The perfect way to add some variety and flare to your look is with jewelry. Whether you are looking to make a statment with a bold necklace, or you just want to add a little shine, the right jewelry can transform your look. This season we are loving fancy feathers, layered bracelets and flower details to make your look flirty and feminine.
This week, you can stock up on your favorite pieces from Dots with our B1G1 50% off Jewelry Sale! Every girl loves a little sparkle in her life.
This winter is the perfect time to show your wild side when it comes to your wardrobe. From the runway to the streets, animal print and tie-dye denim has shown up everywhere, leopard-spotted, python-printed and cheetah-stamped graphics are giving your skinny jeans a face lift.
These styles can be worn much as one would wear regular blue or black jeans, since the print is light and the texture barely there. An equally patterned top or blouse isn’t the ideal partner because it will look like one big blur. Instead, wear these with a thick, striped pattern that is chunkier and bolder than what’s happening on the pants.
To keep things more classic, and maybe less complicated, stick with slightly bumped-up basics. Try a solid orange or yellow sweater, instead of toying with more print. The combination will look fresh and upbeat.

During the holiday season there will be numerous parties to attend as well as family gatherings, so you may tire of the same old traditional LBD hanging in your closet. Here are 5 ways to mix up it up this holiday season.
1. Monochromatic – Keep it classy like SJP and cover up with a pair of black nylons and a pointy toe pump. This look is perfect for professional work parties or family events.
2. Sparkle & Shine – Be dramatic in a black sparkly number like Katherine Heigl’s and accessorize it with an eye-catching statement necklace. This look is best for a night out with the girls or a date with your hubby.
3. Proud to be Curvy! – Take a style cue form Sofia Vergara and enhance your shape with a bustier style dress for a sexy vivacious look.
4. Rocker Chic – If you’re not into being super feminine with your dress and you want to give your look a tough edge, rock a pleather style LBD like Julie Bowen from Modern Family. This look can be very versatile, it covers you up enough to wear it to any occasion this season!
5. Short and Sassy – Charlize Theron is seen here in a daring above the knee LBD. This dress definitely a no no for any professional office parties, but great for showing off those legs!
We love country starlet Carrie Underwoods trendy style! The recent winner of country’s artist of the year award and wife to a pro hockey player this girl is constantly on the move. The one thing she takes with her wherever she goes, besides her dog Ace, is her flawless style. On the red carpet she always goes for daring and trendy dresses, including this one shoulder animal print one that she wore to Country’s BMI awards. Carrie mixes two of this seasons hottest trends all in one, way to go! She paired them with classic black pumps and a blindingly sparkly clutch. She made this look extra special by accessorizing with a cocktail ring and a pair of diamond encrusted feather style earrings.

Here are the Top 5 Holiday Style Tips :
1. Eye-catching jewelry is key. If there was ever a time to pile on an armful of bangles, wear a gigantic bib necklace, or pull out the cocktail ring that’s the size of a doorknob, it’s the holidays. Don’t be afraid to make a statement with your jewelry, just try to keep the rest of your look simple.
2. Try a bold, festive beauty look. Fans of a smokey eye, a bold red lip, or an intricate up-do, rejoice! We all know that these looks are certainly not appropriate for every day, so try something more directional and daring when the holidays roll around. We’re dying to experiment with bedazzled headbands, à la Blair Waldorf and Miu Miu Resort 2012!
4. Experiment with textures and layers. Simplicity should be left to another season – during the holidays, your look should be festive and interesting. Leather, lace, faux fur, or all-embellished-everything, give it a try!
5. Start off with some statement outerwear. Chances are it’ll be freezing outside when you head to your holiday soirées each evening, so a chic coat is a must have. It’s the first thing people see, and you can use it to pull your entire look together. Make sure that you find one that’s perfectly fitted – you can always take it to your friendly neighborhood tailor for some alterations – and if you want to step it up in the style department, try one with a fashion-forward silhouette or an interesting texture, like fur or embroidery. One last tip: You can make your overcoat stand out by embellishing it with a broach or cinching it with a belt!

Star style of the week is Jessica Alba! We caught her best fashion moment while out and about this month, and boy does this girl have style! Being a mother of two doesn’t slow this fashionista down, or prevent her from wearing 4 inch heels!
We especially love how she layers her outfits, from jackets and scarfs to fashion sweaters, it’s a perfect combination for achieving a cozy cute look.
Check out Dots to find some great pieces to layer with this season.
The fur trend is the perfect hot off the runway look you need this season! However, if you can’t afford the real thing, be warm, glam and guilt-free with faux fur! If you’re looking to invest on some luxury for your wardrobe, but find it unsettling to be spending your entire Christmas bonus on one item, you might want to try accessorizing with faux fur. Faux fur today is made to look and feel identical to the real thing so no one will be able to tell whether it’s real or fake, unless of course you run into Tim Gunn!
Check out our huge assortment of faux fur items at Dots.

We first saw Nikki Reed in the teen drama, Thirteen and then again the hit TV series the O.C. Now, she is known as one of the Cullen sisters in The Twilight Saga. We must say her career has definitely come along way in the last few years! We love her style seen here in an acid-green Michael Kors dress with a thigh-high slit and cut-out details at the Breaking Dawn screening in New York City on November 16. We love her modern and sophisticated look with pulled back hair and statement red lips. She always knows how to keep it classy while showing some skin.
