- Dress the Part: Collect your standby items and try them on in advance. If you have one basic black dress and one "party dress" on hand, you'll be able to wear those to any impromptu event.
Tip: Dresses are easy wardrobe solutions when you don't want to fiddle with layers and separates.
Find a Standby: Shop for a holiday basic in your favorite color, such as a skirt of blazer. If you find a new favorite in one of your most flattering colors, you'll look and feel good.
- It's a Wrap: Find a wrap top or dress in a soft jersey fabric. If a special occasion more formal or more awkward, this is the perfect way to feel more at ease and enjoy yourself.
Tip: Buy plenty of tank tops for layering underneath deep v-necks. You can change the look completely, particularly if you match it with fun costume jewelry and accessories.

Tip: You can trade full shapewear for support stockings if you like wearing separates.
- Embrace Luxurious Fabrics: You will look a thousand times better and more dressed up when you wear luxurious fabrics like satin, chiffon,and velvet.
Tip: Igigi is a top source for luxurious plus items.
