One of the great things about this time of year is that there are so many holiday events and that requires some fabulous clothes. You’re already out there shopping so make sure you keep your eyes peeled on something fabulous for you to wear on New Year’s Eve. Why look now? It’s smart planning because after your gifts are all unwrapped, stores will be bare of the great dresses and accessories for New Year’s Eve.
If you are traveling over the holidays, whether to St Moritz or to the Caribbean, buying ahead is essential. Of course, one can buy things when you arrive but having everything with you already makes for a more relaxing vacation. If you are staying in town, you will be the best-dressed woman at your New Year’s Eve gala!
Staying in town
Share the ringing in of the New Year with friends and family and know that photos of the event will show off your fashion savvy. Escada has a dazzling outfit that will sparkle as brightly as any fireworks. This black strapless sequin pencil dress priced at $4990.00 is spectacular.

Snowbound
If the mountain terrain is your destination, make sure you have an unforgettable outfit for the snow filled evenings and warm enough to ward off the cold. Yes Virginia leather coats are unusual because of their soft leather, depth of color and interesting designs. This beautiful Tuscan Lamb coat in a rich crimson red and lined with a shearling dyed in a pomegranate color to enhance the look of the coat, is an incredibly warm and very easy lightweight coat to wear.
Shown as an ankle length coat, Yes Virginia will cut the coat to the length you desire. It is shown with cuffs and collar folded back. The collar has a bit of wiring to be able to turn it up and protect your neck against the cold, thus forgoing the necessity of a hat or scarf.
The leather and shearling in each coat have different striations thus making each coat a one of a kind design, priced at $7400.00. The belt is an extra accessory and also made of lambskin and comes in brown or gold metallic, priced at $250.00 and all available at www.yesvirginia.biz or call 416-964-5877.
