Some Chic and Smart Party Season Styles 

The first thing you have to consider is that all (all, no euphemism) shops are clogged to the brim with sequined dresses, skirts, trousers, suits and shoes. We’re totally not anti-sequin – actually, we’re pretty smitten with the glitzy glam and the way it jazzes things up. But let’s be real, the world’s practically drowning in sequin getups. Maybe it’s high time we hunt down some quirky alternatives. Because, you know, we wouldn’t want our style to be just another sparkle in the sea of shimmer. To give you an idea, according to a UK survey of 2000 women, 14% had the bad luck of arriving at a party to find someone else wearing the exact same dress. But you’re reading the right article; Notorious Mag is here to help you with four chic and original party season styles.

1- It’s Time to Shine

2023? What a rollercoaster, right? Just peek at the headlines or those pesky bills in the mailbox. So, fashion’s throwing down the gauntlet – it’s telling us to fight the gloom with a bit of razzle-dazzle. Think glitter, glamour, and all that jazz. That’s why every shop you stroll into is practically screaming sequins. But hey, if you wanna dodge the sequin bandwagon and still sparkle like a disco ball, check out fabrics like brocade and lamé – they’re straight out of the 80s playbook. And don’t forget good ol’ velvet. Not only does it scream ‘I’m chic’ in the chill, but it’s also got that subtle sheen to keep your shine game strong. Last but not least, feathers and embellishments are pure glamour.

2- shimmering details

My absolute fave style hack? Going all-in on the bling and accessories. Earrings and brooches? Solid choices, for sure. But, as we’ve been yapping about, the 90’s choker is making a massive comeback. So, for a killer party look that’ll turn heads, why not jazz up your LBD with a glitzy choker? Add in some flashy earrings, killer heels, or a snazzy bag, and you’re golden.

3- Sparkle with your makeup

Let’s wrap up the year with some serious sparkle, shall we? But remember, when it comes to makeup, it’s all about quality. Tossing on too many sparkly shades can make your face look like a glitter bomb exploded on it – and that’s a big no-no unless you’re heading to a carnival instead .of a party. Choose your shimmer battlefield wisely: eyes or lips, not both. Just ’cause every TikTok trendsetter is going full glitter doesn’t mean it’s a real-world win. Take a leaf out of Chanel’s book – a slick shimmer on the lips and amped-up mascara on those lashes, top and bottom. That’s how you do glitz with class
