Fab Fall Find: Embellished Holiday Tank

Looking for a "wow" piece to rock this holiday season? Then check out this sexy little number by MM Couture. It totally accentuates the upper back and collarbone region, while still leaving a lot to the imagination.

Pair with dark skinny denim or skinny black dress pants, sky high heels, and killer wrist bling and you are sure to look tres fabulous! Oh and don't forget your blazer--peel it off when you arrive indoors and you are sure to turn heads!

Trend Alert: Mixing Textures

Add a wow factor to your next ensemble by layering heavy seasonal fabrics (i.e. velvet, leather, fleece) and lighter, sexier textures (lace, knit, nylon). Not only will you stay warmer as the temperatures drop, but you will look more styled and fashion forward.
