'll Have What She's Having: Streamlined and bold slits in just the right places There's something about actress Eva Green's smart sexiness that reminds us of the raw style of Italian actresses back in the 1950's via Veneto days. It's a control over non-fussiness and an emphasis on dynamic sex appeal and sultriness, best mastered in sleek, non revealing lines. Case in point: Eva's on trend, but not trendy, double-slit & slit sleeve Alexander McQueen LBD from AW11. Oh, and those luscious leopard print peep toe shoes also by Alexander McQueen.

Think of this as your "How To Wear Low Heels" tip sheet... Blame it on the abundance of too-high heels, walking behind girls fumbling in them, or our admiration for the cool retro sophistication that Rochas has been championing as of late, but we are beginning to rethink the short heel and their recent wearable reemergence on the scene. Once matronly and down-right blase, the updates to what we consider the "smart" heel height offer an entirely new way to think about proportion and comfort. From gram to grand slam, there's plenty out there to give you an alternative to ho-hum ballerina flats. >> SHOPPING GUIDE: Low Heels We'll take the printed Rochas slingbacks above and our top three picks as featured below and

I'll Have What She's Having (from the waist up): Rihanna manages to ruin a few very good pieces with some dang tacky tights and a girdle for a dress. There, I said it! Givenchy large size Antigona bag in black nappa leather, as worn by Rihanna. Available at Barney's Rihanna was sporting some super chic fashion elements on her 3AM return to her hotel after her concert in Paris. There's the well-proportioned floppy fedora (unlike that over-sized Kim Kardashian monstrosity), the covetable cropped jacket, and the to-die-for Givenchy by Riccardo Tisci “Antigona” bag... all in classic black. But, what is going on with those nasty sheer thigh highs, and the peachy body con skirt in the color of an old

With all the insane streams of money coming her way, Kim K still manages to look cheap. We get celebrity style pr tip sheets of almost every celebrity and celebutard that you can imagine wearing something or another. Usually they end upon the trash, but this time I couldn't bear not to share this Kim Kardashian "celebrity style" alert as it's so tacky that I've got to hope no one out there wants to make it stick. We all know that the Kardashian klan own a batch of boutiques, but did she have to wear the entire accessory department all at once? In defense of the Boulee Brynn dress, it's perfectly lovely in its BoHo styling, uneven hemline, and "Downtown"

Rihanna Rocks Some Very Cool Sunglasses- That is if you can get past the rest of her prom queen Muppet look

I'll Have What She's Having: If you look beneath the overworked mess Yes, Rihanna, when it comes to your celebrity style, sometimes, well, most of the time, you work the living daylights out of it. Exhausting. But, the rest of you can find a golden needle in this mishmash of too many style things... Despite Rihanna's questionable 80's era Miss Tennessee inspired up-do and the fact that her feathery ensemble looks akin to a Jim Hensen Muppet creation, what does work and what one could take note of is her exotic cream snakeskin covered Linda Farrow Luxe shades.
